Audrey thanking her Granny!

Keep up with things that don't make headlines, that you should really know.

Help Him!

This is Roman.

Roman needs your help.

He has stomache cancer, along with food allergies.

Old Pics

I found pics of Audrey and Julia.

Joni, look how young they look! Oh my Gosh- this was when Travis was a little bitty baby- so the girls were just barely 2.

I cannot believe how grown up they are now!

Zero

These pics will give you a little taste of what our Zero is like!

He is such a mess.

I think he was still hungry!

Pap Paw's Birthday

On my dad's birthday, we had my parents over to our house. Trying to go out to eat and do cake with Trav is so hard.

We made a Travis friendly cake and even had some special candles for my dad (he did not like them very much!)

Thank God that his bday wasn't on the same day as the walk this year. Just the day after.

Our present presentation.

Travis waiting to sing "appybirday"

Audrey patiently waiting- notice her new shirt.

My dad, trying to laugh at the candles.

We called DabiAunt while we were singing happy birthday. Poor thing had 4 tests the next week, so she wasn't able to come home.

It's cold in here!

I was getting the kids ready for bed, and had few little chores to do in the mean time.

I cam out of my room and this is how Audrey was set up on the couch. I asked her what was going on and she told me "It's so cold in here."

Poor baby!

I had already gotten on to them about dragging all the blankets out for a "tent " (thanks Mam Maw!), that she didn't want to get in any more trouble.

Zero came to keep her company.

For those of you that do not know our Gilley ran away. We are devastated! (Especially me, Derik gave me that dog on my 21st birthday, after the death of my Tinky.) We all miss him so much. I miss his little yap when he wanted my attention. I miss getting onto him. I miss seeing his poor little face when Audrey would stuff him in a stroller and drag him around. Our guy friends say that they wouldn't want to live here either if they were stuffed in strollers and dog beds all day.

So RoRo has been consoling all of us. Unfortunately RoRo thinks he is the size of Gilley!

We just pray that he is bringing joy to an old lady. The thought of some other kids enjoying him really gets me. Gilley would be perfect for some old lady. I am almost certain that someone took him. When I go walking a can hear him barking. No one has responded to our posters.
