Jill, Gunner, and Zip

I’m surprised my mom hasn’t fussed at me for not posting lately, but we’ve all been a little preoccupied.  The last 6 weeks have been busy with the start of school, wedding planning, MK, and family illnesses. 

The start of the school year has been much smoother than last year.  Personally, I’m struggling with the motivation to do what needs to be done, but somehow it all manages to get done on time. 

Wedding planning (yay! how exciting!) has gone so smoothly…so much like our relationship has been.  We’ve set a date (April 4 09), booked a site, a photographer, purchased a dress, picked out flowers, arranged for a caterer, and so much more!  I really want to have every detail set in stone so that I can enjoy our wedding day.  About the only thing left to decide is where to go on our honeymoon.  Any suggestions for an affordable honeymoon destination?

I’ve also decided to really Kick-off and get my Mary Kay business going.  There are so many expenses coming up in the next year or so that I need the extra income.  So, if your’e interested in purchasing some MK products, let me know.  If you’re interested in a FREE FACIAL let me know.  

The last several weeks have been full of family health issues.  My grandfather’s health continues to decline and there have been a few setbacks.  All in all, his spirits are great and he’s still loving every minute he gets to spend with his family.   The real scare was my mom’s health.  She began having intense abdominal pains a few weeks ago.  After tests, they thought she has a mass or a blockage. Our biggest fear was the big “C” word.  Praise our Lord it turned out to be an acute/severe case of diverticulitis.  I’m so thankful that her condition is treatable and not terminal.  Thanks to all of you who have prayed for her!

I wanted to include a picture of my “babies.”  Yesterday we had a “play day” romping in the pasture and taking pictures.  They could be professional dog models (if such a thing existed!).
