So far this year has not been so kind to us!
One night I was driving home and it was freezing cold and all the sudden my window just shattered...talk about a really loud noise!




Then last week we had to put Shelby to sleep, we have had her for years (she would have been 11 this spring) and she was such a great dog! She was so sick, her kidneys were not working like they were supposed too and she had a heart murmur. We changed Shelbys diet to special food and gave her 3 pills a day but it still wasn't enough. I was sure I would have a few more months with her but on Monday she was walking kind of funny and wouldn't eat and then when I went to bed I couldn't get her to come down...when I woke up Tuesday she was pretty much in the same place and not moving her legs at all so I knew what we had to do. The most devastating choice I have ever had to make. I was lucky enough to be able to pick a little velvet bag, a cedar box with writing that says Shelby Dog and also an ornament with her paw print, I can not wait to get them. That same day Aaron's grandpa went into open heart surgery...I will talk about that in my next post!
