40 Years!

This last weekend My sisters and I...and our spouses; took our parents out for their 40th Wedding Anniversary. Our Cousin works for Grand America Hotel and we were able to get a sweet deal on a very nice room for them! We all met at Tepanyaki where for the first time in YEARS we enjoyed an awesome dinner together!! It was way cool to sit around the table and talk about our childhood memories and reflect on the awesome relationships we have! Mom and Dad said their room was the size of the upstairs of their house...and was a spectacular view!! They related this whole experience as if they were in a movie titled "Ma and Pa Kettle go to New York". We were all so happy that we could pull off this awesome outing!!
I can honestly say that I have the best family in the WORLD!!! My parents mean the world to me and I could not get through life without them being part of it!! I Love You Mommy and Daddy!! Congrats on 40 years!! Only 40 more to go....hehe.

In other news....

Last week Kylie tried out for a part in the school play. She had rehearsed and rehearsed the part...as if she already had it!! She was SO anxious to go back to school on Monday to see if she got it....Naturally...SHE DID!!! She will be playing the part of Cersi in a play about Ancient Greece!! We are so proud of her!!! Also, she has been working very hard to keep her grades up so that she can start dancing again. On Monday when we checked her grades....nothing below a B-!!! Way To Go Kylie!!!! She is making so many awesome improvements!! We Love Her!!!

On a more somber note...

Good Ole' Doc is not doing so good anymore. We had to take him into the vet yesterday because he has been declining very fast. The Vet was very understanding to our desires to keep him around as long as possible. They put him on some pain meds to keep him comfortable as he continues to decline. One thing that we learned was that one sign that a dogs Heart is in failure is if they continually hack. Well, as you all know....that has been a Doc trait since the day we got him. Unfortunately it keeps getting worse. Now each time he hacks...we panic wondering if this is the real thing. We don't have much longer with him and we are coming to terms with that. It sure isn't easy though. I have started reading a book called "Marley and Me". It is about a guy and his dog!! I am hoping that it will help me cope with what is to come.

Jeff will start a new job on December 6th! It will last until after the Sundance Festival, he will be transporting people from the airport to Park City!! He is pretty excited and we are told it is actually pretty good money!! In the meantime he has been an awesome help to me at my store!!

I hope everyone is doing well and Healthy!!!
