While most of us go about our daily lives, we never know the struggles of others. If we did it would make us appreciate our lives much more than we do. We think our trials are big but I feel like others are bigger than mine. That is why I am posting this site, it is my friend who's daughter is suffering from a brain tumor. They are in need of donations to give her the medical care she needs. Feel free to take a look.

Madison was so excited to be able to bath Gucci, Gucci on the other hand was not as excited, but the picture is so worth the little water Madi and I got on us. Gucci has been so much fun. She has the cutest little personality and the kids are having such a good time with her.
















Last night Madi and Gucci were laying in my bed, Madi was sound asleep and Gucci was snuggled up next to her. I thought it was so cute I had to take a picure but everytime I would get ready to click, Gucci would look up at me.

Easter and our new addition

This year for Easter I bought the kids a new puppy. Madison has begged for one for so long. I knew for weeks before they were getting one and I couldn't keep the secret so I told Kennedee a couple weeks before. We have all been very excited. I picked up the puppy on the way to my parents on saturday morning. I spent the day with Jaime baking things to put in an Easter basket for Aunt Mame. Stran liked the puppy as long as he didn't have to have her on his lap. That made him cry. We took the Easter basket and the puppy to show Aunt Mame, (Ronnie had 2 Shitzu's (sp?) who looked just like Gucci). Aunt Mame teared up and held her on her lap most of the time we were there. On Easter sunday I was so excited for the kids to come to my parents so I could show them the dog, she had been so good, no whining, no accidents and very loving. On saturday when I was driving, Kennedee called me and Gucci was whining, Madison started screaming saying that is a puppy, I can hear it and I had to tell her it was Stran playing with a squeaky toy. She bought it. On sunday I expected her to scream and cry, but she didn't. I had the camera on her and Jaime had the video camera. Dad held the puppy and walked around the corner, Madison looked and him and turned her head and did a double take, her mouth dropped and she jumped up and down, she ran to him and took the puppy from him. I cried (of course), Kennedee and mom teared up. Madison has been so happy with her little puppy. Luckily it was spring break and Madison was able to stay and grandma and grandpas and keep the puppy with her. Everyone who sees this little dog falls in love with her. She is so much fun and loves to play and cuddle. Madison has already taken her for a walk in the doll stroller and Gucci loved it. She is a wonderful addition to our family. She is very loved and gets allot of attention.

I am in love!!!

I will explain that header in a bit.
If you can believe it we are getting busier with soccer. The spring season is here and we just got back from Vegas. Kennedee's team took first place and played very well. They didn't get scored on once. They play in two championship games this week for indoor. And they are practicing or playing 6 days a week. It is exhausting. Kennedee's dad does come down and help take her to practice. I can't wait until she gets her license and can go on her own. I know Madi will like that too. You can only play at so many parks so many times before it gets old. But as long as Kennedee wants to play and puts forth the effort I will continue to take her as many times as it takes.
Madi is practicing hard for her summer dance show. She loves to go to dance every week. It is her time to shine.
I have been given this a lot of thought and I have finally broke down and taken the plunge. My heart has been stolen.

This little puppy will be waiting for the kids on sunday when they come home from their dads on Easter. I went and saw her tonight and was planning on the little boy but this little girl stole my heart. She is absolutly adorable and I can't wait for the kids to see her. Madison is going to freak out. She has wanted a dog so bad and every time we go to Park City we go into the dog shelter and she cries when we leave because she wants to take one home with her. This little puppy is so sweet and cuddly and I think she will be a great addition to our family.
