march was good, but with one exception.
still a little cold, but definitely starting to get a few good days.
downtown warrensburg does a charitable
ladies night event and this year was luau theme.
it was fun because kassie came down for it and it's
always nice to get out of the house for a night and
hang with the girls.
(i might have had toooooooooo much... fun)
brette finished up her basketball season and she loved it.
i know she'll want to play again next year.
ronnie hooked her up with a basketball goal down at the
shop, so she can play around anytime she wants.
(still unable to get the ball to the basket though, lol)
margie came down for a visit, which is always amazing.
she brought her kiddos and i took off
work so we could hang at shannon's.
reid ended up being SUPER sick - like more sick
than i've ever seen.
she was throwing up all. the. time.
i still managed to see margie, but i spent the rest of the
weekend taking care of poor reid.
we've met some new friends too.
ronnie started hanging out with a new friend,
and he has boys around our girls age.
they've hit it off big time and they've liked playing together.
and now for the bad news.
we lost little louie this month.
he was having such a hard time breathing and
it got really bad.
it was constant and i felt by keeping him alive,
we were actually slowly letting him suffocate.
ronnie couldn't do it.
i took him to the vet and the vet told me that i really
needed to consider quality of life and if this was
what i wanted for louie.
obviously not.
i took him back home and got ronnie and the girls.
we fed him eggs and bacon and then went back to the vet.
it was very peaceful and we loved on him and talk to him the whole time.
it's still very sad - i loved our little tater hog and
i feel guilty for being the one to push us to do this,
but i do think it was for the best.
the girls are brutal because they don't really get it
so they just talk about it all the time.
plus, they get confused about him being in heaven,
when they helped us bury him in the back yard, so
we have to explain it over and over.
ronnie and i had him for 10 years.
he was grumpy at night, slept all the time, did
spin moves when you were getting out his food.
he loved car rides and a licking ronnie's nose.
he slept with us every night above our heads and never
learned how to jump on or off furniture.
here's to you, bubba. 2008-2019
and then just to end on something more positive,
here's a couple pics of my gorgeous girls.
