Doc, Doctor Muffins, Doc'ers, Batman....

On a trip to pick up Bar-B-Que for Willie!
On a sad note...about 2 1/2 weeks ago we found out that what we thought were seizures Doc was having, was a brain tumor. Doc had his first episode on New Year's Day and I distinctly remember it. He didn't start getting bad until about a month or so ago. Last Friday, August 12th my parents had to make a tough decision to put our "Buddy" down.

His favorite place to lay

It was about 10 years to the day that we put our previous dog, Max down with stomach cancer. I hadn't really realize it until talking to Will one night. I will definitely miss coming home to this energetic pup! Barking like he hadn't seen you in years when it had been only a few hours! He was like clock work...Out to get the paper in the morning...Treat around 11:00....Mail around 2:00...And then always trying to trick someone to take him out front one more time throughout the day! He loved it! He hated when we went swimming, and loved riding in the car.

Enjoying the Snow on Christmas 2009

Playing outside February 2010

On a HAPPY note! I loved meeting so many new friends at the JLD Retreat a couple of weeks ago! What a pleasure it is to be apart of this group of girls! Life is starting to get busy, and I can't believe summer is already over with...where has the time gone?! I got to spend last Saturday with my parents and had such a wonderful time. It is so nice to live close and be able to see them!

Today I kept thinking about moving into Collins as a Freshman at Baylor! 2 of my cousins moved into the dorms...I absolutely can not believe they are starting as Freshman this year! I remember move-in day 8 years ago! Absolutely crazy and they are about to start the best 4 years of their lives!
