Forever And A Day...

I can't believe how long it has been since I last posted!  Oh my goodness gracious!  So, obviously so much has happened since then...

BIG THINGS:
- Ashley graduated from high school!  That was so happy and sad, all at the same time... it makes a parent realize how fast life really goes... hold on everyone, the ride isn't nearly long enough, and even when you think you aren't going to make it through something, enjoy that small stressful time too, because you won't remember the blip on the screen once you get to the end of the ride... the only things that stand out are the wonderful things, like watching someone you gave birth to (Tory), and someone that has become your child-in-life, no matter what happens, walk to center stage to shake hands on a big part of her life, and turning with a HUGE smile to look on a brand new adventure, one that doesn't hold you in as much right now (that can change again down the road)... but it is a good, good thing.  Way to go Ashley!

- We had a WONDERFUL summer!  Lots of fun and family time!  We took a few small day trips with the kids, which was so much fun!

- Adelyn is officially potty trained!  Whoohoo!  That was SO great to have fully done!  No accidents anymore (or at least very random if they do happen).

- And summer came and went so fast on us... so now we have a freshman in college!  Wow!  We have a first grader already!  Trent's growing so fast!  And Adelyn is in three-year-old preschool three days a week!  WOW!  WOW!  WOW!

- Tory and I are in our second year at the kennel together, and things are going really well.  We are working hard, overcoming obstacles, and loving life!  Thank you life!
