Eclipse Movie

After an emotionally draining day, I was looking forward to seeing the new Twilight movie. We had a chance to see it Tuesday night at 8:00 not midnight!!!! It is such a good movie, they just get better everytime! I will post pictures when I get them from my friend.....

Family Tragedy...

Yesterday we lost our dog Maya. She passed away from something similar to a heart attack. It was very hard on the kids and surprisingly me and Darin. I had my friends kids yesterday and we were all in the pool, when Conner came out and said Maya slipped on the floor and is not getting up. I went in to check on her and immediately called Darin to get home and take her to the vet. I called the vet to find out what I should do and they said get her her now.... She is 105 pds, I cant lift her!! By the time I got off the phone she had stopped breathing. I called Darin back to tell him she was gone. I hurried and got 8 kids out of the pool, my neighbor came and got 3 kids (thanks Emily) and I took ours and some of Kim's kids to the vet after Darin got home and loaded her in the truck. The put us in a room at the vets office and let us say goodbye. It was a very sad time and Nickola especially will miss her. We have had her almost all of Nickolas life. Zackery is very hopeful she will get resurrected and in the mean time he is very glad that Uncle Jake is taking care of her for us!! So sweet...............
