Jaisey's First Snow :)

Here is a pic of our little kitten, Jaisey, experiencing her first snow :)

Letting her go...

We had to put our 13+ year old yellow lab to sleep yesterday {Tippy}. It was extremely hard however age was catching up with her and she was just getting worse. Her hips were giving out more and more everyday and along with that her hearing has been gone and her bladder was leaking. With winter coming she was just going to be more miserable. The hardest part was that she was still completely with us and in great spirits and still full of life. Letting her go was the best thing we could do for her. We had great times with her and she brought so much JOY & LOVE to our family, she was always there to cheer you up even if she was in trouble. You are missed Tippy and we know you are now with your best friend, Lucy. Lucy was our black lab that had to be put down 2 years ago. These two girls will forever hold a special place in our hearts!! >

"A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbol means nothing to him. A waterlogged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn't care if you are rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his. It was really quite simple, and yet we humans, so much wiser and more sophisticated, have always had trouble figuring out what really counts and what does not." - marley & me

Its Been So Long!

Wow I cannot believe its been so long since I posted. Summer has came and went now its fall! Actually half way through November. its crazy how fast this year is going.

I could really use some of the following about now...

Highs of 70s & 80s, warm breezes, flip flops and riding w. the top down...

All the above are signs that Summer is right around the corner :) I am so excited! Anyways, I am back to the blog world I have been super busy with school, lia sophia and hanging out with friends and family.

Heres a little update:

We got a new campsite at the campground. Its pretty sweet! Aubrey and I spent all week hanging up lights and cleaning up the site and inside the camper. This summer is going to be awesome! along with the new site we also got a boat last spring :)

I am also going to be watching Brooklyn and Tyler this summer and am getting included on their pool pass. So if I am not at the river I will be laying out at the pool!

Other plans for the summer:

Florida on wednesday June 16th with Anthony to see his brother, Seth.

OBX on Sunday June 20th with my whole family through the following Saturday

That first Sunday I am home my plane leaves at 9 a.m. for Milwaukee for the Lia Sophia conference! I am going to be really busy at the beginning of the quarter just traveling! Below are pictures of our new campsite. we are going to paint the camper and do a couple touchup but other than that its perfect!

So today I deactivated my facebook account in order to prepare for finals, I am considering opening it back up during spring break then shutting it down for spring quarter. It is way too much of a distraction and i cannot afford to let it make my grades slip. So there will most likely be more blogging :) Hope everyone is having a great weekend and enjoys the week ahead

Lets Be Honest...

I haven't shaved my legs in 4 days
and I slept on the couch last night, just for the fun of it :)

Yesterday I bought my first gym membership and cannot wait to use it today with my bestie Kayla. However last night I ate a whole sleeve of Girl Scout Thin Mints, I just had to tell myself thats why I bought the membership!

I have been procrastinating like crazy here lately and its starting to bite me in the butt!

I havent developed a huge church-skipping habit on sundays. Last week I didnt go, week before I did, and who knows how many weeks before that I didnt go. This is not good! I used to go to church every Sunday. I am going to try to start doing that again.

Well I hope everyone is able to come out tell their own truths of the week :) It really helps you get stuff of your chest. I also hope everyone has a great weekend.

Love ALways
Britt
