Pond with Dazy Dog

Brayden and I went to our pond. We love going there.
It is so peaceful.
 
 
Dazy loves it.


 
Its so cute to see how she keeps an eye on the boys...
 
 
I felt like there was the wave of emotion over me this time. Knowing this would be our last visit to the pond. I have so many good memories here- Chandler and his friends on his boat, Brayden getting in with just his diaper on, us launching our cucumber boats we made...
This pond has meant alot to us, we will really miss it.
 
We do know God has many great new
memories in store for us-
I pray that we always cherish these.

Chandler is having a great season.
He is playing for 3 different teams,

We are very proud of him!

Under Contract

It was alot of work to get the house ready.
But it SOLD to the first people that looked at it.
(we were out of town with 2 other families,
enjoying a vacation!)
 

 
I am REALLY going to miss this house. We have so many good memories here. God has certainly been good to us...this home has been such a blessing.
I could cry thinking of our last days here.

Missing our boys

 
Chandler went to Costa Rica for 7 days. Brayden went to Baltimore for 4. It was nice for Chad and I to have some time alone and for me to have some time to study for my test on Tuesday....But we REALLY missed them.

One thing I noticed about the week that was beautiful...was when Chandler called from another country, he wanted to talk to his brother. Today, when Chandler was finally home and Brayden was still gone, Bray called- all he wanted was his brother.

Also, Chandler told us that he got something for Brayden in Costa Rica...so that night when I spoke to my girlfriend that Brayden is with- I asked her to have Brayden get his brother something small- she said that was the first thing he did, he already had!

To see the way they love and care for eachother, now that they are older, means so much to me. It warms my heart. It's what I have always hoped for with our boys...that even though they are almost 8 years apart- that they are eachothers best friend. They are.

Chandler got Chad and I, plenty of Costa Rican coffee and a french press...He did great with using his sunscreen and has lots of great memories! They are both so blessed to get these travel oppurtunities!

Glad our boys are home, safe. ~ melissa
