Back in the USA, butt pain, and a memorial....

The kids are home from Jamaica! I picked Kevon and Meghan up at the Kingston Ferry last night! It was so good to see them! Naturally, they are so tan! Got such a big hug from Kevon. I think he missed me and home. He's become a homebody. And our Meghan was beautiful and glowing and cold. So happy they're home. I bet Abby is too! Andrew's been feeding her....and Meg picks up the other dog from the kennel this morning. The beta fish Andrew was feeding died....but he was dying and sickly before they left. Kev was kind of glad to see it go....it was a pain in the butt.

Speaking of pains in the butt. We have a problem, I think. Toby started acting real antsy last night and we think he may have to have his butt lanced. I can't remember the condition....but this will be his 3rd time in his life. Problem....we don't have the money to have it done. Last time they said a dog can die if it isn't taken care of. Now I'm stressed! Pray!

Yesterday I worked on my mother-in-law's memorial site.....hope you checked out my link. There are her 2 obituaries (from Bremerton Sun and Durant Daily which were in the papers yesterday), pictures, postings of comments we've gotten, and things like that. Rita and Lanny both like it alot. Lanny said his mom would love it. Please leave a comment in the guest book....the messages have really helped the family. Plus we would love to hear how Waverly touched your life and heart. I'm going to make one for dad. It is a nice honor to their memory. Aunt Yvonne called yesterday to check on us. She's really a nice person. I also spent 2 hours catching up with my friend, Candice, on the phone. We laughed and talked for a while. Funny how we can go all summer without connecting and it when we do connect it is like there's been no time apart! Certain people are like that in our lives.

There is also a nice article on baby Noah in the Durant paper if you want to get an update! Here is the link:
