Ooooh I have sure loved having these guys around…
close enough that they can come by each day and play…
or rest…or just hang out with me and the kitties.
The time went by too quickly and then…
before we knew it…
it was time for them to leave.
Oooooh I’ll miss you Merrick…
and Linky…
and Skylie…
and Kortney…
and my sweet Dane.
Safe travels my loves.
I miss you already.
While these cuties are in town, Kortney and the kids are staying with April’s family…
while Dane is taking care of the pups at my house. They all go back and forth between houses.
It’s been a really fun arrangement–
for me anyway. Haha.
Our sweet Kortney’s first book came out yesterday!! It’s incredible and you should grab it right here!
Checkout the teaser reel.
We’re all so proud of you Kortney!!
Congratulations!
Ok, this is my LEAST favorite thing about roadtrips….
having to say good-bye to a big chunk of my heart.
Ooooh, I’m going to miss this sweet guy…
and his family….SO, so much.
The cousins will miss each other too. It was just all so dang FUN!!
It’s so strange to drive away from these guys who just lived down the road a few months ago. Kind of awful, actually. Feels like we should all be going “home” together.
Deep breaths. Deep breaths.
Good-bye sweet family—I love you!!
After the hike, some of the kids were still wanting more of the rugged outdoor, fend-for-yourself type fun. So Uncle Dane and Aunt Kortney decided to take them FISHING.
I’ve only been fishing once and it was a baaaaaad experience and I was young enough that I should have forgotten it, but of course, I didn’t. I’ll have to tell you about that sometime…later.
ANYway, we went to the local fishing hole and it was wonderful. The bigger kids and Kortney even caught some fish. Not being an enourmous fish or fishing fan, but also not wanting to be left out entirely…
I came along…
and stayed in the car. At least this time, I could see all the action.
As you can see from all the smiles–this was certainly another unforgettable day!
