The No Good Very Bad Day

If only the day could have been bad because I have lost my cell phone (again), or because the screen on my company laptop cracked, or because I didn't have a Diet Coke. Today is a no good very bad day for all of us. Kenzi had to get her Kindergarten shots, which let's face it those hurt! But then we had to put our little Bailey to sleep. Bailey is our 4 year old Golden Retriever. These are the times when I wish we were millionaires, but Bailey our Golden Retriever developed a neurological disorder in which she was unable to urinate. Her bladder was the size of a basketball, and she is a very thin Golden Retriever. She also developed kidney failure because of this. I am very grateful that John did this, I just couldn't take her because I knew she wouldn't be coming home with me. She gave us a lot of bad days, she chewed my furniture, she dug many holes in the yard that I twist my ankle in, and she has run out of the backyard many times. She popped my back out and I had to go a chiropractor to snap it back in, she was our "Marly" dog; but she was still a part of our family and loved very much! Kenzi and Korbin are not taking this very well. We are going to each write Bailey a letter or draw her a picture, that was Korbin's idea that he got from "Marley and Me". Although Bailey did make us crazy at times, we did have a lot of good times with her. Korbin discovered she could pull them in the wagon, she took care of Sumo's kittens, she always cleaned up the floor after dinner, and she always had the look in her eye that just said I love you! We will miss you Bailey!

Where did the time go?

There has been so much going on, but you really wouldn't know it from our blog; so here is the catch up.

Korbin has finally learned how to ride the big kid 4 wheeler.  Not the one for adults but the mini ones they make for kids.  He loves to go to grammies house and practice in all of the dirt, and is really looking forward to going camping.  He also just turned 7 on the 17th.  We had a little family get together and I have not seen Korbin in the house since!  We gave him a scooter, my mom & dad gave him a skateboard with a ramp, Wendi gave him roller blades, and Todd & Cara gave him a really cool rocket launcher that launches the rocket at least 100 feet in the air I swear!  We have been having a ton of fun with it, and Korbin is getting better with his roller blades and skateboard.  I am just grateful that the weather has been so beautiful.

I will get some pictures up soon of the weekend event!

We did celebrate Easter and I will be posting pictures of dying eggs, and the Easter Egg hunt.

Ohhhh, and one more big thing that has happened, I won an HCG diet, and I have been on it for 3 day now.  I had to start another blog that is dedicated only to that diet so if you want to check it out with all the details, go here Jodi's HCG Journey.
