What is this?




And the answer is......










In loving memory of Samantha

This past week was especially hard and trying. Last Tuesday we noticed a huge tumor on our 16 year old cat Samantha. The tumor had grown to the size of a softball in just a few days. Saturday the vet confirmed what we already knew in our hearts, it was terminal and she was probably in pain. We helped her into heaven the best way we could and had her put to sleep. She died in Chads arms while the kids and I waited outside. I couldnt stay in the room with her. I am so grateful that Chad was strong enough for both of us and she didnt die alone. I have such an awesome, strong Husband. The kids took it as good as we could have expected and they have been there for me. It was hard to say goodbye to such a wonderful, loving animal that I have known and loved for most of my life. Goodbye really isnt the word for it but see you later, I know she will be waiting for me at the gates when its my turn :) We love you big Momma...

Grover and Leathersich Life Group is off the Hook!

Hey guys! This is usually Teresa's cup of tea but I figured that I would give this a whirl. I must say that the Leathersich and Grover Lifegroup is truly amazing. Josh and Sara are very compassionate towards people's feelings which makes for fantastic leadership. Teresa and I are very lucky to be paired up with such great people. The couples in our group are awesome. The kind of people that you can open up to. I love um!

For all you Yankee fans I am sorry! For all you Boston fans, this may be a repeat year. Tampa Bay is going to be tuff!
