Well Super Bowl Sunday was not a very good memory for us. Brom was very ill and had had two operations because he swallowed one of Joslyn's binky. We were hoping he would turn around and get better even though he was septic. Well as we were driving to Blackfoot to do the whole super bowl fun at my bro. and sis.-in-law's place, we get a call from one of the vets. she said that Brom was getting worse fast, and that now would be a time to say good bye and put him down so he wouldn't suffer any more. So we quickly turned around and stayed with Brom till his last breath.
next was Valentines Day... that was def. a pick me up holiday that Cory and I needed. We both had been feeling down because of the death of Brom. Cory and I got each other presents, but I thinkwe both were more excited watching Joslyn open her presents from us. Cory got her a purple bouncy ball, and i got her a book that reads to her as she turns the pages. My friend and I made an amazing romantic dinner for our hubbys. We made a copy cat chicken madeira from the cheese cake factory, then we did choc. fondue for dessert dipping strawberries, oreos, and marshmallows in the choc. it was all delicious!
Presidents Day so far has been busy with getting income taxes finished off, errands, shoveling more snow, visiting teachers, and getting my house ready for the week. Lets just say my house has been neglected when cory stays home with joslyn. but hey he takes really good care of Joslyn so I can't complain. So maybe I'll be able to catch some shopping before the stores close. But I had to do something fun with joslyn so we built a fort and read books together, and played with our baby dolls! ha ha.. I love this stage... now I just need to figure out how to make her talk. I hope everyone else's February is a lot slower paced and fun than mine has, but I wouldn't trade this moment for anything. I love how close our family is growing with this new stage of our lives.

I am so sorry to hear about Brom. That is so heartbreaking. I remember when you guys got him and how thrilled you were.

So sorry to hear about your dog. My parents put down our family dog while I was visiting Ryan in Rexburg after we got engaged. I cried the whole weekend. Hang on to those sweet memories!
Josie, you are ADORABLE!!!!!! I just KNOW that you and Brinley would BFFs.
I'm sorry about Brom, its really hard when a pet dies, they become part of the family.
Where are you working now? Do you enjoy it?
And we're still trying to get Travis to talk.. and he just turned 2! Don't be too much in a hurry for her to grow up, it goes by way too fast
Holy Moley she is so stinkin' cute!! I can't believe how grown up she looks!! we miss you guys!
So sorry to hear about Brom! That sounds like a tough time. Joslyn is such a cutie!
So sorry about your cute dog. That is just horrible. Sounds like you are just an awesome mom Stef Josie is so beautiful!
this is late, but I'm so sorry about Brom. I remember when you got him, too. Such a cute puppy. I met a dog recently that was the same breed and I instantly thought of you guys. I seem to get the name of his breed mixed up with another one, so to me, it's always a "Brom dog".
Have fun running through the flowers on the other side, Brom.
