What Else We've Been Up to: Euthanization, Coloring Books, and More

 In between our trip to Virginia, Trek, and our trip to Alabama (which is where I'm writing this post from), we also spent a little  time at home!   Here is a glimpse of the whirlwind...

I created an alphabet coloring book.  It's cute and perfect for any vehicle loving 3-8 year olds you might know, although 18-month-old Lucie's been enjoying it too.  Check it out here and if you buy one, please leave a review.   I have visions of designing more in the future.  


Lucie and Cami came for a quick weekend visit...in the couple days after we returned from Virginia and right before Trek started. 


Glen smoked steak (for the third time in a month), so Cami could give it a try.  

 Lucie was in love with this little Grogu toy!   

Also, I'll do a more detailed post about it soon, but it's worth mentioning here that in the 24-hours between when  Trek ended and Ellie and I catching a plane to Alabama (with me still feeling quite sick), Rocky developed a concerning symptom and we felt like it was time to euthanize him.   It's something we'd been thinking about for a while, since he's been struggling to walk for the last several weeks, but the new symptom  hastened our decision and made it feel more urgent.   It was heart-wrenching and difficult to do and even more so because it needed to be done  in the midst of leaving town.    Glen stayed by his side and held him.   Ellie and I cried the whole way to the airport.    
Stay tuned for a post all about Rocky coming soon...
