Changes

Our hearts are broken, the tears just keep pouring...we want our dogs back. How do we get past this? More tears, lots of hugs and time....but, "I WANT MY DOGS BACK"!!!
We have not faced that conversation with Bryce yet. Every time she mentions them or has wanted to go in the back yard, we quickly redirect her. I guess, I am just being the protective mother again. That is my job, my gosh what a hard one it has been lately with trying to protect her for all the changes. But anything to protect her, that is what I will do.
With all of the changes, we have decided to get away for a few weeks, to process and heal. We will head to Tacoma on Tuesday for 2 weeks. Then when we come home we will start looking for a new house and find Alan a new job. He left his job this week, there is much behind his decision to leave. But the most important was his health and the time he was commuting (more than 4 hours a day (unpaid). So while we are gone, we will hopefully get some rest, my eyes will become less swollen and we will have some wonderful time with Grandpa Ken and Wamma Cathy.
Yesterday, we came across 2 little wind breakers and thought that they would be perfect for our trip, little did we know that we would need them today. What a difference a week makes! Last week we were sweltering in 103' and today we barely hit the low 60's with thunderstorms, rain and wind.
Watch your e-mail for our updated information and if you don't get it, please let me know.

I am praying for you guys, cousin. Wish I could just give you a big hug, but prayers are even better.

If you feel like a little extra trip - come East and visit us. It's only about 8-9 hours! It is nice to know that you will be within a days drive. We will be thinking of you and praying that this trip will bring the healing and direction that you need!
