Scott's grandfather, "Grandpa Secrist", passed away at the beginning of the month. We were so glad that we had made the decision for Scott to make a trip to the West coast this summer to see him. It was a wonderful time for both of them.
A few days later, we got the very unexpected call that my uncle had died. Just one week before we had been together for Grandmom's 90th party. Uncle Dennis was loved by many. We will be praying for Aunt Jane, Craig & Kim, and Brian & Jami.
Uncle Dennis & his grandson, Eric
We were hoping for brighter days, but just a week later found ourselves dealing with health issues with our dog, Payton. For 11 years he was such a part of our family and never had any health issues. In three short days, we went from thinking he just had a stomach bug to finding out he had advanced cancer. On September 17th, my birthday, we all sadly said good-bye to Payton. We have all found it strange in our new life without "dog habits and routines".
Ella and Owen saying good-bye to Payton. Makenna so wisely commented that she was glad Owen was too little to understand because then he wouldn't be sad.
