We are still here, "life" happened to us!

Wow, it has been forever since I've posted, alot has happened to our family including the furry ones. It has been a mild winter here with only a few super cold days but not too bad for typical VA weather. Lots of good and very sad news to report; first the good news, Dennis and I are expecting twins in June/July (never know w/multiples) but I'm thinking mid-June. We have had lots of good Dr. visits and in 2 weeks we will find out the genders of our twinkies. I feel great but have yet to do ANYTHING w/the nursery til we find out the color selections, LOL.

Now the sad news, our dog Buddy passed away, as many of you already know (his pix is on the site here-2 of them) he came to us w/may challenges 9y ago and we overcame them all together. Unfortunately one we didn't know of was a deadly tumor which took him very quickly from us. Every day is very hard and the house will never be the same w/o him, it's been a month and I still can't believe it's real. This seems worse than losing my dad 9y ago.

Other sad news, geesh, I know, will it ever end, is that my pregnant mare Breeze has developed a neuro disorder(not genetic) that is manageable to a point but not cureable, it's called EPM (equine protozoal myeloencephalitis) she drags her back toe and front toe but is fine otherwise. She's on pricey meds for a 28d treatment and vet will re-evaluate her in 2weeks. Still reading up on this disease (fairly new) and we hope to see her stop dragging that hind foot soon. Good news is that her appetite and attitude are both fine. Arionna looks fab!! She has a great weight and her winter coat is just beautiful!

So as you've been reading this I've been a bit busy w/the preg. then a bad virus, then my poor best friend passes then horse is diagnosed w/EPM..hmmm..I'm ready for some good news!! Looks like it will be here in 2 weeks!!!
