Before we left for vacation in Virginia, Jes and I had decided that we would start a post weekend run tradition of bringing Marble to Caribou with us and writing our blog post. Obviously that plan has changed, but this morning we were finally able to go for another run, and I am writing this […]

First off I have to say thank you to everyone who emailed, called, texted, posted, and sent flowers.  We are so blessed to have all of your kind words and thoughts.  I has been a difficult week for our little family, but you all have made it a little easier.  I know we have been […]
