30 Days of Thanks ~ Day 25

Our dogs have always been a part of our family.  Our dogs are not pets... they are family!  There are some days when I can't tell if my dogs or my kids are more spoiled!  Losing them is one of the worst feelings out there, it hurts!

Today, my parents lost their family member... Duke.  He turned 13 in October, and my almost 14 year old son picked him out when he was 7 months old.  Duke has been a loyal friend and guardian to our children since they were born.

Today I am thankful for our pets and the memories we have with them! 


R.I.P Duke!  We are going to miss you!
