saying a final goodbye to our sweet pup: a personal post

If you've noticed it's been a bit quiet around here this week, it's true.  We sadly had to put our sweet dog, Linus, down last week.  He had been pretty sick for a while, but it is still so heart breaking.  Michael got Linus as a small little pup.  I typically try to keep things lighthearted and fun around here, so forgive me, but I just wanted to share. 

After making the appointment with the vet, we decided to make sure we had one last great night with him- something we could always talk about with Emmie, so we headed to one of our favorite local parks, Peaksview Park, in Lynchburg, Virginia.  Our sweet friend, Miranda, came with us and we enjoyed a nice walk, and even got Linus in the water- one of his very favorite things to do.

Linus was the biggest pain in the butt, but also the sweetest dog ever.  We truly loved him and have some of the best memories with him over the last 8 years!

I truly had no idea how difficult this would be- we are seriously missing a piece of our family.  So thankful for the time we had with him- even when he was chewing up my furniture and digging through our basement door (a story for another day! ha). 

Okay, sorry to be Debbie-Downer---- More uplifting & fun shoots from the past week coming soon!
