Elijah wearing his papaw's jacket that was made for him right after Vietnam. It was made for the return of our guys from the war. 1969-1970 He has enjoyed the history of this jacket. Everytime he wears it around he gets to share history with his friends and others.

Cherokee Cheyenne

This has been a really hard week for our whole family. We lost our 13 year old boxer Cheyenne . Cheyenne has been fighting cancer and we spent Tuesday night with him being very weak and sick . He passed away Wednesday around 2. Our hearts are broken. My kids have never really known life without him. Certain things like him meeting them at the gate in the backyard. He loved camping out with the kids, going for walks in the woods with them. He was the most loyal loving dog. We will miss him dearly.

Thought I would share a pic of this heirloom passed down through the family. Lead crystal decanter. This was sent to a family member while my dad was in the war. He has so many different things from Spain and Germany. This is one of my favorites. I have it displayed in my kitchen now.
