Meet "Rex" the Boston Terrier

We adopted Rex at 9 weeks old and we just adore him. We had him for about a week when he developed a virus, cause still unknown. He is bouncing back slowly, but let me tell you---it is rough to watch a little creature suffer and not know how to help him. Even worse when your children are looking at you with sad eyes and asking, "Mom, is he going to die?" He is being treated at the place that we adopted him from and we hope to have him home soon. My Dad in his Thoreau-esque nature, said: "I will go outside right now and throw a stick in the river for him." I love that.

A new journey

I have the pleasure and deepest respect for Heartland Cancer, (an affiliate member of Moffitt Cancer Center)namely Bj and Dr. Avashia with working for them as a Yoga teacher. Having been inspired by a few of my very close friends who have/had Cancer, I have found them to be the best teachers of all. Pictured here are two of my students that are currently undergoing Chemotherapy (note the treatment chairs behind them) for Breast Cancer. When you look at the stats of how many of us will one day develop Cancer, look now at what you can do starting TODAY----to prevent it.

One of our favorite visitors

Who else but Jacqueline can walk in 4 inch heels and sport a rockin' outfit while kneeling with Stella. Note that each is holding a baby while singing/playing guitar. Just too funny, and that is why we love her.

Easter 2009

Uncle Tony and soon to be "Aunt" Gwyn visited us during Easter. They were great Easter Bunny helpers hiding and searching for treats.

Earth Day Project

I loved volunteering in the boys classroom, Stella always right by my side. I was able to have Home Depot donate plants, pots and soil for an Earth Day project again this year. The kids enjoyed painting the pots and then planting their own flowers.

EPCOT!

What a fantastic way to kick off Spring Break for the boys, EPCOT with two of their favorite pals: Nicholas and Jack.

It was great fun to spend time with our pals from Dayton, OH (who courageously took on a five day Disney pass---and lived to tell about it---barely.)
The image of the boys in the convertible, classic!

No need to fear...

The Cornell Superheroes are here!

Yep, just a typical day at our house---fighting off bad guys, (who knew there were so many, I never see them so they must be doing their job!) jumping off tall building and cliffs, (my poor furniture) Using weapons and tools needed to capture and conquer, (various kitchen utensils, yoga straps and blocks...)

They are available on weekends at no cost, call now! Seriously.
