National Honor Society

National Honor Society inductions take place Junior year at Bishop Dwenger.  Becoming a member begins with being invited to apply after meeting several criteria.  It requires a lot of hard work and a thoughtful application process. Today, Matt and I watched Lily Grace receive that honor at a beautiful ceremony and luncheon.  

Lily Grace, Daddy and I are so very proud of you.  You work so hard and it was so nice to see you recognized for that today. We love you so very much! You shine both inside and out!

Sweet friends

We love you Gracie!

Tickets to Taylor

Well, Ticketmaster certainly didn't make it easy, but Matt was up to the task.  We had no idea how chaotic and challenging it would be to get tickets, especially since we secured presale codes. Let me be honest, I was near tears with frustration and failed at my all day attempts. Matt however, was able to get us Taylor Swift tickets and even scored us floor seats by the stage.  We were truly feeling the pressure to pull this off.  Lily Grace, a HUGE Swiftie asked for tickets for her 17th birthday in April and according to her, any other special day she needed to call in.  It was a nerve-racking day and our family text thread confirms that, but boy did the tone change when Matt sent the news.  Matt you rock! Now comes the wait until June. 

 

Our sweet Molly

 This week has been a heartbreaking one at our house.  We had to say goodbye to our beloved Molly.  She died at home. We were with her, telling her what a good girl she was and how much she was loved as she took her last breaths.  

Losing Molly was one of the hardest things we've been through as a family.  Molly was just shy of 12 years. She and Lily have grown up together.  Lily was 5 when we welcomed Molly home.  

Molly was the absolute sweetest and most loyal girl.  She remained a puppy at heart, right up to her last day.  We will miss her greatly.

Molly, thank you for loving us unconditionally, making us laugh, causing chaos that made our house a home and for your loyal, big heart.  You meant so much to us and we loved you so very much!
