Goodbye to our Sweet Bailey.

Yesterday we had to say goodbye to our sweet Bailey. She was 11 years old and losing the battle with cancer. It is such a horrible decision to have to make, but we knew it was time when she could no longer walk around or eat. It is really sentimental to us, because she has always been a part of our story. Since the very beginning really. She leaves behind a golden retriever that thinks she hung the moon and two little kids who were pretty attached too. Does anyone have any good tips on making this transition easier on the kids or the other dog. I don't think we are doing it well. Mia is just confused.

Here are some pictures of the sweet memories...

Newly married with our two babies.

Puppy Bailey. She was a pound puppy. Rotten and sweet all wrapped in one cute package!

Thrilled by our engagement, can't you tell!?!

These two were pretty good buds all through college. 

My baby! We are "joint custody" so she lived part time at my house and part time at Richards.  She was too spoiled and had lots and aunts and uncles because of that!

Moving into our first house.

She loved the kids. She didn't always show affection, but you could tell by her protective side that their safety was her number one priority. Even an innocent wrestling match between us and the kids would make her crazy.

Goodbye sweet Bailey! You are terribly missed!
