I’m holding back tears (and not doing that very well) as I write this to say farewell to our two beloved dogs Boomer and Casey. Last weekend was one of the most horrible weekends of our lives. Through a terrible accident we lost not one, but both of our two best friends.
We had Boomer for three years and Casey for nine years. These weren’t outside dogs, they were like our kids. Our house is strangely quiet now and everywhere we look and everything we do reminds us that they aren’t there anymore. No more playfully growling at the laundry basket when we washed clothes. No more tug of war or sitting in our lap, whether we wanted it at the time or not.
If you are one of our regular blog readers, you may have noticed that Casey or Boomer sometimes showed up in our videos and pictures. It’s difficult to see the pictures now but we will leave them out there in memory of them.
Some people may think this is silly and that they were just animals but they weren’t. As I said they were our best friends. I’ll always miss Casey’s hugs and Boomer jumping all the way up in my arms to catch him. The Bible doesn’t mention if dogs go to heaven but I like to think they are still together running and playing together.
We will always dearly miss them but we have to move on. Friday we went to the animal shelter and picked up our new best friend! I'll tell you that story soon!
