A New Discovery Is Always Cool ..Unless that discovery is.. Termites feasting on your house, coming down with the flu, poop on the bottom of your shoe, or the car won't start and your late for work.. Hmmmm.. I suppose not ALL new discoveries are cool, so let's start again.
Huxley At 15 Weeks ..Growing, Exploring, and Keeping Us on Our Toes Time is flying, and our little Huxley hit the 15-week mark yesterday, weighing in at a healthy 3.5 lbs! Each day brings new milestones in his world and for us, and every adventure with him is a mix of joy, challenges, and dare I say, plenty of laughs.
The Northern Lights in Southern New Jersey ..Tonight, something magical happened .. A moment I’ve long dreamed about experiencing but never expected to witness here, in Southern New Jersey. The Northern Lights! Yes, you read that right. It’s one thing to see pictures, but to stand there, in my own backyard, and experience the aurora in real time was nothing short of breathtaking. The iPhone definitely caught the scene better than the eye. I wish the city lights near by weren't as bright as they are. We always thought we would have to travel farther North to see them, but luckily they are visible here tonight.
It's Been A While Since I Have Shared My Art With Silver ..So let’s break that trend today! Autumn is quickly approaching, and here in New Jersey, the trees are just starting to turn. The air is cooler, crisper, and has that unmistakable feeling of fall. I love this time of year.. The colors, the cool breeze, the soft light. I do miss summer’s warmth, but there’s something magical about the way fall transforms the landscape.
And Just Like That ..A new journey begins.. A year without hearing the pitter patter of paws, the barks at the front door, looking over and seeing a precious little fur baby lying on the couch or laying next to us in bed, no one for us to come home to and speak with endlessly about the trials and tribulations of our days without judgment, no unlimited unconditional love being given to us every single day.. and the list goes on and on. We were ready to start a new chapter. My wife more than myself was ready to add to our family once more. But in my own way I was also wanting to start a new journey.
October 3rd, 2024 ..Today marks one year since our precious Molly left us. It’s hard to believe that a whole year has passed without her bright, loving presence in our home. She filled our lives with so much joy, comfort, and unconditional love for so many years, and now, every day feels a little quieter, a little less full without her.
