My family dog, Hollie, had an apparent stroke (or possibly an episode of a vestibular disease) that was really scary. She couldn't walk, had nystagmus (constant eye movement), and a head tilt. She always appeared not to recognize us for a brief period and wouldn't eat. She stayed at vet for a few days before we decided to bring her home. She's always be a very shy dog and we knew she was very scared there. Thankfully, she is now doing GREAT!
Her nystagmus has stopped and her head tilt is also gone. She is eating and getting better on her feet everyday! I'm SO SO relieved that my Hollie girl is doing better!
In the hospital with her IV
Coming home
Her pack welcoming her home. You can see her head tilt a bit in this pic.
Happy to be home in her own bed.
We love you Hollie bell!
Next we had a 4 day/Valentine's weekend and Cor and I took off to Prescott, AZ!
Our old street
The best place we've ever lived.
After settling in Friday and walking around town a bit we had lunch at Cor's favorite local place Bill's Grill. Then we took a short nap and walked around the lake at Granite Mountain.
For dinner we went to my favorite local place, La Bruzza's for our Valentine's date night.
Saturday we went to Flagstaff, AZ to meet up with the Wiercks and Cor's parents who were in town!
We got to see their Alma Mater and explore the campus (where Zach is currently attending!)
After our tour we went to Brad's sister's cabin (where the Wiercks and Cor's parents were staying the night) and had a fun night of food and catch phrase of course!! We stayed up wayyy late and then decided at the last minute to head back to our hotel (we made a 2 hour drive at 1 am... Yikes) but we didn't want to waste our hotel and figured we'd be able to sleep in!
Sunday we met up with Pat and Cindy who were spending a night in Prescott for Cindy's birthday. After lunch and a much needed nap we headed to play some pool before dinner. We also ran into this lady in one of the shops with wolf dogs!
Beautiful!
Our own sheriff
The birthday girl
Monday we spent some alone time together and took a scenic drive before heading home
Until next time Prescott... We love you!!!
My softball team that I coach is in full gear.. We're having a bit of a rough start but once we smooth everything out I think we'll have a great team!
Last weekend Cor and I went to watch Vanessa's team play in their first round CIF game (they won)! Woo hoo! Isn't she the cutest coach?!
The boys got new Easter "peeps"
I also won a Fitbit at work and have been a walking fool trying to beat all my coworkers at steps!! It's so fun and it keeps me MOVING!!
So the pups have been getting lots of steps too!!
My best day so far is 22,000 steps! Which equals a little over 9 miles!!
I love it!!
So that's February in a nut shell! On to March we go!
March = spring break = Hawaii!!! So I'm super pumped for this month!!
XO!
