An Oldie...

but not a "goodie"...Someone ( I think it was Missy, but can't remember for sure) posted recently about how we usually scrap "happy" "good" things...I remembered this LO and another that I did when we were dealing with the loss of  Buddy.  I still remember the sadness of the day and the long faces.  This LO I made after we buried our beloved Buddy B Bunny that we were trying to save.  Our then 2 yo Lab dug up a nest of bunnies...the others were all dead but we tried to save "Buddy" we weren't able to save the poor lil fella:(  We had a very sad morning and had a funeral and burial and even made a cross from popsicle sticks and put flowers over his grave.  It was a sad sad day:(

  1. What an awesome tribute and layout. You are so right, we need to scrap both good and bad. My husband has been having a bad couple of weeks, and still needs surgery, but I thought I would scrap about this. It has been such a time consumer in our lives and we need to know that and the end of it all we will survie and be stronger for it! Thanks for the reminder and just a great layout!!

  2. Thanks Laurie:) My husband has cancer...we are thru the first major battle and he is in remission, the cancer isn't goone, but isn't active at the moment:) I am now able to scrap a bit about it. I've done some journaling pages and I'm working on a few LO's of our Christmas just after his diagnosis and first couple rounds of chemo...I work on these intermittingly as I don't want to focus just on the cancer but it has changed our lives and for that we are grateful to the LORD for this trial:)

  3. What a lovely tribute. I'm sorry you couldn't save Buddy, but you've created a wonderful page for him. It's important to remember the sad times of our lives - not to dwell on them, but to keep everything in perspective.
