Sometimes, there are no words.

 On Sunday afternoon I was ready to publish a new post 
about our weekend when we received the most awful phone call.
 Ryan's parents were in a plane crash in their small airplane.
 His dad did not make it, 
and his mom was taken to the hospital in critical condition 
(thankfully, she is recovering). 
We left Sunday night to go back to Missouri 
and I'm just trying to be the best support system I can be. 
If you've got any to spare, thoughts and prayers are very much appreciated.

  5. It's always so tragic when one of our loved ones passes away. I'm so srry to hear about your lost. When I lost my Grandfather, whom I was very closed to, the only thing that gave encouragement was the fact that I knew someday I would see him in heaven. Someone, once told me that when God decides to take someone he loves, it's as if He were looking at His garden and decided that this person was so lovely he just had to bring him inside. My prayers are with you and your family.
