Our family had a busy but wonderful and blessed month of May which started with Katie’s graduation from UF (Doctorate of Physical Therapy). Then came preparations for the wedding – last Sunday, Katie and Cole were married – to say it was a beautiful wedding would be an understatement (I’ll share some pics tomorrow)! A few days later, we took a trip to Miami for Joshua’s graduation from Larkin University where he received a Doctorate of Pharmacy. We then traveled to Georgia to visit with family and returned home on Monday evening.

It’s rare for both Bob and I to be gone from the farm at the same time, especially out of the area, but it was made possible by a team of truly amazing people! We want to thank all of the wonderful friends/volunteers who gave more time to the rescue these past few weeks which enabled us to be away for periods of time – God bless you all! One of the most valuable things anyone can give is their time – many made sacrifices to ensure everything was taken care of and that is a huge blessing!

With me being offline so much this past month, we haven’t shared much of what has been happening here at the rescue. Donations have dropped quite a bit and that’s not good! I’ll work on an update tomorrow. I know we need to ask for help with hay and a few other things but we need to do our math first.
