WE'RE STILL DANCING, BUT TAKING A LITTLE TIME OFF.
Our Dear Blogging Friends, The past two months have been quite hectic for me and our family and it has become harder for me to keep up with my blogging as much as I would like to and not to mention, posting.
A month ago, my daughter Ashley, was diagnosed with Colitis and also with a large tumor on one her ovaries. The next week, I fell and broke my nose. This past Wednesday, Ashley had surgery to remove the tumor which was binign and came home today. We feel very blessed!
Ashley has two babies that are only eleven months apart. Yep, you heard right! The youngest is four months old and she is here with us this week and her fifteen month old brother has been staying with his other grandparents.
On Monday, I am going up to help take care of Ashley and her family for several days every week. She can't lift the babies for six weeks so I will be sort of out of pocket until then.
However, I will bring my lap top and try to keep up with everyone's posts when I have some down time in the evenings. That is, if I can still stay awake after I put the babies to bed. I'm not sure when I we will be posting next, but I will have to play that by ear also.
Riley and Star are still dancing their little feet off and will continue Dancing With The Star but the show's schedule is uncertain for right now and most likely, I will post from time to time on the weekends when I'm home.
We love hearing from all of you and we promise to stay in touch whenever we can until things get back to normal again.
Love to all of you,
Stephanie.

Stephanie, please try to take care of yourself first, because if you are not feeling good then you cannot be of help.
As far a Riley and Star go I,m pretty sure that they could use a bit of a rest, my gosh they have been dancing non stop for weeks now!!!

You have a lot to deal with right now. Mom fully understands the fatigue that can set in from little ones with all the grandkids here. We are so sad your daughter has to go through this but so thankful for a benign report. Hope the nose is healing nicely. Don't worry about the blog - we will all still be here cheering and voting for Riley and Star and for your family too.
Hugs, the OP Pack
Just stopped by to say that I am thinking of you.
You just take care of your family. We can still smile when we think of Riley and Star's little dancing paws.
When you get better and when your family gets better we'll be right here. Meanwhile, you've still got our votes!
We are so happy that Ashleys tumor was benign...wishes for a fast recovery. Hope your nose heals properly. We know how life can jump around sometimes, and will be checking in to see any updates. Until then,

Hey guys,
Wow, what a pawful lot is going on in your household. First, what a relief that your human sister is alright. Second, hope your human's nose is feeling better. I will be crossing my paws really tight for both of them, that they heal well. I bet your human will have a great time with the little 2-legger! Don't feel bad if she has less time for you, I'm sure she'll make it up to ya!
Your pal,
Sedona
