Kids @ Thanksgiving 2007

I know...Thanksgiving was a couple of months away. But since I didn't have this blog then, I will post some pics now!

These boys are so goofy! They act nothing like their mothers!

And these two must be hungry! See how patient they are!

Another set of goofy kids...

And the adults!

Brianna~Mommy and Me (1997)

I came across these pictures of Brianna and thought I would share!

Brianna takes her prayers seriously!

And I like the way she is sitting here with her friends.

This one's for you Mom!

Here is a pic of your oldest Grandson and Granddaughter!

Justin was one and Tara was about 7 mos.

Sheki

We took Toby and Sheki to the vet today. Toby just needed a rabies shot. Sheki went because she is having a hard time getting up off the floor and having troubles seeing and hearing.
The vet told us to stop her diet and give her what ever she wants. Whatever makes her happy is more important now. Sheki will be 15 next month so she is getting pretty old. The vet doesn't think she will pass anytime soon but gave us a pamphlet about the loss of a pet and this plea...

A Dog's Plea

Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me.

Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I might lick your hand between blows, your patience and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me learn.

Speak to me often, for your voice is the world's sweetest music, as you know by the fierce wagging of my tail when your footsteps fall upon my waiting ears.

Please take me inside when it is cold and wet, for I am a domesticated animal, no longer accustomed to bitter elements. I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth.

Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst.Feed me clean food that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to walk by your side, and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life, should your life be in danger.

And, my friend, when I am very old, and no longer enjoy good health, hearing and sight, do not make heroic efforts to keep me going. I am not having any fun. Please see that my trusting life is taken gently. I shall leave this earth knowing with my last breath I draw that my fate was always safest in your hands.

Hello!

I have decided to set up this blog so that I can share pictures and news with family and friends.

So, to test how this is going to work...I will start with a picture of my puppy...Toby. You may think he looks so innocent but he really wants to chew on my shoes!
