My Girls

I found this ten year old photo as we were picking pictures for the memorial service for my father-in-law.



Annie is on the left in her onesie that we called "the nutfit" because it had little acorns and nuts on it. That led to her long-standing nickname, Annie Grace Nuttyface.

Haley is on the right wearing a onesie from Big Dogs that was a gift from my godparents.

I love the serious looks on their faces.

Happy Thanksgiving

Tim's father died last week, and we are staying with his mom this week.

It has, of course, been an especially emotional and spiritual holiday week.

I hope everyone has a blessed day.

Heh.

Kirby

After fostering him for six months, we have decided not to adopt Kirby permanently. There are many reasons, the main one being something too vile to discuss here in my happy place!



But we love him and miss him already. I cry every night thinking about him, and I hope he is happy.

Gunny is Gone

*Sniff* I am puppy-less. I spent an hour last night sobbing while the last puppy chewed on my slipper. I named Gunny on the night he was born and had formed a special attachment to him.

On the flip side, I am also puppy-free, and can now begin the task of eradicating the last of the puppy urine from my floor.

Of course, Kirby is not potty-trained yet, but I am going to pretend he is and pretend that I won't be stepping in surprise puddles tonight.

Surrogate Mommy

She's down to the last two pups, and she's not letting them out of her sight.
