FAB-U-LOUS!





Tumbleweed in her fabulous new coat - Do u like it?

She loves it and since in was raining ALL day LONG out here, she got some good use out of it. :) it is reversable the inside is dark brown fleece. The stripes are reflective - nice safety feature and very stylish.... :) My sister picked it out at PatSmart on our last trip there.



I can't wait til January when we go up to the cabins in the snow - she will be sporting it then too :) It will keep her nice and toasty as she plays.

Happy Friday!!

Happy Friday!

The Beginning and the End

This the what it looked like outside the day we arrived in New Hampshire. It was Perfect out! 75 degrees and the colors were radiant.

This is what it looked like the day we left. It was still beautiful out but quite different. It was chilly, windy, wet and foggy. In fact! It was so foggy, our plane never did take off. We had to find another hours later.

St. John the Evangelist, Schenectady, NY

...and made their first communions in...

Forgive Me

Forgive me on my declining posts. I have been having trouble getting internet access. We bought a laptop over the weekend and it has been hectic getting used to it. Also, I have had to switch accessblilty to the internet between the laptop and my PC...and for some reason right now I can read my emails but am unable to reply to them...UGH! Frusterating! so until things get a little more settled, I will be unable to post any pics. Sorry....

A Dear Friend Lost

This morning my parents' dog Little Anne died. She was like a kid to them and their best friend too. She was part of the family. It is horrible to have to loose a pet. In my opinion, it is the worse kind of hurt. It is so hard to love something so much and to have it taken away in such a short time.... Animals' lives are just too short. I am sadden Little Anne is gone. I wish it was all just a bad dream. I wish more than anything I could bring her back to them... I wish I could hold her big head again... We'll all miss her... I wish I could hug you too Mom and Greg. I am really sorry your are going through this, I know how bad it hurts. And I know how unfair it feels. Just know that Anne had a fun life and you gave her a really good one.
