Let's Get Some Updates

Sorry for such delays in the blogging area. Many things have occurred since I last blogged.

Zoey has grown up to be a wonderful sassy cat. She will be a year old soon. Bogo gets to visit often. He even walked down the street to visit on his own unknowing
to his parents.

We had a great Christmas with family. Cassie and Eric gave JR and I a cruise for our Christmas and birthdays this year. We are and did turn 50 this year.

I had a wonderful 50th birthday. My dad, Jim came and surprised me for my birthday. My in laws also came to celebrate. My father in law Big John also celebrated his 70th birthday.

Now let me share some pictures with you.

Many Blessings

We had a wonderful non traditional Thanksgiving. All of our Thanksgivings are great, special and different.
This year my Dad,Jim, spent Thanksgiving with us. First Dad and I had lunch with Cassie and Eric's family in Blountsville. It was great.Eric's mom, dad, brother Brent and wife Mandy, his two aunts and families and last but not least his grandparents.
Then we headed to the airport to have dinner with JR. He had to work so the families were invited to join them for dinner. We all fixed things and had a great time visiting and eating. We had the biggest crowd. JR, me, my dad, Cassie,Eric and John were present. We had a tour of the tour and radar. Wish I had my camera for a pic of Cassie in the elevator. It was a 11 floors and then we had to climb three flights of stairs. Cassie hates elevators and plus her Dad has been stuck in this elevator a few times.
Lastly, we had dessert at Cassies. Cassie made a wonderful pumpkin cake. Our friends Ken, Mark and Morgan came also. What a wonderful fulfilling night.
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because of the time I am able to spend with my family and friends.

What's New

Its been a long time. Let me catch you up a bit.
We have a new kitten named Zoey. She is a sweet, active kitty. Cassie went to Eric's family's farm. She intended to get me a kitty but came home with BOGO also. The two kittens are loveable and playful.
I know you already heard this news from Cassie. We also lost our spunky, wonderful Scarlett. She was 11 and had been ill for a little while. She did get to meet Zoey. She did not mind her but did not play with her. Zoey tried though. This has been a bitter, sweet time for us.

Puppy Day Care - Update

 

Puppy day care is almost over for the summer. I will be out of town next week and then start back to work August 8.

Luke loves to sleep on the top of the couch. He can see down the street and can check everything out. Daisy just loves to sleep on the couch on the pillows. She is like a princess atop the pillows. Spoiled!!!

 

 

Luke and Daisy greet us at the door with toys in their mouth. Usually their are toys in the yard and many around the house. They know how to get them out but do not put them away yet. I guess I need to work on that.

Friends from Mobile

 

Cassie and Anita

When we first moved to Alabama we lived in an apartment in Hoover. Anita and her family livened up our stay their. Anita has not changed. She is full of live and a mess.

Cassie, Anita and her husband Chris. 

Ashliegh, Ali, and Andrea

They loved playing the Wi. When they lived in Hoover they were 3, 5 and 7. They are 11, 13 and 16 now.

John came and brought vegetables and his famous deviled eggs. Cassie and Eric came and Cassie made Macaroni and Cheese. JR cooked chicken and steak on the grill. Yummy. I made potato salad.

We had a fun visit with old friends.

One Summer Project Completed

 

I have two projects I wanted to complete this summer. One was to clean out my bedroom closet. After a week it is finally finished. I have five bags of clothes to go to good will, one to Cassie, and one for the trash. I did not take a picture of the before look. I would be embarrassed. 

 

The mountain of shoes is now gone and they are now hanging where they are suppose to be.

 

 

We moved J.R.'s dresser into the closet. I cleaned out all the clothes in his dresser. We got new furniture at Christmas. We moved the furniture upstairs but still needed his dresser.

This is our bedroom presently.
