Good bye Cheri

I still cannot believe my big sissy is gone.

Winter update!!

We have bunnies!!!
Well we have had them for some time now, but they seem to be multiplying!!!
We currently have nine rabbits. Four of which are gorgeous Angoras!! They are all registered and so pretty!! I will be putting pictures here tomorrow!!

Also...we have decided to try our hand in meat rabbits..What a cool thing!! I love my rabbits!! I currently have four American Chinchillas, and one Flemish Giant X... I have yet to have babies yet...can't wait to see babies!!
My camera has been not feeling well lately, but it is better now, so I will for sure be getting pics soon!!

Family

What a great blessing family is..I am not talking blood reletives here, not talking about Mom's and sisters, and such. What I am talking is the family that is described in the Bible book of Mark 10:29-30 Jesus said: “Truly I say to YOU men, No one has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the good news who will not get a hundredfold now in this period of time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, with persecutions, and in the coming system of things everlasting life.

Henrietta

It turns out that Henrietta is not...
She is a he...Cackeldoodleeeeeerrkkkk
not the sound of a happy hen!! =(

Henrietta

My dearly beloved, rescued...a chicken..
Funny thing as I am the one always bringing home strays of one sort or another..and now he seems to be joining in the fun..Tony's chicken is a nice girl, she is very friendly, must have been someone's pet. She is going to be getting a new friend within the next week or so. So funny that Tony has a pet chicken!!

The cat's out of the bag!!!

I just love this picture Hannah took of our kitty Sampson!!
He is a goofy boy!!

Yoshie

This is Yoshie camping this summer...She was very
naughty and wanted to wander, although all the other
Chihuahuas were off leash and stuck close to camp!!
It was a blast taking five chihuahuas camping!!!

Danny Boy

I just got home a bit ago...first thing I saw was Danny!! He came to the front door to greet me!! He looks almost all better, but can a dog actually have dark circles under his eyes?? He looks like he does!! He ate a bit of food tonight...WHEW!!!! Looks like he is back in business!!

Our Boy

Not sure if he's going to pull through...
He spent the last two days with me at the clinic,
bloodwork, xrays, fluids, more bloodwork, more xrays
more fluids. Four days now and he still won't eat.
I brought him home with fluids and meds for the
weekend. He has been with our family for so
long, since the beginning of time it seems.
I could go on and on about him, stories of
getting himself into trouble, or his favorite
hideout (under the covers of my bed with a stinky
old bone) or how he would take himself for a walk of to Nana's house when she lived here. It was about a mile or so away, on the other side of our tiny town
and he would go see Nana for a treat. He still went there after the flood, she had been gone for weeks and he was looking for her.. Or how the neighbor rescued him one day out of the back of some guy's truck, he was headed out of town with Danny in the back. Somehow he slipped his collar and had no tags on, after that his dog id read 'My name is Danny~Boy please take me to my home and the address =).What a great dog, I believe that all the time we spent loving him, all the time Jaime and I spent training him really paid off. He has become such a huge part of our lives.
Now he lays on the couch, doing nothing...I really hopes he pulls through..I love him so much, as does so many people...the world would be a sad place with out him...

Hannah with Allice

These rabbits are so sweet and soft!!
We really adore every minute with
them!! Allice is our French Angora girl,
she is lilac in color and so very gentle!!
We love our bunnies!!

I really do love tomatoes!!

Not only are they delicious, they are pretty!!

A break in the rain

Even 'Fallow' enjoyed a bit of sunshine today!! What a nice ol' girl!!

A break in the rain

We did very well this well with our tomatoes. The sweet 100 cherries are awesome!! The yield is beyond what we could have ever expected!! They are so nice and very addictive!! It is my favorite thing to go first thing in the morning and pick till my heart's content!! Yummy breakfast food!! I learned also at work that if you get tired, just pop a cherry tomatoe in your mouth!! It wakes you right up!! And much better for you than coffee, except for a few sores in my mouth from being a glutton =) but they go away!!

My cool dog

Danny~Boy
Everyone loves him..he's such a trouble maker..or was in his younger years! We nearly lost him this week, and realized how very special he is to so many people!!

Daughters

My beautiful beautiful daughters..frozen in a photo...

They both stole my heart with gentle cooing
Skin that couldn't be softer
Eyes that couldn't be deeper
Beauty that pierced my soul
Such love and tenderness we share
A connection of trees and roots
