Happy Halloween!!

Ellie the Bumblebee

Not much going on at our house for Halloween, but I just got these pictures of my grandpuppy, Ellie. She was a big hit when Kristeen walked her around the neighborhood. Ellie is as sweet as honey!!

life lessons we can learn from our dogs

my hubby found this. it's a good read and is currently posted on our frig, but i had forgotten it was there.


Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride. Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy. Take naps. Stretch before risings. Run, romp, and play daily. Thrive on attention and let people touch you. Avoid biting when a simple growl will do. On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass. On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree. When you're happy, dance around and way your entire body. When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body. Delight in the simple joy of a long walk. Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you're not. If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it. When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently. ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY!!!

i do know former President Ronald Reagan said, " Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God."

i love my doggies. when i feel bad, they come and sit by me. they are always happy to see me. they love me unconditionally. i should be more like my dogs.

A friend of mine, Judy McWhorter, from my church youth group when I was growing up recently published a book called Devotions for Dog LoversShe is definitely a dog lover just as I am. I think it's a book worth recommending.

Ellie the grandpuppy

this is ellie's 1st picture that j sent me when he and k found her at a local animal shelter during their spring break 2007. he sent me this picture to see what i thought...... and if you know me you know exactly what i was thinking......... adorable and so sweet. when they brought her home, she got them a little worried though. first thing she did was fall in the pool and k had to fish her out and then she jumped in my tiny fish pond. thank goodness she didn't do that anymore!!!
Jordan visited us on July 4th weekend. I hadn't seen him since March and his dad hadn't seen him since Feb. Sooooo it was time for a visit. Unfortunately, K couldn't come because she was scheduled to work so that was no fun for her and we missed having her here. We had been keeping Ellie when J & K went on their vacation so he was here to pick her up. She didn't much care for the water, but i think she looks pretty cute.
