Wow what a Thanksgiving! So much fun.We had 16 friends and families for lunch. 10 friends and families stopping in for a visit. And we even had 3 of man's best friends. We were puppy sitting and believe me he was the hit of the day.

We did have one small problem, the turkey did not get done in time. We carved what we could and served it. We did not want someone getting food poisoning.

It was so nice to have the little ones here. They are all so sweet. They played together so well and the dogs loved them. Now the 3 dogs also had a lot of fun playing together. It was so funny. Okay so Ditto was not to crazy about the dogs being in her yard so she found a chair and sit in it until I made her come in. Not a happy cat.

I do hope that everyone that joined us had a good time. I hope everyone else enjoyed today and gave thanks for all the family and friends you have.

They say that when you've been together as long as we have, you start to look like each other.....


Happy 33 years Bryan!

Ashton Update!

Wanted to share the news. I do not have all the details but I will give you what I have. The other day Ashton asked for his leg. His mom put it on and they started walking. When Kim called my mom she was out of breath due to the walking and excitement. Kim took a few of pictures with her camera phone.

So watch out world .....Here comes Ashton!

As many of you know Locks for Love is a very special charity that makes hairpieces and wigs for children. I have been growing my hair out now for about 7 years for this very cause. Well since the grey is coming in a little more than what I would like, I decided it was time! I can donate it with less than 5% grey, any more than that could or would be sold off to other wig makers to offset the cost of manufacturing the hairpieces and wigs for the children.

I really want to believe that a little girl or boy will be receiving my donation. So here are a few pictures for you to see.


If you can not read the numbers on the measuring stick it is 16". Not bad for an old lady. LOL

If you or someone you know would like to donate hair or money please go to the following website:http://www.locksoflove.org/help.html

I know a few of you would think our cats are spoiled. Well I believe Vader tops all of them. Remember he is Bryan's cat. He enjoys breakfast in bed.





Then after I have given him his insulin shot, he gets a drink and goes back to bed. He and Bryan will sleep as long as they can. Funny thing is Bryan never realized this was happening until I was telling him about it one day. The weekends? Well Vader wakes me up, (if Athena has not pushed the lamp over on me yet) we would hate to mess up such a nice routine.

"Dogs have masters. Cats have servants."
I wanted to let you know Ashton is doing great. I stopped by the weekend before Halloween to give him his goody bag. He was getting ready to go shopping for a Spider Man costume for Halloween.
On Oct 1st you can see he has some hair coming back in. NOW! I think it has gotten redder and thicker. He is doing fine and still a bit shy, but once he warms up to you watch out.
