Game Night with the gang and the dog on the table



The Family minus Jordan

Fireball is for bear hugs

The Crew plus fireball
This is exactly what this looks like.  Someone got up from their chair and Sam the dog ran and jumped on the table and we all freaked out.


Good Friends


More good friends

Sam the Dog wants me to do something and starts a good conversation

Lost Cat - A coyote was in the yard last night.....


A coyote was in the yard last night and the best damn cat I've ever known (understand' I'm not normally a cat person) was grabbed and taken away.  Our Mimi cat of (12 years) has been abducted.   We heard sounds of things outside our window getting pushed around. I grabbed the huge flashlight and spotted the very large coyote trying to get over the fence. Kris said that she saw Mimi the cat in the jaws of this beast. I only saw a big bushy tail trying to get over the fence.  Goodbye Mimi, you will be missed.
