Our best friend Poncho

Our sweet pug Poncho passed away 8/5/09, he was 17y old; it was a very sad event and we are devastated; the children have kept us from going into la la land and our other 6 animals feel his absence. He was dad's little dog and when he passed away Poncho mourned w/us as well. Now we mourn little Poncho and wish him wonderful playtime and peace in heaven. I have a lump in my throat as I type this and it has been almost 2 weeks. He had many challenges with his sight, hearing and arthritis but seemed to never miss when dinner was being served. Bless his little heart and we look forward to meeting him once again when he is all healthy and wild again ;p)

Rolling Along

Kids are growing fast, Nia is walking, Sam is rolling around and our furry ones are healthy and happy. The twins love their books so much that Nia races back to the nursery to sit as she goes thru them one by one then pushes them out of the way to get to the next one. Sam loves his books too and he does something funny w/his toys, he plays with them and then tosses them behind him, very funny to watch but mom has to clean up this mess of books and toys (for now). Nia has 2 more teeth, Sam has them on the way, lots of drooling activity. Pangea goes to her next show on Sunday and looks so much more filled out, she's growing up so fast & next Fall we start working on riding her. I am so excited about her progress! Oh and I joined Bozart gallery in dntn Cville and have some paintings on display for 1st Friday and thru the month of August. If any of you are nearby please drop in and say hi Friday. I posted one pix here, natch it's guitars, lol!
