Abby + Lizzie = Fun


Yes indeed, nothing in life is as great as a week with your grandchildren. We had such fun! Got into all kinds of mischief, made lots of messes, watched lots of movies, make cookies, went swimming, played at the children's museum, played in the snow, had tea parties, stayed up late, got Nannie to read lots of books, got new toys, and laughed until our belly's ached.

The pictures can tell the story..............

This is a snippet of our wonderful week. I really thought I took more pictures but these are the best. 

Seen then I have been sick and this is what I have been doing




Lots of tea and Kleenex


I think I am better but my cough is just terrible and I can't sleep at night due to the coughing. Nothing seems to help once the tickle starts. 

But I am walking better and not in pain, so I think I  will make it! 


Well, I promised a picture of my new bangs. Thanks for visiting and thank you to all my friends and all my new followers. I NOW HAVE 100 FOLLOWERS!!!!!
IT'S TIME TO CELEBRATE!

Busy busy=Happy happy❤

Hi Friends,


This will be a post of updates just in the past week. It's been busy and mostly in a good way. Although, Jack got a nasty skin infection. His cousin Leroy, the silver lab, was up for a visit with his mommy, my daughter, and they had lots and lots of fun. They ran and romped about and went swimming in a new pond we found. The swimming was so fun for them we took them the next day too, this was during our Indian summer weather we were having. Well, our visitors left, I went to work and Jack went to doggy daycare. When I was dropping him off I noticed he had a dirty face, but honestly I was running late and decided he would have to go to DDC with a dirty face! BAD MOMMY! Well, when I picked him up I noticed his face was messy and dirty. Sorry this is turning into a l--o--n--g story. Got home scrubbed him up and noticed oozing and an odor. Well, time to call the vet and make an appointment for the next day. Jack was getting lethargic and would just lie in his bed, I could not wait for the appointment time. Bottom line Jack had a raging skin infection from the pond. Apparently there was a bacteria that found a nick or scratch on Jack that settled in and the infection started. Leroy was not affected at all, thankfully, because it was nasty and he is a puppy.  So the Vet shaved the side of his face gave me lotion to cleanse his face 2 times a day, a cream to put on after and antibiotics for 15 days! The antibiotic alone was $125.00, very powerful medicine.


Let me show you what I am talking about. Starting with the fun and then the  *not so pretty* part.





Amy, Jack and Leroy



Happy Doggies




Tug-of-war anyone



Oh, feels so good on a HOT day



So cute aren't they?






Before we went to Vets


Thought it might have been a Hot Spot, something pets get in the heat and when they stay damp.



But no, after getting all shaved a raging, inflamed infection. My poor Jack





Jack is feeling so much better and is on the mend.


I will update you later but he is soooooo much better, and the mediation is working!





I have wanted to show you a picture of "Little E" in the sweater I made for her for her Birthday.

I think it fits great with room to grow and to be able to wear with tops underneath! She a happy little one❤





Couldn't leave out "Little-Big A", I bought them these matching dresses with leggings. There are so many sweet clothes for little girls. They love to wear dresses!!!



I think I will leave you all with some Fall pictures from around here. Foliage isn't as great as past years, I think because we have had so many raining days that a lot of the leaves have fallen.




Pasture on my road



Delicious apples-sweet and crisp




Ponies and Jack (leroy was scared) down our road




Some color




Beautiful sunrise out my front door





Can you see the sheep?



Hasn't Leroy grown?



Jack says good bye and no more swimming in this pond!!!!!!!!!



Well, I'm doing to say good bye. Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to read my lengthy  post. I appreciate all my followers and new friends too.

Take care, xoRobin❤
