I never thought I'ld be so happy to see September roll in.  It's been a dreadful summer.  Wildfires, evacuations, very stressful in deed.  Our skies are still thick with smoke and many fires continue to burn.  I'm tired of breathing smoke and using bottled water. I want to turn on my taps and drink the fresh mountain water once again.  

We did have some highs this summer. (other than the temperatures)  Turtle Gardens had a reunion in Burnaby.  I worried about how Molly would behave. She was an absolute dream.  We were so proud of her. King was the hit of many hearts and he loved reuniting with all his fellow TG alumni. 

Being evacuated we went to Mission in stead of Kamloops. It was so nice to visit with my sister and her hubby.  We were able to see their brand new house and be a part of them as they begin to transform it into a home. 

A visit to Burnaby meant a visit with Pam & Martin.  Finally after two years we break bread with them again.  We are so lucky to have such caring friends and family.  

Im feeling more relaxed being back home now. Im coping with the smoke and trying hard to carry on with daily routines.  Im painting cupboards, and painting my livingroom wall. Im going to be bold and brave and try an entire new color. Deep wine/burgandy. It matches our livingroom furniture.  Its fresh clean and a bold new step into places Ive never gone before LMAO.

 Laughter........ the best medicine! 

I've also added a couple new videos to YouTube. Have a look!

Kings first night home with us

Molly shows King where to wait for his dinner

We had a very quiet holiday this year. We spoke to all our family and loved ones even though we could not have them physically present with us. 

We are in the midst of adding another member to our family. He is a 10 year old Lab/retreiver mix.  We still dont know if our application to adopt him will be accepted but we are very hopeful.  You can visit the website to see all his details etc here.  http://search.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11103345   His name is King and we think he will be an awsome big brother for Molly. Please keep your fingers crossed for us. 

Best wishes to all in 2009

I've had a bit of bad health lately.

Poor Landie has had to do a fair bit of repairs lately. First he rebuild his truck engine, then my cars engine needed repairing.

Shame he cant just rebuiild his wivey as well (tee hee)

 All in all we're doing well enough. Our yard and gardens are once again flourishing.

Kids and Molly are happy little campers. I'm going to brag about Kathi here so enjoy the links to her new Agility video and a few pictures.  Also few flower pics for you to enjoy.

Visit our photos on any of our pages.  I've added Ice Fishing & sledding pics on Flickr, so have a look.  I'll put the link with all of our others in the right hand column over there ------------->>>

Merry Chritmas and Best Wishes for 2008
