One Year Ago..............




It's so very hard to believe that you have been gone a year...........we all miss you so very much......working in the garden, feeding the birds, dreaming, sipping tea........and most of all how you loved all of God's creation.
It is so difficult to go on, and even more difficult to try and celebrate Angus' birthday on the same day........so we know celebrate life.....yours, Gussy dogs, and especially Becky, who loved you instantly.
We can all still see you holding her in your lap for hours, that very first day she came.

Rest well Deb.....we know that you are gardening with the angels now for sure!

"For he's a jolly good fellow........

Gussie Plays The Blues.....

Then..............


and now...............


............and do you know why? Well I'll tell you...That little guy is celebrating a very special Barkday this weekend........lucky number 13....yes lucky...while Gus may be starting to feel his age a wee bit, he is still the trooper.
We are so lucky because we are blessed to still have him.....because while his health is not great ( we suspect Cushings Disease as of today), it could have been worse...the news could have been very bad....but it wasn't and now this little guy deserves a PAWTY!!!!!!!!!!!!
So here is the plan....we decided that since it is Academy Award Night, what better reason to don costumes and celebrate a dog's life....to celebrate several lives...for one who is so close to our hearts, and for one who we now celebrate in Spirit.

For My Valentine..........


"Love is patient, love is kind.


It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.


It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.

It always protectsalways trusts,


always hopes,




always perseveres.

Love never fails.1 Corinthians 13:4"

It's All Just TWOOOOOOOOOOOO Much!!!!!!!!




TWO?

REALLY?
It seems like only yesterday you were just a wee lass....
Two years with two dogs

( well not really dogs....we know that Scotties are just old souls in furry little four footed bodies ;o).......Becky makes it seem like FOUR..two times two!!!

It's so hard to believe...

two times the chaos...."Becky stop chasing the cat.......NOW and stay away from the flowers......PULEEEEZE!!!!"

two times the peace.........."Becky you look like an angel when you gaze at me like that ;o)"

two times the fun......"Becky where's Gus....go find your brother..........no not him..........you silly goose"


two times the work......."Oh Becky.....are you scattering those leaves again?"

two times the love......."My goodness can you be any happier a dog?"

two times the tears........

"I know my sweet love, we will miss them so very much too...but you touched their lives,as they did all of ours, and for that we are blessed...and they loved you so very much."

but above all two times the joy.....pure joy...joy joy joy....that's what our girl is....unbridled sheer joy..........bursting with love, always wagging her tail, winking and batting those gorgeous eyelashes at everyone ( what a hambone!!!)


That's what Becky has brought into our lives..smiles.. a lighter heart to a home that so desperately needed a new beginning, something to look forward to....a way of meeting SO MANY new friends, even if only in cyber space.

Today we celebrate the day our Rocky Creek Scottie came into our lives, along with eight other squiggly wiggly puppies....

On Saturday we will be having the REAL party.........we invite you all to come back and join us..who knows what surprises are in store..until then...HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECKY BLUEBONNET!!!!
