Hahaha!!! That is so cute!!!
Harlowe did that on the deck, and it scared me too!!
In the picture you can see that one of the spindles is crooked. I am wondering if he has been stuck before and that is how it became loose. I feel like I have four more kids with these animals cheesy
Continued prayers for you and your Grandma, she sounds like a wonderful woman!
It's so nice to hear how much Jacob enjoyed the retreat, that is awesome. Sending good luck wishes for Elizabeth's Nutcracker auditions!
Have fun!!!
Btw, what are your plans for the 4th?
We are heading up north to Adrian's boss's house on the lake for his annual bash. But, it's on the 3rd. My parents & Jazzie are kind enough to come up & stay with Harlowe so we can go. So appreciative about that, especially with all of the fireworks going on already. They make her anxious. We should be home late that night/early Thursday, and then we'll celebrate the 4th with my parents! We got some steaks to grill, and I will also make some cheesy au gratin potatoes, and corn on the cob. I'll be making my taco dip to snack on, as well. Mom is making my favorite Magic Cookie Bars- we aren't going to go hungry
That's so nice that your parents are going to stay with Harlowe for you. I know what you mean about the fireworks. People are setting them off around here already. I went for a walk with the dogs the other night and someone set something off that was so loud it made a car alarm go on. Maggie couldn't breathe, I had to turn around and come back. I hate fireworks like that. Anyway, I do not go out on the 4th because I am worried about leaving the animals. I always have people here. This year I will have my parents and my brother and his family. Your menu sounds yummy, I have to work on mine today!

Our troubles are so small, compared to what your grandma and your family are going through ... you're all in my thoughts.
Mr. had some breakfast and was up and around in the hallway this morning with his I.V.-on-wheels, but his incision is very sore. When I talked to him this morning on the phone, he sounded good, but hadn't been examined yet by the neurosurgeon. I'm anxious to find out whether the shunt system was contaminated by the infection, because if it was, that might mean more surgery and a few weeks in the hospital. I'm going to see him on my way home from work tonight---hoping for good news.
Getting very crowed here, so much fun! But the rain we were told we would not get has started and since I am not prepared for that we are going home. Will head out this evening for parade and fireworks.
How sad for you and your whole family, Ryan. It is tough to lose someone young. Thinking of you all.
Thank you! God is good, and we're all good...we will be just fine.
And Mr. being in the hospital is a big deal...I'll keep praying for him! Besides, if he's not out of the hospital, who will I turn to for all my classic movie questions?! I need Mr. around so you can keep going to him on my behalf for information! :wink:
They "switch the collars around"? What in Heaven's name for? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard! I don't use the "stupid" word very often, but their behavior screams stupid!
Very interesting, Star!

It is hot here--well over 100. Our weather report said it was 120 degrees in the areas south of us. (Death Valley was 136). I think it was 107 here yesterday.
Not one person on here would accuse you of "ranting," Ryan. Your family is sure going though a lot right now. Prayers going heavenward, my friend.
You will look back one day and realize that giving up your vacay helped make your daughter a star!!!
We are right there with you in spirit, Merry. Incisions do hurt, so I hope Mr. recovers soon. Take care of yourself, too!
