Zeus, my older of 2 Havanese granddogs, was born 1/22/2012. It’s only fitting that he was being held by his favorite person when he died 7/11/2024, on his way to the after hours emergency vet. He was the serious older brother to Orion & is missed by all of us!

Jan. 11, 2019: celebrating Paula & Ben’s January birthdays & Ben & Karen’s anniversary 1/11/2019, with our daughter a few months before Bob died.

Christmas Eve 2024.

We had a couple of very windy days at the end of last week that felt like I was back in Kansas! Christi’s family got an artificial tree for the first time & she’s been missing the Christmas smell. She found some downed evergreen branches (They’re everywhere!) & made this today,

Christi’s birthday cake.

Today Christi’s family had their annual Christmas gingerbread house decorating combined with Christi’s birthday party. The finished houses are on the 3rd shelf.

My daughter’s Christmas tree. I got to hang out with her family yesterday. She fixed breakfast for us then I watched her family hang their ornaments.
