Another Busy Summer

Oh Jeeez, where to start. After Jim and I got back from my family reunion the next Sunday we went to his family reunion. Which was held locally so we didn't have a 30 hour drive to go to it. We had a ginormous pot luck in a beautiful park by the Missouri River. It was a bit chilly but we had a wonderful time. Then this last weekend of course was Father's day and we had the usual family dinner. But Hobbs (the 16 year old kitty) had been failing recently so I made an appointment with the vet knowing he would recommend that Hobbs go to sleep. So we lost one of our beloved pets Saturday. All last week as Hobbs got weeker and weeker Hunter and the M&M would curl around him to keep him warm the goodbyes were very emotional and the little guy has left an enoumous hole in our lives. My Jimbo also paid a visit to his Dr. and is in the begining stages of Sugar Diabetis. This only intensified the emotion of loosing Hobbs. Then also in this time frame Jim's son-in-law got a new job now he is out of town 5 weeks at a time home 1 week and then back on the road again. This has made Jim's daughter a single parent and almost a daily resident here with the kids. It's a wonderful thing that we are friends and that the kids love grandma. Well that's all for now.
