well, today we celebrate our brave and beautiful gayle's four month ampuversary!!!  instead of a major 'blow-out party', we kept it low key…we had our acupuncturist dr. bass come to our house and give both of the girls the royal (albeit stickery) treatment…can we say 'AHHHHHHHH'…   ice cream for everyone!!!!

charon & gayle

p.s., that sound you hear in the background is not one of those south african horns, it is the sound of tapping knitting needles….

Life is good, so very, very good!!! Gayle enjoyed each and every moment of each and every wonderful day (naps included).  She left this world December 12, 2011 – off on a new adventure. Love Never Ends http://etgayle

Congratulations Gayle!!! Way to go girl!!!

oops sorry, I was typing and my ice cream started melting, oops, I just licked the screen but I didn't get it all. Here comes Charlie, he'll clean it all up. Whew, can't let the chauffeur see that sticky stuff all over the screen. Oh well…

I hope you have a ton more ampuversaries, enjoy your day!

F-O-U-R !  WOWSA!  I say you put on lullaby music and take a good little nap, Miss Gayle when your belly is full!  

Tell your mom to ditch the knitting and get busy eating lots of Ice Cream – the sock people can wait!  

 

I'll be joining Karen and Tani in blowing the diet with ice cream, too!  Comet says to add her "healthy" peanut butter cookie with it!

MANY HAPPY MORE, GAYLE!

 

 

Shelby, you don't eat ice cream and type at the same time!  My goodness girl you've only got 3 paws!

Happy 4 Month Ampuversary Gayle!! So pawesome! Wow – ice cream and tapping knitting needles – now that sounds like a great way to celebrate! (Also watching the Lakers and Celtics game especially when the Lakers win tonight! It will be on your 4 Month Ampuversary – yea!!!) 

Wishing you many, many more ampuversaries and celebrations!

My sweet golden Mackenzie.  She became my angel on Dec 29, 2010 at the age of 8 1/2  although she was always my angel from the time we brought her home.  She was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in Sept 2009 and officially became a tripawd (front leg) on Nov 5, 2009.  She will be forever in my heart and now she's running free with all of our other tripawd heroes.  I love you Mackenzie!

Happy ampuversary Gayle!! Sadie loves ice cream, but ice cream doesn't love Sadie, so we"ll have balogna  and biscotti in your honor cool.

Hugs and sloppy Sadie kisses,

Lisa & Sadie

Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end.  On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us. http://ranger.t.....pawds.com/
