Dear Family and Friends, Once again time has gone right by me so quickly...We keep such a hectic pace nowadays. This fall has been a good one...full of family and friends. We had a great dinner night a few weeks ago with Ron and Judy...just before Halloween and it was great Ribs and food that Judy made for us all. Ken & Jill Buckley also were guests and it was a fun evening. Judy goes all out decorating for the holidays it is near...so felt like it was our celebration for halloween that night.
Then the next few days we spendt here getting things ready for winter before we took off for Eric's home in Washington. Left on a Wednesday and came back on a Monday...Just right for a good visit. He is doing well and keeps a steady pace with his job and all. Has a new room mate Steve ...a old friend from Georgia when he was stationed there.
I will make a slide show in the next few days of the trip...to share what we did there...Got to have dinner with my sister Loretta and her husband Bob one night also...and spendt halloween night with Kristen and Christopher and their children and her mother in law for that evening. We went trick or treating and I took viedo of the night...was loads of fun...but alittle on the colder side. My sister wasn't feeling well that night and just stayed inside...she had walking phemonia and didn't know it.
So when we got back home all was well...We really miss Copper...our German Shorthair...He got sick about 3 or 4 weeks ago and we had to put him to sleep. He was such a sweet baby...and was 14 years old...He had one last good summer and really felt pretty good til the last few days...Who could ask for more...he had a great life and all the space he needed to run and chase birds and squirrels...It is strange to be without our old friend and buddy now...he greeted me each time I got home and always showed his excitement when things were happening. Dogs are pretty special...
well guess that is about all for now...must get ready for work..that always waits for me...
We will talk again soon before the holidays arrive...
Hugs & Prayers,
Bette Jo
P.S. Eric might come home for Christmas this year...Wow! I am so excited.!!!
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions.
Small people always do that, but the really great ones make
you feel that you, too, can become great."
