SCHOONER EDWARDS HANEY 2009

Sunday....

The cottage had company last night.

It was a festive affair with Eric, John, Judy, and

Judy's nephew, Colorado Jeff.   

We played Wii and had a splendid

time.  Eric and Dianna's dog, Darla had 

puppies a few months ago.   This is one of the

baby pups.   He looks remarkably like 

our Schooner (ah, a rabbit).   After a few chats,

our Schooner decided to give one of his favorite

paper boat hats to puppy.  

Laughter feels good all over.

Howdy,

Meet Lilly!   She was adopted from a shelter by my

oldest niece, Shelby.  So many dogs and cats need good

homes.   Adopt a pet and your life will be blessed.

With love,
