MEMORIAL DAY

[jackiesdaisy1935]

Did everyone have a nice Memorial Day? We went to our son's home for a b.b.q.. The weather was awful all weekend, just plain cloudy and a little rain. However we had a nice time and we took Perry and Daisy and they got to play all afternoon with their cousins Sunny and Rocky. I think they are the only dogs they get along with.

Glad you had a good day Jackie. Mine was a little sad because my family (mom, dad, sister) are all overseas and I miss them I also haven't been feeling good. Think I'm letting stress get the best of me. I'll be okay though. I got great little cheerleaders.

Something funny is Reece seems to be a walking cat toy. Whenever I switch out the cats (they can't be in the same room at all), the cat I bring in just jumps all over Reece attacking him until they get tired. Julius actually gets on top of him and crawls all over. Shiloh concentrates on his tail and legs, constantly tripping him. Whenever someone is hanging from his tail, he'll sit down really fast. I monitor it all closely to make sure no one is hurt. Its really fun to watch. Reece takes it all without a word. He actually enjoys it and will chase Julius all over.

Happy Memorial Day to you, too! My family and I, (not including Sadie May, though) went out on my dad's boat, to go fishing. But, we din't catch anything! I hate fishing! So does Sadie!

Daisy and I met up with my friends and Daisy's boyfriend Moe and we walked to our town's parade. Being a tiny town, it's a tiny parade but we had fun. We even got free hot dogs from our town store! Daisy loved that part the best. We got home just in time; a huge storm came, with lightning and thunder and rain and wind! Daisy spent the rest of the day napping contentedly Happy Memorial Day from Daisy and I!

On Sunday we went to a memorial service in Streamwood, IL which also included the dedication and unveiling of the war dog statue.

It was really neat, except for the weather - Rain, then sunshine, then rain, then sunshine, then rain, then hail, then rain, then finally sunshine for the rest of the day.

We brought Carl & Iris (Raven just went into heat so we couldn't bring her) and they had a great time, until it started hailing They were the best behaved dogs there, they didn't bark at the gun shots. And even the 20 or so police dogs that were there barked at the gun shots. I'll stop bragging about my pups, here are some pictures.




This is the statue. Behind it is the sculptor, Anthony Quickle.

There are more pics at my webshots album:

Sorry about the bad link. I meant to check it...

Does this one work?

I'm glad everyone liked the pictures! And yes, Cinder & Smoke, Carl and Iris and Raven have to put up with 2 cats. They're pretty good about each other though. There's no chasing and no fighting.

Sara ~ Yep Goes straight to the War Dog Memorial Album!
