Many tears here last week. Our 'other' kiddies visited us for a week while their daddies were away. Below are Lester, Sophie, my Alex and Kalani. On the day our friends returned, Sophie's right eye was in a bad state and they were faced with the most difficult decision doggy parents have to make. We're gonna miss you Soph girl.

  1. It is difficult when we have to let go of our fur children. Sad. Love your socks. That's the yarn I'm going to use for the Kate shawl. Probably red. I want some bright yellow socks, just because they would brighten up a cold, bleak winter day!

  3. Your socks are nice, and made all the better by your modeling friends.

    And I'm sorry for the loss of your friend's pup. I know how that hurts.
