Bill
& Dr Clay Anderson of Ellis
Fischel Cancer
Center
Bill
is now in another dimension of peaceful love that has enveloped him with
unimaginable joy!
I
miss him terribly but wake each morning to watch the sunrise and thank him for
the wonderful and loving life we shared for almost 34 years!
My
dream has always been to live on an acreage and he made sure this dream and
all my other dreams came true!
He
used to say that he lived his life to make me happy! He is my hero! I am full
of pride and joy that I was blessed to call him "Lover, Sweetcheeks and
other intimacies!
He
left this world on Halloween night
at home in my arms!

Our son,
Jamie visited us from Denver, CO and built a new well house for us as well as
mending fences, clearing fence lines, scooping poop, cooking and keeping us
smiling! We can't wait for the next visit! We had a great time and miss him
terribly!

Bill's
sister, Jeannie (nickname "P"), and Kathy Jo (our
daughter-in-law/cousin) came for a visit. They arrived on Thursday evening,
August 23rd, with Kansas City ribs in cart! We were very happy to be able to
put our arms around them, P & Kathy, and our lips around the ribs! Their
visit was too short and they left on Sunday!
Me & Olive many moons
ago!

Sadly
Bill's mother, Olive Petraglia, of Denver, CO passed away. We are very
saddened by her passing and will keep all the love and laughter she shared in
our hearts!

Force Base in Japan.

Bill
and Johnny meeting for the first time! I think they like each other? It was
funny because Star usually is all over me when I visit these two but she left
Bill and Johnny alone to get acquainted! I thought she might run Bill over or
knock him down but she gave him the space he needed to get his hands on Johnny!
Amazing little creatures!

Happy

Jason
and Mir and the kids, Lucas & Maya, are moving to the States from Spain
soon. They celebrated the Fourth and Kim's birthday yesterday and sent these

will be nice to have them closer!

I

Just
received these pictures from Virginia. Virg and Martha visited us in
early spring; late April or early May (can't remember)! We had a great time
and here is Martha's Rugrat!

Well,
gee...I haven't posted much this past month! Sorry...can't say I have been
busy...just not stepping up and getting things in the house done. It has been so
nice outside that we had to plant a garden!
Bill
built me raised beds this year so that we wouldn't have to remove new baby rocks
everyday from the garden! Ha! You know this part of MO sits on limestone ledges
of rock! Yes, ROCK!
We
are trying what is called "Square
Foot Gardening"! Here are a couple of pictures of the competed
beds. This first bed is only 3 feet by 3 feet and I planted 2 squares of acorn
squash, a tomato plant, 4 Anaheim peppers, cilantro and green onions. It has
been only a couple of weeks and seeds have all popped up except one species of
peppers.
This
second bed is only 3 foot by 6 foot. I have planted 2 squares of beans on each
side of the tomato plant in this bed, a row of eggplant, 2 rows of peppers and
the front row is basil! Have to have Pesto and Chile this year!
It
has been only a couple of weeks and seeds have all popped up except one species
of peppers in the big bed.
The
small bed has really taken off!
Yummy
tomatoes!

Dang
weather! It rained last night so we had to call the Donkey Fun Show! The rain
date was May 5th but because our judge is not available on that date we are
looking at a June date for the show. We have to coordinate dates with the judge
and the saddle club.
I
had jumps packed in my car, trophies, etc. I was really bummed out all day
because I was ready to rock-n-roll and it didn't happen! Donkey shit happens!

I
forgot to post the picture of my sister, Tammy, and her son, Hudson, during
there October weekend working for Clinton Anderson! They certainly look happy!
My sister is the middle of the front row on her knee in the white sweater and
her eyes closed! And Hudson is standing in the back row ... last one to the
right in the gray t-shirt and navy and white cap! They had a blast and will be
helping Clinton in the future!

Spring
has sprung around the Ozarks and every one is anxious to do spring time grooming
so they look their best for visitors!
R
Star loves scratching her ass! That baby is due in May! We are hoping for red!
She is bred to MGF Jock! We will keep you posted!
And
of course the land is coming to life!

Boy,
I guess it has been quite a while since I took any pictures around the place. It
has been really warm and today...brrrrrrrr!
I
weaned Sugar Plum and did some separating of donkeys. Trying to put girls that
need a little extra together. This icy, cold winter was a little hard on them.
So, some feed pellets are in order.
Take
a look and see the newest pictures from the other side of the fence!
Left
are Lindo and Angel Dust, right Brumley and Lindo! They want outside the pasture
into the front yard to eat the ornamentals! NOT!
Star
is going to have a foal in June?
 
Sugar Plum is braying to Mum!
The
Guineas love our "Annie"! They follow her every where and ride on her
back around the pasture!
