A WONDERFUL VISIT WITH JAIME, GLEN, AND RILEY!

Not sure if anyone remembers Cinnamon and Mac, but these first few pictures were taken back in June. These siblings were originally from the Osceola Animal Shelter in Arkansas. Well, these lucky babies took a trip to our friends in Wisconsin in June (if my mind is working correctly). Both of these cuties have been adopted! The greatest part is that Mac (now Riley) was adopted by our WI friends Jaime and Glen! We were so excited to visit this little guy (well BIG guy now at 65 pounds!) during our visit. Thank you Jaime and Glen for providing such a wonderful home for him! We had so much fun visiting all of you!

Mac when he was just a little guy not long ago!
He was handsome even then!


Here is Riley now at approximately 10 months old now and is not only precious, but he's the sweetest boy you will ever meet!
Glen playing frisbee with his boy!
Glen with his boy again!

Look how big he is...crazy!

Kevin was just amazed with him (as was I)

Riley knows so many tricks- what a great family he has to spend time with him!

Riley wouldn't leave Kevin alone...I KNOW he remembered Kevin!

So happy to see Riley :)

Riley loves his kitty friend (sometimes too much- lol).


Awww kisses for Riley!

HANGING OUT AT THE ADOPTION CENTER IN NEENAH, WI!

Here are some more pictures of the clan hanging out at the Adoption Center when we arrived. We are so fortunate to have wonderful friends "up north" to help us out! Kevin and I thank each and every one of you for your part in this amazing rescue- we love you guys!

FUN IN THE SNOW...PICTURES FROM OUR WISCONSIN TRIP!

Oh my goodness...if I had only had a video camera with me! This "Southern Gang" had never seen snow before! They guys/gals had so much fun playing in the snow! Check out some of the pictures below!

Denise was so nice to shovel a path for the little ones :)

Meeting new friends!

Don't worry Malachite, it will be much easier to navigate the snow when you are grown!

Anna meeting the puppies for the first time!

Anna and Gracie had a blast!

This has to be one of my favorite pictures of Gracie- caught in mid-air! Wish it were better quality though. Click on the picture for an enlarged view!

Best buddies!

Gracie is FAST!

Sterling with Copper
They were so adorable to watch!

Copper thinks he is King of the Mountain!

Jewel seemed to enjoy the snow!
Ok maybe not...

How handsome is Copper!
Precious Amber- we think she might have some Pointer in her!

A LONG OVERDUE UPDATE!

It is getting very difficult to update this Blog AND Facebook (lol), so unfortunately the Blog suffered. Since it is now snowing, I finally have the time!

On 12/29/10, we loaded Jewel and pups, Anna, and Gracie into the vehicle to drive all night long to Wisconsin to safety! We love you Wisconsin Angels! Below are some pictures of our rest break in St. Louis. Thanks again Kelly for helping with potty breaks!

Kelly brought Tinkie out to meet the new visitors!

This is so much fun! Puppy pile!

Poor Jewel was just frozen...not sure what was going on.

Kelly with cutie pie Sterling!

Pat-a-cake, Pat-a-Cake...

Hey...I want to get out too!

Sweet Amber...she is such a loving girl!
