hugs Kassie
ok me back..... too funny I just noticed you were not on when I got the phone call......
boy do I feel silly .. :redface: but funny
Hi Judi,
This is so cool! It is really nice to be able to get to know you better, and your family and your way of life. I just love the picture of your son holding the cow, that is so sweet. Tako and the heifer - that is just to funny! Animals are so cool - they just amaze me with the things they do. And they say cows aren't smart. Right!
Mandy. Now this just cracks me up! We have a dog that is a Scot Terrier and she is what we call our "barn dog". All I will say right now Judi is ; your's is much cleaner than my little white dog!
Thanks for sharing Judi - I really enjoyed the wonderful tour of your home - family (including all the animals) and your way of life.
I have learnt here on TT that Teddy Bear people are very special people indeed.
And, this is truly a wonderful way of getting to know the person behind the bears.
I look forward to tomorrow!
Hugs Judi :hug: :hug: :hug:

Hi judi,
I just got in here ...... :doh: but I have a long distance call will be back :hug:
Kassie
Hi everyone,
Hey Judi what a great report. I just love the cow calling! I would love to be a fly on the wall while this was all going on, but in this case I would be hiding in the bush somewhere near the person making the funny noises. Crack me up!
That is amazing thro. I have only seen the "picture taking" once, but no cow calling. Your farm is wonderful. Your children are lovely. I had no idea you had such young kids! Mine are all grown up and I am a Grandmother of five - boy do I feel "older"
*wink*
Flying Bride - Run away Bride has nothing on you Judi girl! What a hoot!
Beautiful farm. Being raised on a horse ranch, I know how much work aways needs to be done, but Dairy Farm! Let me tell you girls - from experience Dairy Farm is a lot more work. Never mind - growing wheat, corn, oats, soybeans, and alfalfa as well. Judi were do you find the time for bear making? WOW!
Mark and you must work very hard.
I got to tell you Judi. The very first time I saw your bears it was the little one you have on here with the frog. I love all your bears, but he just touches my heart.
Maybe one day I will be able to buy one. *grin* *grin*
Great report girl - can't wait until tomorrow! :dance: :dance: :dance:
This was a great idea, thank you for sharing your world with us. :hug: :hug:
Big hugs

Oh Jane,
That is great news! I am so glad to hear about Hollie! It is so good to hear! Good news has a wonderful way of making us feel better about our own loss.
I feel that before long we will have to remorgage the house as the vet's bills are so high but she is worth every penny.
Bless your heart Jane!
Continuing good thoughts and prayers for Hollie! :hug: :hug: :hug:

Thank you sweet Eileen,
I know and really know this. Thank you for sharing. :hug: :hug:

Kassie
Thank you Amanda.
I sit here and I just don't know what to say.
I think I will never share a heart felt story again. I say that only because is is very hard to deal with it, having to tell everyone on TT and touch their hearts and affect their lives.... is just too much.
Hugs kassie
I have such sad news. I feel very sad that I shared this story with all of you. I feel I have let everyone down, but more important I feel I let Peter down. My tears fall and my heart breaks to tell you. I have to take Peter Rabbit in tomorrow to put him down. I took him into my new vet to do some test just to make sure he was going to be ok.Today, the test results came back and he is not going to make it. From the test results, I was told he is very old and there is nothing that can be done. Let me explain. He was doing very well and I really thought he would make it. The new vet thought he would be ok too. But, today he fell again and he is not strong and has returned to how he was and he just didn't look good. I took him in to the new vet and she told me he was old and it would be hard to keep him healthy and happy. So, I have made the decision to not allow this to continue. My heart breaks and I just can't stop crying. Peter is 11 years old and what I am told he is very old for a rabbit. Go figger! I have had them live to 14!
I have held him all day ... knowing what comes tomorrow. I do that more for me I think than for him! I have to kinda smile here thro, looking at him, he is on my lap now as I type his fate on TT and he looks up at me as if to say. "Why are you sad, I understand it is my time. Why do you feel so sad?"
Animals are our most wisest teachers - I think, that when we are faced with losing them, we forget . Who do we really cry for? Us? them? Or both? I don't know, but what I do know is, it is very hard and sad to let them go. I have lost a lot of good friends in the animal world and . I ask myself. Why is it so hard to let them go? Is it because I feel sad for me or do I feel sad for them. Do I feel a loss for myself or do I feel a loss for them? Should I feel that loss? I'm I aloud to feel that loss?
In my belief. I believe in life after we are gone! I believe in happiness after we are gone! So, again I ask myself. Why do I cry when they leave me? No answer. Other than - "I'm I only thinking of myself?
Peter is still a Easter Bunny to me and will live as a Easter Bunny in my heart.

Hi Dilu
wow you really got dumped on!! I just love your house. I hate to say this, but I like the way your house looks in the snow. It really looks like it belongs in the snowy weather. Cool house. After saying that. I don't like snow! I come form the Yukon and it snows there six months of the year and I just could not take it any more so I moved away. I really love it there thro very beautiful country. For those of you who don't know where the Yukon is. It is Alaska's neighbor . Northwest Territories in northern Canada.
Most of my family is there and I miss it sometimes. I miss going fishing - riding my horse for miles with no one around - for miles. I miss the beautiful scenery. But, you just can't having everything.
I love to here in Salem. I was told that it does not snow here. Ya right! LOL This happened two years ago and we lost our power for five days. I was not a happy camper!
My husband has never been in the real cold so he doesn't understand that it can get really scary if you are not prepared. Wood stove - water jugs - etc.
Listen to me going on and on here. sorry.
Nice pictures Dilu. *grin* My thingy's are not working so I have to type them in. *happy Face*
Me going back to snoopy around.....
Later Dilu
Hugs
Kassie

peek at the other post Aleta. You can see what I've been thinking about these leprechauns and their gift.
But, really my smile is almost frozen in place. I could become the frozen teeth bearing artist. *wink* ha ha ha right?

"pants freeze and get stiff" - "me walk even more slow and the really funny looking" .... "ran from pretty pictures Kassity" ..."rrraannnn!!!!!!!"
