Don & Maureen Family Blog
This site seem to have wiped out the pretty wall paper Keri added last week to my blog. I have tried to install it again but seems I can't read the instructions right, there are only 9 steps to follow. Still I hope you can enjoy the pictures and news and will have new pictures to add later. I have a download to Picturetrail on the side bar so I'm trying to add new pictures and welcome any you have to share. Just email them to donmaur@mebtel.net jpg. format if possible. I want to Thank Keri again for her help in getting and helping me with this site. I couldn't have done it without her.
Beautiful day today, going over to Matt's parents to watch a showing of the pictures taken of Luke and the Generation grandparents and parents. Mike and Sandy both photographers do such a good job - how lucky are we to have their professional skills.
Holly and I had a play date with Luke and Sam yesterday. It is so great to have a baby in the family again. I've never seen Kelly or Russ so happy as when they are around that little guy. Kelly won't let Luke cry for a second. Sandy their dog doesn't want Holly around Luke, (We don't either cause Holly is so big and one paw on ya can knock you over) but we were outside and Sandy refuse to let the other dogs near the baby.
Don took Holly and our neighbors dog (150 lbs) both out for a walk this morning. Tytis(?) is so big but a gentle dog. A bike rider complain about her when she was a few months old and now this dog has to be chained up 24/7 or they will put her to sleep. The bike rider threw rocks at her. We are not to happy with bike riders on our roads out here, on week ends we have gangs of 30 or more riding together down the middle of the road. Tytis still visits us in the evening for a treat then runs back home. She just walks in Holly's door and stand by the treat jar.
Thank you all for your nice words about this blog.
