Family Pictures

We took some family pictures a few weeks ago that I thought turned out pretty good. I didn't order any small ones of the family so when I scanned them in to put on the blog I only could fit this one from a collage. Hope you enjoy!

Our 3 cute children

Putty

So we had to put Putty down on the 6th of July. He had hurt his back the week before, and we tried some dugs, but they just didn't work. It is a very sad time for me since we have had him for so long. We got Putty when Kade and I had only been married for one year. He has been such wonderful member of our family. He was kind to all of our kids and even helped entertain them sometimes. He cleaned up our kichen floor on a daily basis (I have cleaned the floor more in the past few days then I have the entire time we have lived in this house...that's over 3 years). He always alerted me when someone was at our door, which wasn't always a good thing. My favorite thing about Putty, and most dogs, is how excited he always was to see me. He would roll over and just shake in excitement. I remember sometimes crying and Putty would just lay down beside me and I will definitely miss that. I wish he were here right now since I am crying again just thinking about him. Those who know how attached I was to Putty might wonder how I am doing, and would have to say okay. I cried so much for his last week with us that I didn't have anymore tears left. During the day I am so busy that I don't have time to think about it, but it is at night when I start thinking about him that the tears start back up. Kade has been very patient dealing with his emotionally and physically drained wife. I also apologize to family for my not so happy attitude over the 4th and also to my friend Kimberly who I forgot her birthday...sorry. For someone like myself who hates writing I can't believe how long this is, sorry again. Just know I loved my dog Putty, he will be sorely missed, and he can never be replaced. I will always remember him.

He was of course the cutest puppy.

I love this picture of him by the hydrant.

He loved my Grandpa Bill,

and Kade's Grandma Amuma

This is Putty and his brother Zeus.

Putty and his sister Tinkerbell.

Putty had found this donut in the trash can.

Putty loved being by the wood burning stove where we use to rent.

We couldn't have asked for a better friend!!!

Sleeping Putty

Putty, like most dogs, loved sleeping anywhere. Of course taking pictures of a sleeping dog is darn near impossible since they have such good hearing. So needless to say in most of these pictures his eyes are open.

Putty loved laying down here because the heater came out under the cupboard.

This is Putty's sister Tinkerbell who came to spend the night one night.

Putty as a puppy laying on Kade. He was the cutest puppy.

I was trying to get in the same position.?

I just loved this one of him on the couch.

He loved crawling in the bouncer.

Dressing up Putty

This is Kade's brother Shay holding Putty. He cut up one of his own socks to dress-up Putty.

He always tolerated when I dressed him up (so I tried not to torture him too much)

Pictures with Putty

Jade snuggling up with Putty.

Ty is actually asleep in this picture on top of Putty he was such a sport.
Putty licking Zoe's mouth (I know most will think this is gross)

We all loved Putty!!!

Even Kade will miss him.
