Goodbye Smokey

Smokey fell ill on Saturday, November 15th and was in Pet Hospital till we found out he had Pancreatitus. Tuesday we were hanging onto hope that he might make it but liver failure presented itself. We said goodbye to Smokey November 19th and he was waiting for my mom to join him in Heaven. Yes it has been a rough week. He is no longer in pain. Our hearts are stronger since we had Smokey in our lives.

In Loving Memory of Eloise Willams

We have had a huge loss in our family. My mother, Eloise has passed away September 20th. She went peacefully and quietly as we held hands and listened to the Beatles "Let it Be and All You Need is Love". As most of you know my mom had battled with illness and dementia for the last 17 years. She is free of all her limitations. Elosie is survived by her two daughters, Debra Leonard of Bozeman, MT and Angela Melero of San Leandro, CA. She is also survived by her Mother, Columbia Turner, Pacifica, CA and two grandchildren Cole and Ella.

Sesame Street LIVE

I won tickets for the whole family to attend Sesame Street Live! It was fun and the Kids had a blast! We forgot the camera but used our cell phones to take some Pictures. Here is our view from our seats. One thing about Bozeman and the Field House is that there is no bad seat.

Cole being goofy and really excited. He stayed seated for the whole show except for a time when he HAD to shake his groove thing.

Ella was constantly moving and dancing. After the intermission Chad and Ella went to the floor to have more room for her dance moves. Ella even got to meet Grundgetta, Oscar the Grouch's Girlfriend. We did not get a picture of that because it was too dark and had no flash. Ella was a little shy and clingy to Daddy.

Cole was just enjoying the show from his seat singing and loving the dancing.

Cole and his light up spinner. A reward for Great Behavior. Look closer and you can see Chad and Ella through the colors.
