A Family Tree

I was sitting in my chair today when I glanced over and saw this.

June 2 015

Ah yes, a boy and his mother.

It’s sort of funny. Arnie is up to 16 pounds while his little sister, Anneliese remains at 13. I think he will be a big boy like his grandmother Erika.

Erika.

While Anneliese will be smaller liker her Mom and Grandfather, Meyer.

We were lucky to be able to visit the Vom Geestmoor Kennels in Rehden, Germany. We spent an afternoon with Herr Hollmann and his wife and their two daughters. I was able to see his Kennel set up, discuss with them their breeding program, and celebrate Hubby’s birthday and also Frau Hollmann’s.

Meeting Greta.

It’s so amazing when these little creatures come into our lives. They bring with them their own personalities and likes and dislikes. A lick from them can change a bad day into good, and a sleeping puppy in your lap can cure the worst problem.

Yes, our animals make our lives complete in so many ways.

  1. They are such beautiful doggies. I love the picture of you meeting Greta for the first time. 🙂

    Doggies are wonderful enhancements to life!!

  2. Great pictures! And I totally know what you mean about dogs being able to brighten up a day. Soxy can make me feel great when I feel like the rest of the world hates me.

  3. Hi Mom,
    Hope you are having a good day, and that the sun has come back out again! It is hot down here in TX–about 90 degrees, and to me it seems humid, but that might just be the always-hot-in-summer northerner in me!
    Love you,
    Mandy
