Scarlet's head scratch


Most evenings Kevin wraps Miss Scarlet up in a towel & scratches her head. my job is to feed her. Tonight, she decided she wanted to cuddle with me. I flipped her on her back & scratched away. She almost fell asleep like this. We thought it was hysterical. Maybe she thinks she's like one of the dogs???

Our Day with "the boys"





Fr. Rod asked Jami, Kevin & I to come over Monday evening to help with the Alpaca health stuff. He didn't want to give them their shots but he & I had been given instructions earlier. Off we went to the pasture. We were joined by Sr. Pat. Kevin & Jami each held Specs & Nibs while Fr. Rod & I administered their shots & worming paste. Yummy! I told Rod that he was like a nervous parent so next time I was going to ground him to his car until I was done. All went well & the boys have forgiven me. Jami & Kevin were pros!!!

Kevin's 50th


My dear husband has caught up to me once again. He turned 50 on October 7th. The kids & I celebrated with him at Cameron's that evening. It was great fun. Great food & wonderful company.

The photo is one I took in Ireland. Isn't he handsome???

Kevin's B-day getaway







On Friday, October 3rd, we left Columbus & flew to Savannah, GA then drove to Beaufort, SC for a birthday celebration weekend. We stayed at a lovely B&B named The Cuthbert House on Bay Street. The weekend was fabulous. Tom & Kris met us down there & we had another lovely couples weekend.

The community was having their Shrimp festival so there were lots of folks milling around. We went on a carriage ride with a huge Belgian draught named Cisco Kid. He was gorgeous...19 hands & 2500 lbs (I think our guide said). Anyway, after the ride, we all decided ice cream & a walk through the village would be good to look again at the fine old home.

Here are a few photos...Happy Birthday my love!
