Rachael...cute little bandit there! Sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved farm dog. I know that loss all to well...as I just lost my precious dog Bella less than a month ago. It hurts...and we will miss them beyond words! Sending you prayers and hugs, Peggy

Rachael I know how it hurts losing a family pet, I lost my dog (she was 17 yrs old) only 2 yrs ago. Miss her! Surround yourself with happy people during this time.

Joan and Peggy, I am so sorry for the loss of your furry friends too and thank you everyone for your kind words. My dog Kennedy was a great friend and I am just grateful to have known her.
I am glad everyone is having fun with the mail art exchange! I already sent mine out! L)

Hi to Beth Jones and Vickie Harrell-- I did send you both partners, so please check your spam boxes. I believe you got yours since this post, right Beth? Vickie I will send you another email, no problem. Thanks for letting me know, Ladies.
Also I am going on a trip for 6 days and am not sure how great my internet is going to be so please email me if you have any problems, but if I do not get back to you quickly, it is just because I am gone. I will answer every email when i get home, please don't worry.
Have fun and please post your pics!
Happy Trails!

Rachel,
I have that poem about the rainbow bridge framed.
It really has helped me in the loss of our sweet Bandit Bun. It helps ease the pain and sorrow when it's the worst.
Thank you ladies for sharing it with us.
Hugs, melissa 2281

Hello everyone, I am so sorry to not have gotten back to any of you if you emailed. I got back from LA with a cold. I am better now, and will answer any and all emails sent my way by the end of the day. Thanks for your patience.
Happy Trails!

Gracey-- I sent you an email today (Monday) so hopefully you got it. Not sure why you didn't get the first one but if you see this post on the forum and have NOT gotten my email please let me know.
Judy-- I am so glad you liked the mail art I sent! Those are all photos from my grandmother's albums-- they were to crumbly to keep so we digitialized them so we have copies and then my family was planning to throw them away and I couldn't bear it so I made them into cards. The ones I sent you were sort of farmgirl-themed. I am so glad you are sending them to folks overseas! So great!
