16 year anniversary!

Post by ladybug15057 »

Yesterday (June 17) marked our 16 year hermie anniversary! We have had majority of our little ones now for 16 years... and oh my what a learning process it has been! :D

Nope, do not have/had blues Aussie, so that's another one! :)
Way too many pictures of Grandson pictures, and after all this time only so many more pictures one can take of their hermies. ;)

Sometimes if one wants to keep a site "free", they need to keep their volume down. ;) Watching a 3 year old at my age while mom and dad work keeps me pretty busy too. Dinner time any more equals R&R time for ga'ma as lil one is still flying through the house, but mom and dad are on duty them! XD
