little close to the neighbors for us with the dogs. but, looks like an awesome site location. 

Wow!  you set up all by yourself (with the help of your kids)..  that's awesome.  not a lot of people would even think about attempting a trip like this.  :banana:  you done good.. ok, more now.

does anyone know this one?

and the best ride ever!! gone... :banana:  alright, not the best but, it was cool...

a few more of the parade..

i have a few to add.  these are around that same time.  i believe 1974.. and trust me, i am not positive where all of these were taken.  i, too, stole my folks pictures. hahaha

Here are a couple pages i did last weekend. the pics are from our easter trip 2010.  sorry, i didn't use my cricut cause we were havin' puter problems.  other than when i go to crops i always use my cricut on the computer.  i love welding my words,etc.  i miss it at crops and one day will probably get a gypsy so i can do more when i don't have the puter available to me.

i was thinking about going, but, found out the college spring break is in march-not anywhere near easter ..  oh well, maybe by next year we will have a normal schedule again.  until then you guys will just have to keep us updated with your trip reports...  :banana:

love the layouts, kristina.  i will post a couple pictures of layouts i did last weekend.  i have to go on the other computer to load them. 

very cool thread.. i might have something to add.  have to look..

i need to get some things together this weekend.  maybe  i will post a few pics.  lorna, i think piratejeff uses scal.  he has made a lot of stuff with his cricut.  sorry, cathys' cricut. lol  he uses that thing sooo much. :)

if you search for VOM techs-they are everywhere.  i would say around every 50 miles you will find at least 1 here in wisconsin.  but, not many people have heard of them and what they do. my vet was not sure at first until he saw her work on a shepard.  nobody trusted this dog.  the vet was always watchful of him.  when nancy started to work on him she tried really hard not to be hesitant with him.  she was concerned but did her whole routine on him.  by the end of the treatment the dog was rubbing against her.  he never did that to anyone-even the owners.  my vet was sold from that point on.

i guess it is like us gettig an adjustment or a massage-we feel so much better afterwards.  you can see the difference in the dogs too. 

see i knew someone would share...  nope, never made them.  looks like i am not the only one that has never made them.  ;D

i will check it out.  i buy wontons all the time to make homemade mozz sticks. mmmmmmm 

love the pics.  those make good puter backgrounds.. :rofl2:

if you ask tnBob nothing starts until after 9:00 AM..  :rofl2:

how could you do that to this poor little guy??  lol

j/k

i agree if it can wait have it done at the same time as the dental.  but, i would google it and see what you come up with.

very cute pics...

Here is Louise and her pups.  yes, all 7 of her pups were in the basket and she moved them over to get in next to them.  she was/is such a good momma.

we had to bottle feed the pups cause she got sick.  she was put on medications that we didn't want the pups to get-so she had to wear a onesie.  the basket(s) were used to keep track of which pups were fed and which were done.

When you drive through Custer State Park, you will probably run into these guys.

They stop traffic and beg for food as the cars try to get through.  They like cheetos.

we never got to meet these guys!  but, in the flaming gorge we did meet some wild horses.  almost the same picture. lol

forgot to mention-notice how he is smiling at the end of the treatment..  :raspberry:

these first 3 pics are of duke getting the first part of the treatment.  she goes all the way from the shoulders, down the spine and into the hips.  she uses this tool that clicks and i believe it puts the joints back into place. not positive but that is how i see it. lol  she goes down the spine 3 times and can see the reads start to clear up.

the next thing is like a little jack hammer. lol my description - not correct. lol  but, she uses this to help massage the joints all the way down and longer in areas that need it.

the last two pics are of the alpha sonic machine that she uses. 

the last thing she uses is the cold laser.  you can see everything that is used and what it is used for (not in my words-lol) on her blog.  it is really neat and it is great to the difference in dogs that you wouldn't think would ever change... 

i have taken two of my dogs to a VOM (veterinary orthopedic manipulation).  this is like a chiropractor for animals.  not the same-but similar.  the VOM is less agressive adjustments.  this is the blog that nancy has up and running.  i am going to be putting my testimonial on it soon.

Acute and non-acute lameness

Urinary and fecal incontinence

Unilateral lameness

Wobbler's Disease

Increased of decreased GI mobility disease

Digestive disorders

Many more

VOM's work on horses, cats and dogs.  thelma had a knee that she popped out the knee cap.  we went for treatments and she was feeling much better but, then she blew out her other knee.  which is common with luxating patellas.  so, we did more treatments.  it didnt' take long - maybe 6 - 8 treatments and now you would never know that she had a problem.  she does know her limits-like she won't go up stairs.  i have to carry her up. 

duke did something to his hip/back leg.  we took him in and he is much better.  he is not completely healed-he is a young boy and doesn't know he can't run and body slam into the others without getting hurt again.  so, he goes in on a more regular basis.  but, both the dogs are doing great after treatments.  i have seen rescues go from being hunched over and not looking around to tailwagging and heads up.  this is a great option for any issues your pet may have.  i will post a few pics of dukes treatment in a little while.

check out her blog and keep an open mind to other treatment options..

i love my cricut.  my friends here in the northwoods and i do crops a couple times during the winter.  gets us out of the house and we have a great time.  a few of the girls at the crops walk down to one of the bars and bring their drinks back.  we have a great time and if you want to get some pages done find a crop and go have some fun...

just kidding!!!  but, really i need an egg roll recipe.  they have to be easy to make and i want to make some.  so- anyone got a good recipe?

that kind of scared me... i saw crafting and tnbob after it.  lol  :worship:

have a great time... :popcorn:
