What can I say? She's a Ham...

Azlin loves to be in front of the camera. This little hard hat lady looks like she's got some of her great grandpa Thompson in her doesn't she?
Kissy Face!
She is so beautiful.
She loved Sid and he loved her.

Busy Summer

Grandpa and Uncle Kelly couldn't fill the water balloons fast enough to keep up with these kids and Bo. Bo loves to catch them in his mouth, and he doesn't pop them!
Dusty slipin and slidin.
Hunter, who is going to be an H2O engineer of some kind when he grows up, shows them how it's done!
And Mads gets a face full of water!
These three are such dorks. This was Madison's birthday party, I guess they were the clowns?

Birthday Kids

Hunter and Chance celebrated their birthdays together. Hunter turned 5, Chance turned 12.
Big birthday smile!
Madison, beautiful birthday girl!

Odds and Ends...Lots of Odd!

We do crazy things to amuse ourselves, like drive trucks over cars and what not.

Kyler says "Have you seen my beach ball?"..."I think it went thataway" he is a nut in training!
Madison is all geared up for her first Harley ride.
Off they go! Randy said she was so excited she was "squealing" all the way down the road!

Randy and Lissa...Harley Lovin' ain't they cute?

The Big Five Ohhhhh!

Yes, the Old Guy turned 50! We had a big bash, must have been 100 or more people there. We pulled out a lot of surprises, Randy was doing the "this is your life" thing here and making him guess who???
He was VERY surprised to see friends he hadn't seen in a long time!
Here he is when he realized his buddy Doug came to wish him happy birthday.

Goodbye Dear Friends...

Napi taking a nap with Dusty.
Sid, last Christmas, in his favorite spot on the couch.

It has been a particularly hard month for the Cunninghams, we have lost two of our dearest friends. Sid, left us on June 30th, and Napi on August 6th.

"Walk with a Friend"

Because you will not be forever,
Hope against time though I may,
I paint your picture in my memory,
Eyes blue with age, muzzle gone gray.

Because you walked with me in Springtime,
Puppy-clumsy, running free.
As you grew, we grew together-
You became a part of me.

Because you shared with me my sorrows,
Not understanding- simply there.
Often spurring me to laughter--
My friend, you know how much I care.

Because the years have slowed your fleetness,
Though your spirit still is strong.
I promise I will take more time now,
So that you can go along.

Because you do not fear the future,
Living only in the now,
I draw strength from your example-
Yet time keeps slipping by somehow.

Because the day will soon be coming
When I will no longer see
You rise to greet me-but in memory
You will always walk with me.
