#FBF: Memories of Our Thanksgiving Huskies

Image
  Flashback ~ Thanksgiving 2016 ~ Harley, Bandit, Chloe & Wolfie     Oh,  how fun the holidays were with my beloved Huskies. Food prep was always an exciting time for them, well, almost as exciting as taste time! (Their dinner was turkey, sweet potatoes and green beans. Remember, no gravies, salts, or sugars!) While this was a bittersweet holiday as it was the first Thanksgiving without my Gibson, but I was--and always will be--forever thankful for the memories and the love we shared. Oh, how I loved the busy, crazy, silly household of Huskies! What a treasure. “We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.” ~Thorton Wilder   Wishing you all a Happy, Healthy, and Memorable Thanksgiving!  🧡 Memories Are Visits For The Heart🧡 Join Us!

And Then There Were Two Sibes...

"We miss our momma, Harley, and sister, Chloe, so much, but we're trying and doing better." So many of you have reached out to see how our Wolfgang and Bandit are doing since our beloved alpha queen Harley left us to meet our furangels Chloe and Gibson and journey to north of the Rainbow Bridge. Your support and caring has truly touched our hearts, both during Chloe's loss in June, and with Harley's passing just two months ago. This post alone I started and stopped and started and stopped for weeks. There is no sugarcoating it...it's downright sad, lonely, and so strangely quiet. While we do have Wolf and Bandit, everything here feels different. It's so surreal. My eyes still scan the yard as I mentally count for my five...even though it will be four years for Gibson in December, my heart and mind will always look for my FiveSibes, with memories flooding back of them running together so happy and free across my backyard.   Healing together...

Flashing back to last year with our beautiful "Chloe" on Thanksgiving! From our FiveSibes home to yours, we hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! "Thanksgiving is one of my favorite days of the year because it reminds us to give thanks and to count our blessings. Suddenly, so many things become so little when we realize how blessed and lucky we are." ~Joyce Giraud How We Spent Black Friday This Year!!! No busy stores or crowds for us! Just a lovely, warm evening being together in front of the faux fire! Wishing you and yours a peaceful and warm holiday season! Today's photo for Day 25: "Purple Flowers" of the #30DaysForEpiNovember Canine Epilepsy Photo Challenge hosted by Confessions of a Rescue Mom .

Gibson will always hold a very special place in my heart. I sorely miss his presence every single day with his larger-than-life personality, his deep soulfulness, his loving...
