Flashback ~ Gibson ~ Circa 2014   If there is one thing Gibson taught me, it was how to enjoy the little moments that were so special in each day. Even though he had epilepsy, he never let it or the medications dull his zest for life. A simple walk brought such joy to him; feeling the breeze on his fur; laying in the cool grass; sniffing flowers; snuggling with his love Harley and younger siblings Wolf, Chloe, and Bandit; watching a train go by; playing in the snow; licking ice cream; going for a car ride; splashing in a pool on a hot day; and just being petted. Gibson enjoyed it all. A wonderful message for us all. Thank you, my sweet Gib, for the reminders.       (You'll have to screenshot it!)         Back to FiveSibes Blog Home Page Visit our FiveSibes Website!    Visit our FiveSibes Facebook Page!    

  Flashback ~ Chloe & Bandit ~ 2014   And the culprit...Binx! Oh, how he loved to sit right under the window or rub against the screen and drive Chloe and Bandit bananas!  (Look at that innocent kitty face! How could he even dream of tormenting the Huskies?!) MOL! Sure do miss those crazy days.   "Meow."       (You'll have to screenshot it!)       Back to FiveSibes Blog Home Page Visit our FiveSibes Website!    Visit our FiveSibes Facebook Page!

As with spring and Easter being a time of renewal, Wolfie and I are happy to be back to sharing our #FiveSibes #FlashbackFriday Blog Hop to travel down Memory Lane together and reminisce about special times of yesteryear or yesterday!  Flashback ~ FiveSibes Easter Bunnies ~ 2012   I thought a great flashback would be of an Easter past with all of  my beloved FiveSibes...even if there were a few grumpy Huskies at donning bunny ears (Wolfie and Bandit)! BOL! They were always good sports for all my photoshoots, and... Wolfie even *happily* donned a new set of ears for Sunday's Easter post, so come back and visit us on Easter to see! Another fun (and a bit funny) was a JibJab video I created of my FiveSibes from ten years ago for Easter of 2011! Wow. Time sure does fly...but my five had such wonderful personlities, and Huskies are quite the characters, so this "Let's Go To The Hop" video was a perfect fit! I do hope it will bring a smile or chuckle to you, too!   F...
