It was a sad day. On Friday, around 8:30PM, Auntie Sam and Gammy took Maggie to the hospital to be “put to sleep”. It was time. Grandpa stayed behind to “dig the hole”. It would be incomplete to not include this final chapter in Maggie’s life, Grandpa thought. Everyone loved Maggie. She was the sweetest dog, whose life was altered when she was crippled in still who knows how kind of way. Everyone took care of her for the next 8 years. It was a household effort, and I know all of us made the best of a tough situation. I know almost no other family could have possibly, or would have ever kept her so comfortable and I hope happy for so long. But now the journey is over… all we all hope is that Maggie has her good legs back in heaven… that would make the world a better place. You can check previous videos to see Maggie as part of our lives… And Scarlett always took such care of her.

This is the last picture I took of Maggie as she was sleeping in Grandpa’s office.

Grandpa gets busted as Santa Claus

Grandpa gets busted as Santa Claus this year.
For some reason, the beard from Santa was missing this year… so Grandpa had to figure out what to do. With a little creativity, we were going to go with the idea that Santa had a cold. Unfortunately, Gammie did not do a great job on the costume… Grandpa had to use a hat, tied from behind by a karate white belt. But, that was short lived, and “busted”.
