remembering Chester

Jon and Chester at our first house.



as a little pup







he really hated seeing Santa....
I loved putting him in sweaters....again, he didn't love it so much.










here we are on the road with Jon...he always liked to help with paperwork.
I love this "family pic" I took of the 3 of us.














again, torturing the poor boy for our own amusement.



















this is my absolute favorite pic - he loved to play ball.





It's hard to believe, but it's been a year since we lost our Chester. I miss that little dog so much - he had so much personality, and I don't care what anyone says, he really could understand everything I said to him. I hope you enjoyed these pics as much as I loved going back thru them and thinking about him. I have him in a great little jar (with fleur de lis - thanks Coleen!) on my fireplace mantel...he always loved hanging out with me watching tv...and I have the cute pic of him playing ball in there and a gumball and his collar, and an awesome printout that Coleen gave me - "don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened". Hard to do sometimes, but it is getting easier to smile when I think of him.

Holy Twins, Batman!!! I didn't realize how much Chester in his younger years looked like Bark. OK Next time your over, we will have a sit down with Bark and you can get a good face licking.
