Blue eyed, Blonde Barbie Doll

Cherie has started to get pigmentation in her skin. The skin on her nose is grey and around her eyelids are black. It's so funny. She has LONG blonde eyelashes and blue eyes and it looks like she is wearing black eyeliner. HAHA! I was calling her my little blue eyed, blonde hair Barbie doll. She is still keeping her palomino color with a beautiful white mane and tail.

She and Brownie both have become quite a pair of social butterflies. Cherie comes up to the fence when anyone is there calling for her. She sticks her head through begging for a scratch. I guess Brownie has conceded that she isn't going to be able to do anything with Cherie, so she just chaperone's everything and occasionally comes closer for a good scratch or to pin her ears back to remind us that its her baby and not ours. Yesterday, Cherie was following Cheryl around the pasture and Brownie was in tow behind her. It was pretty cute.

So, today we pick up our moving truck and we are going to start packing it tonight. We are going to finish it up in the morning and head out around noon, hopefully. If all things work well and go as planned. I have to leave all my four legged girls with Cheryl for a week. I am going to miss them SO much. Leaving them there isn't going to be the hardest part of all this, it's going to be when I bring them home. Leaving Cheryl's ranch is so hard. I have had such great times out there. I have laughed, cried, sulked and even been mad as fire. It's very hard to leave people who have been such great friends to me. These past 6 months there have been alot highs and alot of lows. Cheryl has always been there for me, no matter what. She has given me great advice, been a great listening ear and SO nice to the kids. I know the kids will miss them so much too. Julia told them that she was going to call them everyday. LOL... I am tempted to teach her how to dial Cheryl's phone number for her to do just that. HAHA! I am sure they will never get tired of talking to Julia, who never runs out of things to say, so it seems.

Thank you so very much for the beautiful plant and card. I am so glad that I didn't read it in front of the family. I stayed after work and cried for a good little while. I want you to know that the pleasure has been all mine with Matthew this year. He has a very special place in my heart! I want him to continue to do well...and please tell him to e-mail us...(no on-line poker though)
The pictures are wonderful and you are a very good story writer. Take care and I hope all goes well with the move.
