Lisa's Animal Family Lisa's animal family continues to expand with the addition of a new puppy for Francesca and small flock of chickens for the yard! Lisa is getting very attached to the chickens, going so far as to sit watch over them to protect them from hawks. They're cute, funny and each one has a different personality; Buttercup is a show-off, Yum-Yum bosses everyone around, and Josephine never shuts up. New pup Pip, named after someone else with great expectations of a big city, will go off to New York City with Francesca. But Lisa is hoping that there will be plenty of visits back home! Francesca's new pup, Pip. Pip, on cuteness patrol! Willy visits with the new neighbors. The gals, having a cuddle party. Sadly, Lisa and her daughter lost their beloved Lucy this year. This photo is in memoriam of her. Embracable Lu. Ruby in charge. Mimi destroys a screen. Kissy kissy! A cool picture of Willy. Lisa's watch dogs. Mimi finds herself up a tree. Mimi, mid-July. Writing pals. At eight weeks old. Mimi is very affectionate and the braver of the two. Vivi is a litte more timid. Lucy, Angie and Penny with their summer crew cuts. Ruby blows a kiss. SUPER MODEL! Here are Lucy, Penny, Angie and little Ruby romping in this winter's first snowfall — an annual event that the entire family gets in on.
