Happy Holidays and a Foozer kitty update

Happy Holidays to everyone. We are off to Spain tomorrow morning at the unheard of time of 3:30 AM. But, we will be sauntering the streets of Barcelona when we get there so it should be worth it. There is a Children's Festival while we are there so we will go to that one day. Also, we are planning to check out the zoo. On Christmas we will go to the Gaudi Cathedral, Sagrada Familia, or the Barcelona Cathedral in the Gothic Quarter for services and singing. Also, I guess Barcelona is into the nativity scene and have recreated it in a large way so we wil go check that out.

On a sad note, two days ago, Foozer, our dear, loveable, outgoing, white cat passed away from kidney failure. He has been with Rob's mom since we moved. She was concerned and took him to the vet. After tests, they said his kidneys had almost completely shut down and the best thing was to put him to rest. So, we are sad, but feel the irony in his time with us. We found him in Seattle at my friend, Heather's, moms house just before Christmas 2000 and now he left us in Seattle, Christmas of 2006. I think there is something to that. So, we will miss him and the entire neighborhood in Eugene will miss him.

I will check in next year here and fill you in on our adventures in Barcelona. I hope everyone has a happy and relaxing and warm holiday and a festive New Year!
