Garfield joins the Portier's

After the loss of our precious Oscar, we decided we needed to allow another kitty into our lives to love on.  We adopted Oscar from the humane society, and we decided to do the same again here in Houston. 

We went for a visit and fell in love with an orange tabby named Garfield.  He was crawling all over us from the moment we met him.  We knew that this spunky kitty belonged with us.  Almost a week later we were bringing him home, the newest member of the Portier family.

The Lord gives and the Lord takes away...

Our beloved cat Oscar was taken away from us today.  Victim of a tragic accident we found him a day after he went missing.  He wasn’t just a cat, but a furry member of the family who will always have a place in our heart.  

Meredith and Tom

A joyous day for all at the Haak Winery in Santa Fe, TX where Tom Hackney and Meredith Hobbs were joined in marriage.  John along with his brother and cousins were ushers at the wedding, and Johns mother Bonnie was the Matron of Honor.  It was a gorgeous, but simple wedding.  We saw family members from long and far and even some we didn’t know we had.  Meredith looked so beautiful, and the stars at night were big and bright deep in the heart of Texas.
