Another Puppy Post

The weeks have been passing and we've been watching the girls grow and get bigger and develope little doggy personalities. A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!! Finally the decision of which pup was going to which perspective owner has been made. My parents are getting Bessie and have decided to keep the name as well. So Bessie will be my new "sister" :? of sorts. She was the biggest of the litter and is still the largest. She's very self assured, the alpha dog in the group and loves to have her tummy rubbed. A couple more weeks and she'll be coming home.

5yrs later... we bowled

For our friend's birthday we went bowling. We were actually both really looking forward to this night because we've been talking about going bowling ever since we started dating nearly 5 years ago. The years have come and gone, we've gotten married and are quickly approaching our 2yr wedding anniversary, and we still hadn't made it to the bowling alley. Saturday night we went bowling!!! We were pretty aweful, but it was a lot of fun. Thanks Alison for finally getting us out of the house and to the bowling alley.

Love Thy Neighbor

Umm NOT so much right now. I woke up to a plumber at the door asking if there was water flooding our bathroom/laundry area. I double checked and nothing.... yet.

It turned out our neighbor (who we heard loudly leaving very early this morning for, presumably a business trip, updated: trip to Hawaii..... as she does quite frequently) had an overflowing toilet that was flooding our other neighbors. They stopped the water for the entire building until the could figure out how to ascertain entry into her place.

Kyle stopped by during his break at work and noticed it looked like it might be starting to seep through the wall. By the time he got home it was more clearly seeping through and he called the community home owners association and got on the list of units for the restoration management company to visit.

So the baseboards are off, there are holes in the walls and dehumidifiers running. It looks like the flooring downstairs will have to be replaced. It's been one crazy day.

Even in Roatan, Honduras

 

Yup it's an obsession. This one my husband found hillarious.... I'm not sure I was entirely in on the joke, but hey another plastic palace to add to my growing collection and I'm game. It turns out there are port 'o potties all over the world... well at least in Honduras in addition to the USA.

Too Cute

A few years ago our family dog, a sheltie named buddy, passed away. She had been such the perfect pet that my parents just couldn't bring themselves to replace her. A few years have since passed and the time finally seemed right. They wanted a dog that didn't need quite as much activity as the Shetland Sheepdog did. They've settled in on the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Here's the litter that contains the new addition to the family.
