My Halloween Pups

Just some cute pics...more to come soon.

In the last 16 days...

...Buddie graduated from puppy classes with honors on the 15th!
...we have celebrated Randy's 32nd Birthday on the 15th.
...celebrated our friends son Dylan's birthday on the 16th.
...I decorated for Christmas on the 18th.
...On the 19th Buddie took his first trip as a therapy dog to the nursing home in town and loved it! (I tagged along)
...my friend Elizabeth (roommate from Ft Hood), her daughter Sami, and my new friend Michelle visited from the 20th-23rd. I miss her and we had so much fun!
...I got really sick from the 21st-26th...ughhh. I even had to go to the ER because my heart did not like the meds they put me on, I am okay though, just a very high heart rate for a few days. I think Baylee knew I wasn't feeling well the day I went to the ER, she just kept laying on me and sitting on my lap, I guess I should have paid closer attention to what she was doing since she usually only sits on Randy's lap.
...I made a Thanksgiving feast for 2, turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing from a box, corn, rolls, pumpkin pie for Randy, and Chocolate pie for me.
...We saw a couple of movies; Twilight and Bolt (The hamster was hilarious!)
...We got Phoebee a cat climber thingy on Black Friday and some new dog toys, somehow they are destroying their old ones.
...We bought some new video games and played video games all weekend, so much fun!
...I groomed Buddie yesterday and Randy went skeet shooting for the first time.
...Buddie went for his 2nd trip to the nursing home today, the 1st of December. He loves the attention and is so good for everybody when they pet him. He isn't scared of anything and makes the residents smile, even if they don't want to pet him. I think we will be doing this for a long time. He even had one personal request for next time from a sweet lady named Maybel.
...We did the same stuff we normally do also; Randy worked, I cleaned, we talked to our friends and family, and we played with our animals.

We wish you all a wonderful Holiday season! Happy December 1st! I get to open my advent calendar today and eat the chocolate out of it!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Everybody! We are all doing well and enjoying the Fall here in Alabama. We have gone through a corn maze and Randy picked out his very own pumpkin. This blog entry has a lot of pictures...so hang in there.

It was his first time ever carving a pumpkin! He did a great job!

I then tried to take some Halloween pictures. Which as you will see, were a little more difficult than I anticipated.

We also went to a Howl-o-ween party at Petsmart last week. The dogs got treats, had a parade, and had a costume contest. They did not win but I think they were great

Last Saturday, Buddie, Baylee, and I went to a fundraiser for one of the animal shelters here in Enterprise. They had some contests and both dogs got lots of ribbons. Buddie got first place for best trick in the small mutt category! What a performer! Baylee got first place in the tiny mutt catergory for jumping! She jumped over one of those white pvc pipes they use in agility competitions (it was about 4 inches off the ground) but we are so very proud of her. Buddie also got 1st place for: Shortest small Mutt and Hairiest small Mutt. Baylee also got 1st place for: Shortest tiny Mutt

Last but not least, the pictures from Halloween night. They were so good even with the doorbell ringing. They didn't even try to dart out the door. I do have to say that their costumes were better than some of the ones that I saw come to my door. Also, I think that My animals must have been possessed last night, their eyes were glowing in almost every picture!

We hope you all enjoyed the pictures and catching up on what has been going on in our lives over the past few weeks. Have a wonderful holiday season!

Before I was a dog Mom

I got this from another dog website, thought you would enjoy it:)

Before I was a Dog Mom:I made and ate hot meals unmolested.I had unstained, unfurred clothes.I had quiet conversations on the phone,even if the doorbell rang.

Before I was a Dog Mom:I slept as late as I wantedand never worried about how late I got to bedor if I could get into my bed.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I cleaned my house every day.I never tripped over toys, stuffies, chewiesor invited the neighbor's dog over to play.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I didn't worry if my plants, cleansers,plastic bags, toilet paper, soap or deodorantwere poisonous or dangerous.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I had never been peed on,pooped on, drooled on,chewed on or pinched by puppy teeth.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I had complete control of my thoughts,my body and mind.I slept all night without sharing the covers or pillow.

Before I was a Dog Mom:I never looked into big, soulful eyes and cried.I never felt my heart break into a million pieceswhen I couldn't stop a hurt.I never knew something so furry and four-legged could affect my heart so deeply.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I had never held a sleeping puppyjust because I couldn't put it down.I had never gotten up in the middle of the nightevery 10 minutes to make sure all was well.I didn't know how warm it feels insideto feed a hungry puppy.I didn't know that something so smallcould make me feel so important.
Before I was a Dog Mom:I had never known the warmth, the joy,the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being A Dog Mom.

Happy Mom's Day...Are you doing anything special with your pups today?

New Apartment Pics, Halloween, and Herbs

Hey Everybody, so here are the long awaited furnished apartment pictures. I also got a few Halloween/Fall decorations to make the place a little more like home. I have also decided that I am going to grow a few herbs instead of more flowers...they are more functional plus my Cinnamon Basil has grown tremendously since I got it a month ago. I added some pictures of some plants that are outside my gate and a shot coming towards our house. Hope all is well with everybody!!! I will put some more pictures up soon and maybe a video of the area.
