Dog Gone Bad

Well, Travis and Cameron were about 2 miles away from picking up "PEPSI" when they recieved a phone call from the owner stating that the dog was pregnant. Okay, so I had to draw the line. Not only was she pregnant, but pregnant with muts & I was already having a rough time taking in 1 dog let alone 6-9 dogs. Travis broke the news to Cameron and he was devastated (along with his dad). After seeing how upset the were, I knew despite my dog fears we had to find a dog. So, we have been looking all day and Cameron continues to ask if we have found one yet. What an adventure!!

A DOG

I can't believe it, but my husband and son are currently on their way to get a chocolate lab. My son has already name it "PEPSI." ( I prefer Mountain Dew) I was raised with dogs, but truly never wanted one. I am really having mixed feelings. I spent a lot of money on my new yard and the hygiene of a dog just makes me cringe. On the other hand, it is a great thing for my husband and son and they are so excited. It's already almost 2, so we are out of the puppy stages. All I can say is there is going to be a lot of adjusting for me and a lot of responsibility for my son and husband. Any words of advice would be appreciated. Stay tune for some pictures.

Happy Anniversary


I have to say I am pretty excited for our 10 yr because we finally our going on a vacation. We booked a trip to Mexico just outside of Cancun. I am nervous to leave my kids, but know they will be in good hands. It has been a while since Travis and I have just focused on each other. With kids and work I have found that it is all to easy to put your relationship on hold. It will be a good trip, but I will be excited to get back and squeeze my kids (not to mention get off the plane).
Somedays I feel like I have been married for a lot longer than 10yrs and other days I am still trying to get it all figured out. Despite some rocky roads, I am very grateful for the man I have married. He is a wonderful father and a great husband. There are so many things I have learned over the last 10 yrs. Without the experiences I have had in my marriage; I would have never had the opportunity to grow and for this I am grateful. I look forward to a lot more years of tears, laughter, & memories that will help me continue to learn how to love. Thank you Travis for everything.

Chasing after Brinley

This is one place I can always find our little Angel!!



As if there wasn't enough on the floor; she opens more


Done with the drawer, I 'll try the cabinet


Oh boy, I was caught in the hallway this time.


Our sweet little Brinley keeps me running all day long. By the time I pick up one mess, she is to the next room making another. Despite the craziness-you gotta love her. (Apologize for the date on the photos, my camera was set wrong).
