Today is Joshua's 3rd Birthday!

Today is my sweet baby's 3rd birthday. Guess I have to stop calling him baby huh. We got him a bike, but he has yet to figure out how to peddle it hehe.

This first video is the family singing to him. The second one is a birthday solo. The last part gets soft, so turn up your sound.

August CT assignment

Well, Purple Paper Flower is closing . .I was so bummed out because I'd only been on the CT for 1 month. But, then the CT manager offered the CT members a position at Get Digi With It and I jumped at the chance. There are several of the same designers selling at GDWI. Anyway, here are my first 2 layouts for August using Hold it Together by Little Mrs. Liz.

Midnight

Here is a pictures of Chuck with his dog. You can see a little better how big she is already at 15 weeks old. EDITED: Oh my I just noticed that the angle I took this picture it looks like my husband's head it hitting the ceiling. I assure you it is NOT hitting the ceiling and is actually well below it. . .Our ceilings are vaulted and I think that probably has a big somthing to do with it hehe.

My Anniversary

Today is my wedding anniversary. Chuck and I have been married 15 years. For our anniversary he surprised me with this pretty fountain, a herb kit, an apple spice candle and three 3 Musketeer Bars! I told him to count the dog and the dog's crate as his present, well, and the frozen yogurt I treated him to yesterday hehe.

Puppy Luv

Everyone seems to be adjusting well to our new baby. She is no longer jumping up on Joshua, which is a very good thing, although, now Joshua feels like he can chase her around the house with his popper toy, scarying her to death! Still no accidents, yippeeee!

She did ruin Stacia's dress yesterday. The movement of our dresses we had on for church drove her crazy . .as in "I have to catch that thing!" She ended up putting 4 holes in one of Stacia's favorite dresses grrrr. We learned though that we have to be extra careful right now with our clothes.

Oh, and BTW, I bought a new vacuum last week and I'm loving it. My house is feeling so much cleaner. I know it's picking up way more stuff than my last vacuum! I've had to clean the filters 3 times in 1 week. . . so much dust/dirt/fur/hair in my carpets. When you walk across the carpet it even feels soft now!

Our new addition . . .

Well, here's our new baby. She is Mastiff/Rottweiler. She is a bit hyper, but we expect her to calm down as she gets use to her new surroundings. She's been here 13 hours and so far, no accidents in the house! Chuck had to take her outside at 1:00 am and then she was whinning to go out again at 6:00 am. She did pretty good in her crate last night. She didn't like it at first, but we turned on some static noise and it calmed her down and she was quiet until 1:00 am and then was quiet again until 6:00 am. She is very playful and keeps trying to get Fluffy to play with her, but Fluffy wants no part of it (she's 9, and would rather just lay around most of the time).

We named her Midnight.

Wow - It's been awhile

I didn't realize it had been so long since I blogged. So, a little update on us.

We've been hunting for a new dog. Chuck has been itching for a large dog and we have maybe found one. He is out looking at it right now. It's a Mastiff/Rottweiler mix. She's 14 weeks old. So, we'll see if he comes home with her tomorrow from being up in SLC for the farmer's market.

Speaking of the Farmer's Market. Chuck has had really good sales this year. We are hoping we have enough product to get us through the end of September.

We have been having rain every afternoon the past several days. It's nice to have the cooler weather and I haven't had to water the lawn all week. That's the best part about rain. We have flash flood warnings again today. Fortunately our house isn't in the path of any flooding, although the houses across the street have a big wash. The first part of July we had flash flooding and the wash looked like a raging river!

Last of all . . . only 9 days until Joshua turns 3 (can't believe it) and only 11 days until school starts! Whooo hooo!
