Whoa!

Jade was staying at my house last weekend and one day she walked through our front door looking like this? What? Apparently she was the welcoming committee for a local schools 1st day back to school. Her friends family has all these great homemade clown costumes so the school hired them for the kids. Doesn't she look cute! I made her pose for the camera! Anyway if you need any clowns for hire give Jade a call!

What? I didn't do it! It was Leyla!

        Just another day in the life of owning a puppy! Gotta love having a white trash back yard.

Dog Rumors

So lets set the record straight. We have not added a new dog to our family but we are thinking about it. Nick and I have jokingly talked about getting another dog so Leyla has a friend when we are not around. I get into phases where I start looking at adds in the newspapers or internet for Boxers for sale. Of course boxers are show dogs and can get pretty expensive so I've just been looking. The more I've seen and read I noticed typically every litter can produce a white boxer which a lot consider unacceptable because they can't show them. Instantly that tugged at my heart how could you not love this little animal because he doesn't have the right coloring. So now I've been talking about getting a cute little white boxer because everyone else gives them up and I would love him/her to bits! Well this has been going on for awhile and well the other day I get a text message from Mike O saying he has found me a white baby boxer that I can have for free!!! Great! Now what am I supposed to do! Ha! Well currently the boxers are just a little over a week old so I don't have him/her yet but maybe I 'll go meet them and if it works out we may have a new addition. Once again I've written a long blog about my dog. Well just look at the pictures they are soooooo cute!!!! I can't resist their faces and fun personalities. 

Golfer Girls and Nick!

Saturday date Night with Nick ! Is it ever going to warm up??? I'm so sick of the Cold!

Back In The Day's of 89'

So my dad sent an email to me the other day titled The Beginning of Coolness with this picture enclosed. This is my little sister Shea, she is 5 years old and is wearing my dads aviator sunglasses and of course is posing for the camera. She is currently living in Hollywood, CA (how fitting) and yes, still wears the aviator glasses she dubbed back in 89'. 

These next pictures followed in another e-mail a few days later.
Of Course I wanted to be cool too! So here are my pictures from the same day. I am 10 years old. Funny thing, I totally remember those shorts and they actually have dinosaurs on them and I loved them! Forget the glasses I think the shorts are hot!

If any of you were wondering where this photo shoot took place it is at the infamous Sherwood Hills Golf Course. This picture includes my old friend Angela Croft, Me, Shea, and then my other little sister Jade. Jade definitely takes the one piece to a whole other level! 

Sheababee!

Shea was in town this weekend; she threw a baby shower for her good friend Jen Parry.  After the shower we all met Nick at the Country club.  Nate Parry invited Nick to play golf while we girls did the baby shower thing.  Here is a picture of Shea and Nick! They are so cute! We love you Shea! Wish you lived closer!

New Baby!

My cousin Mercedi had a baby boy last Thursday so this past weekend my mom, Jade, and I packed up the car and headed to Vegas to meet him.  It was really fun we kind of just flew by the seat of our pants. We had no reservations, it was Memorial Day weekend, and our family had no idea we were coming. We left early Saturday morning and drove all the way to the hospital to see them. We had  a lot of fun and their baby boy is sooooo adorable and healthy. Jade currently has all the pictures we took so as soon as she e-mails them to me I will post them. The photo below I stole from his parents blog but it is sure cute.  Here he is......

My Baby Girl!

This is MY baby girl!! She never leaves my side, literally she is always under foot. This is a picture of her chillin on the lawn watching me plant flowers. She has the funniest personality and is one of my best friends. This is really quite amazing for me. I have never been a real animal lover. Anytime I would be around someone else's dogs or animals I didn't want to pet them and I thought they were all stinky shedding and I just wasn't a fan. Then Leyla came to live with us. As you all know Mike O. bought and raised her from just a pup. He ended up having to move into an apartment that wouldn't allow animals so instead of selling her we decided she could come live with us. We had just bought our house and had a nice yard for her. When she first moved in I had all these rules like she is not allowed in the our bedroom, on the couch, and she gets to sleep in her kennel. Well needless to say she had other plans. She no longer sleeps in her kennel but loves the corner of the couch. She sleeps on her doggie bed until we go to bed and then she 's on the couch. She also loves to sleep under our bed when yes, we let her into our bedroom. She will crawl under the bed and shimmy up right under our heads to be as close to us as possible. To my husbands dismay when I come home from work and he's already up I make Leyla come and snuggle with me in bed. We take naps together all the time, and she is my buddy when Nick is out of town. Yes me, non animal lover, now lets my stinky hair dog sleep next to me in bed. No worries, I am constantly washing our bed linens but I can't resist her puppy face and kisses. We had a real scare the other day. She was acting really weird, totally not herself and she wouldn't eat any food or treats, and was walking really funny. So I turned into a paranoid mother. I actually got my stethoscope out and listened to her heart and bowel sounds....We made an appointment for her with the vet for the next day and just kept an eye on her through out the night. Fortunately the next day she was back to her cheery self. I think she just had an upset stomach. Anyway I know this is way more than you all wanted to know about my dog but there you have it. I have turned into an animal lover and yes no longer think those who treat their dogs like their kids are ridiculous because I am now the worst offender. Interesting how people can change!

More Puppy Pic's

I know I look a little scary in this photo. Nick and I just got done playing golf and I was getting ready to represent for the Jazz game, hence my crazy outfit. I thought this was such a good shot of the puppy so I'm sacrificing my looks so you can see her.

New Family Member

This is a video of Jade's new puppy a tea cup yorkie. She can't decide on a name the list so far is, Coco,  Penelope, Olive,  Kitty,  Abby,  Katie,  Maggie....If anyone has any suggestions please feel free. Isn't she sooo cute. She currently is 12 weeks old and won't really get any bigger.  She stayed at our house all day yesterday. Layla was so concerned with her and kept checking on her it was so funny. 

Jaysa and The Boys!

Now we can't forget Jaysa. How cute are these three! She definitely has her uncle's wrapped around her finger's. These boys need to dress up more they sure look handsome! Oh on that note Ashlee told me a few weeks ago Jaysa asked her if Nick was always going to be bald. Ashlee said, "Yes probably, why?" Then Jaysa told her she had seen an ad on TV for stuff that would help him grow his hair back. She was really excited and wanted Nick to know about it so he wouldn't have to be bald anymore! How smart and funny is that little cookie!

Karra Cooking!
