Our newest addition.....

IT'S A GIRL!!
NO...I didn't have a baby...
Ok, so we don't have her yet, but we only have a couple more weeks until we do! Our German Shepherd was born on August 4 and she is growing like a weed! I got to see them when they were 2 days old and just looked like cute little rats. The pictures are from 2 weeks old when they were just barely opening their eyes. They doubled in size in that two weeks and got lots of color! Nick and I took our nieces Dominique and Gabby to see them. Gabs absolutely loved the one she was holding until it pooped on her... then she wanted nothing to do with it. They're still cute no matter what. :) We're still trying to fugure out a name...any suggestions??

Dani Wani


As of this morning our family dog of 12 years was put to sleep. She had been suffering for a while with heart failure and having trouble breathing. It was time to go to a better place where she wouldn't have to be in so much pain. Dani was a wonderful dog who was by my side all through growing up in my high school years. I taught her every trick she knew... My favorite was "READY?" and she'd bark right back at you. :) Last night I had a dream I was just spending time with her and playing around. Little did I know she had been having a hard time all night long. I am grateful for that little chance I had left. Dani will be greatly missed by our family.

HOME sweet HOME!!


Well, it certainly has been a while since our last post. Its been hard to keep up with things since we had our apartment broken into and computers stolen, but we're moving along.
We finally ended the long, tiring search for our first home. Here it is! We moved in the last weekend in June. We love our house more and more every day. I look forward to getting in and decorating and really making it my place. It definately is a big change going from a small apartment to a 2200 sq ft house. It feels like our own mansion! The front yard isn't very big, but thats Vegas for ya. Our back yard really brings out the desert...dirt and rocks...so if you have any ideas for us, we'd love to see them. :) Inside we have a big kitchen, living room and bathroom downstairs and upstairs we have the exquisite master with 2 other bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a loft. We also LOVE having visitors!!
