SNOW!

Well, I don't have photos of the snow....yet! But there is one happy little boy that is loving our cold weather! Of course it's Demon!! We have been hit with a bunch of cold weather and snow. Demon loves helping us get out the ice in his water bucket every morning so he can drag it around the yard and snack on it all day. We have also been taking him out for walks in the snow and he's loving running and playing around! I think I like the snow because it keeps him busy most of the day, other than constantly taking out the carpet in his crate he's been pretty good! I think that with the cold weather his furlongs are getting longer and longer each morning!

Brotherly Love

Our kitties Calvin (white) and Hobbes (orange) being good!














....And when they are up they have the look that says "TROUBLE"! Don't trust the innocent look :)!

Happy Birthday, Jordann!

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving holiday our family choose to enjoy the holiday without stress. We decided to not take a long trip down to our Grandparents house. We also made the meal smaller than some people probably would have liked. With a lot of us trying to watch what we are eating we did not feel it was necessary to have so many dishes, not to mention the clean up after. It was a nice relaxing dinner and dessert and everybody enjoyed the meal and did not have any complaints.....amazing! We were also able to get some photos done, something that we haven't done for probably 5 years. Yeah, we are bad!!!

Escape Artist

Sure, he may look cute but after what he's done this week it's been hard to see him as cute and adorable.

Our little escape artist dug a hole under the fence (again) removing two big cement blocks and digging his way underneath the fence. When I went out to go put the dirt back I realized that there were two blue eyes staring at me....on the wrong side of the fence. With him, he brought sticks and twigs from the other side. He went straight to his pen until his dad came home!

The next day he decided to jump on top of his pen into the neighbors yard. I was lucky I caught him before we left for a couple of hours. Again, he spent the remainder of the day in his pen. Last night we were out in the cold whether putting fences up to block every way which we know of he is getting out. I'm hoping that he will find something else to do rather than escaping every time somebody turns their back.

This morning when I went to let him out of his pen he was looking very closely at the fences. I'm sure he was trying to figure out a way to either jump over the fences or go under them. He is such a DEMON!

What's Been Going On.....

This week I am headed into my first round of finals: Foundations of Math A, U.S. Government A, and English 12 A. I also have a paper to write for English this week, which I'm not too thrilled about that! After that I will be starting the second round of Math, U.S. Government, and English.

Mom is back in school and student teaching, so Jordann and Whitney are home with me all day Tuesday's and Thursday's. That is always fun! Jordann is usually pretty quite, until she is done with school then she decides that being goofy is the best way to irritate me and she know that it works! Whitney likes to test my patients when we do her science....always looking at me for the answers. Her favorite saying is to come up to me and say "I'm bored." Of course if you mention dinner or chores both her and Jordann are a mile away!

Megan is FINALLY back in school. She had an extra month off from school and she thought it was pretty funny to annoy us. Now, the tables are turned and we are laughing at her because she is in school, too! She is currently majoring in becoming a history teacher.

Last Friday we took Demon to the park and let's just say I don't think he will be going any time soon! :) He decided to go for a swim in the pond and drag us through the park so he could see everything. Demon also thought the rose bushes at the park were his and I could tell he was trying to figure how to uproot them! We had to drive home with a wet dog and he wanted to sit on my lap! I tried to get him on Whitney's but neither of them were having any of it. And you would think that this outing would wear him out....ha! NOT! When he came home he was as wild as ever. I think that darn dog is ADD.

That Darn Dog

This week Demon decided to dig himself out of the yard so he could chase down the squirrel that has been teasing him in the tree behind the fence. We were lucky that somebody who recognized him came to the door. But who had to answer the door? Yeah, that was me.....nothing like being embarrassed when he just gives you the blues eyes and the look is saying "what?". So now I am dog sitting while doing my schoolwork. Fun!
