Happy Birthday

Today is Whitney's birthday! She is now 10 years old!! Jordann has been teasing her lately that she is now a decade old! Today she is spending her day doing art with mom and annoying me constantly! I wish I had her energy level that she has today :). Over the weekend we celebrated her birthday by going to the hockey game. I'm sure that she was happy that her team won 7-1!

I can remember 10 years ago coming home from school and my grandma was taking care of Jordann and Megan and I found out that Whitney was born. I remember thinking that she was really quite....now it's all I can do to get her to be quite for 2 seconds!

Happy birthday Whit!

Mom is planning on doing her hair and getting some nice pictures....I'll see if we actually get one that is worth posting as she still hasn't learned how to smile for the camera.

3 Weeks Left

I am finally on the homestretch to completing High School! I have three weeks of school and two finals and then I will be done! My final two classes are Economics and Speech. My plan for college is to go to a community college and become a pastry chef. I'm really excited that I will be done with school before Spring Break!!!

Whitney isn't too thrilled with me finishing school because that will give me more time to check in with her and make sure she is doing all the required course work.

Leave the Birds Alone

As I'm sitting at the computer trying to finish up my Economics assignment I hear Demon talking like crazy. First I think it's because Snitch doesn't want to play with him so I go check on him, of course playing with him is no fun because he can't stand to lose. What do I find? I find him going after the birds in the bird feeder and then after they leave he is howling at them in the sky. I think this dog is just plain crazy!

When I tell him to go find his ball he decides that he's going to tell me his part of the story, of course I think I know what's been going on after observing him for a minute! After giving him some undivided attention (sorry Snitch) my hope is he will leave them alone. I should have figured he would find something even more annoying to do. So now he is sitting right by the bird feeder just waiting to pounce so that he can get one. I'm hoping this puppy stage will end....and soon!

At least on the bright side: I'm not having to chase him down and find him! Yes, he is still escaping the yard to keep us on our toes.

You're Not Helping

With Mom back in school it has been my duty to get Whitney out of bed before noon so she can get started on her school work. My brilliant plan last week to wake up Whitney was to bring in her kitty, Calvin. After about 20 minutes I went to check on how he was doing and I found this:
















Calvin is now fired from the job! I guess it's back to opening the curtains and turning on the lights until I find a better plan.

Snow Pics

Some of the pictures I took during our few days of snow:

Who in the world????

Who in the world would??? I do not know what type of creature in the world would do something like this besides somebody VERY disturbed















Don't let those eyes fool you.....he is more of a tiger than a cat these days!
