A trip to Ohio.....

We decided to come out to Ohio for a few days and of COURSE had to make a stop at the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It is no secret that our family is made up of huge football fans!! We had such a good time!!! My uncle Bill is here with Mitchell in this picture.

This is a picture of Haali with her boyfriend Tyler. He came with us for this trip and enjoyed the Hall of Fame very much! He is an amazing football player and of course they are both in their Giants wear as well as Mitchell in his Cowboys gear!!! Such a photogenic group of people makes an obsessed picture taker like myself a very easy job!!! We are so glad that we could make it out!!!

Surprise!!!

My sweet husband is so very special to me!! Most of you know that he is currently deployed in Iraq. I had a wonderful surprise when I got the mail a few days ago. He had sent me this ornament from Lenox. It has our names on it and it reads, "Always Together" on the bottom! I just love it!!! We stopped getting each other gifts about five years ago and exchange ornaments instead. How thoughtful of him to have it sent all the way from Iraq!! I love him so very much and am thankful for such an amazing husband!

MEET JACK~!!!!

Hello everyone!!! Well we picked Jack up today and he is just adorable!!! But you can judge for yourself! He weighed 6lb. 9 oz. at his appointment yesterday. He is 6 weeks old and just so sweet! His disposition is wonderful! The other animals are all getting along with him very well, so that is a blessing as well! Isn't he so cute! We love him so much already! He is going to be such a great addition to the family!

Pixie growing up.....

Hello everyone!! I just thought I would go back through my old pictures and post some pics of Pixie. For those of you who aren't familiar with the story, we went to Hawaai prior to my husband deploying and while Jazzy was being boarded she got very pregnant!! We were not expecting it but the puppies were born on Father's Day. She had six puppies. Two of them died at birth and sadly one was involved in an accident and has died since. So, there are three left and all of them are with friends. They all look extremely different as well! I am going to work on getting pictures of the others to post.

This is a picture of Pixie the day that her owners picked her up! She is such a cutie and we have loved her from the moment she was born!! Her color has changed slightly as she has gotten a bit bigger.
This is a picture of her at a few weeks old. She is so tiny and adorable! Look at her tiny paws!!!

And this is sweet Pixie sleeping at one week old. Isn't she precious!!! Who would have guessed she had all that hair from this picture??? :)

Pixie is doing great and having a blast hanging out with her Mommy! They had no issues adapting to one another and every once in a while Pixie tries to eat from Jazzy again. Needless to say, Jazzy is NOT interested in that!! :) What a cutie she is!! We are hoping to have a reunion sometime in the near future for all of the puppies with the mommy! :)

A special visit......

Ok, I am sure that most of you remember when Jazzy had her puppies on Fathers Day...... Well, this adorable puppy on the left is Pixie....the little black puppy that Jazzy had!!! Yep, that is her! My friend went away for the holidays and left her puppy with us. She is much bigger than Jazzy but they are getting along famously!!!

Movie night

Well, seeing as how it is only a little over a week from Christmas and I am stilllll not done with presents, I decided to watch a few movies and eat some popcorn last night. We watched Polar Express and had some cheesy popcorn! Yum!!! I have so many projects that I would like to finish and have such a late start that I am not sure if I will finish them all. We are doing very well considering that this our first Christmas without my DH. He will be home in a few months for some R&R though so we are really looking forward to that!!! He is so amazing that he does a great job of being here even though he is not physically by our side. What can I say,?? We are very blessed.

Thank you for all your kind comments!! Jack will be coming home with us on Friday and we are very excited!!! He will be taking his first road trip this month as well!! Jazzy is doing very well and we are hoping that our pets will be very accepting of this sweet bundle of joy that we are adding to our family!

Hello again.....

Hi everyone! I know I have been missing for quite some time and wanted to stop in and give a quick update. We are all doing well, just trying to keep everything going while my DH is gone. I have good news to share though. We will have a new fuzzy addition to our family next week. I have put a picture of our dear Jack on this post. ..... He is absolutely adorable!!! He is a golden retriever puppy and comes home next Friday!! I hope all is well with each of you!!!
