Dog Gone Lazy!

Okay, so everyone who knows us well knows that our dogs are part of our family. I often refer to them as my girls or as PJ's sisters. Stupid I know, but we just love our dogs. Presley is so sweet and she has had to overcome so many tough times in her life. She scares most people because she is really protective of us... our guard dog. It's only a disguise. All you have to do is talk to her and she will simmer down and lick ya. Furgy isn't even a year old yet and she is so smart and sweet. If the door is cracked one bit Furgy will sneak in. Last week after playing in the barn she snuck in and PJ yelled, "Mom, there is like a huge mess of dirt and sand in my bed. We had to wash the bedding right away. That little rascal Furgy. They both love being cuddled and loved and believe me they get it. They are also quite the cow dogs.

Anyways, I took these pictures this summer because they just crack me up. These girls really do have a hard life... Can't you tell... They make the term "Dog Gone Lazy" literal.

Lagoon and Zoo time!

We finally made a trip to take the kids to Lagoon and the zoo. We went with the Deets family. They always make our trips fun. We have been spending tons of time with them this summer. Our kids play so well. The boys were very brave and went on all of the scary rides with us. PJ is just barely tall enough to ride them all, and was a trooper. It was soooo hot and busy at Lagoon but we had a fun time. The zoo was perfect. PJ said his favorite ride at Lagoon was the pirate ship (Tidal Wave) and his favorite thing to see at the zoo was the monkeys.... imagine that... my little monkey. Well we ALL made it home, they didn't keep any of us at the zoo so I think we had a successful trip! :)

Catching Up!!

I am a huge slacker on this blogging thing. We are sure enjoying our summer. We have been running around like crazy and have been staying up too late and sleeping in!! Only a short amount of time until I have to start going back to work. School starts on the 25th.

Payton went with his Grandma to California for 2 weeks and my life changed a bit while he was gone. He is back and I am happy. It gets lonely without my little buddy.

Here are some random pictures I haven't posted yet...

I was looking for PJ and looked out the front door to see this...


We sure love our dogs. Presley is a sweetie. She is like a big pillow. She will also lay down and give me a foot rest at times.


Aunt Jessi was in town for a few days. She is way better at building forts than I am. Of course she makes the mess and then leaves. Oh, well...




What is it with the sleepovers? This is a change for me. My baby is now a boy and he is getting bigger and older. It is fun but definetly a change!
