I Just noticed...

That all of cathi's titles end with ... :) just kidding sis! it's very cute the way you tie them in. Jordyn is absolutely adorable, and did you realize she always (as in the pics on the posts) smiles with her mouth closed? No toothy grins for that girl! Exactly the opposite of her big sissy, also I have one small request, a picture of patience from the front! I miss that little face!! I got my hair cut and colored yesterday, I am much new and improved, dave even said I looked like Meg Ryan! Even though he only meant my hair looked like Meg Ryan, it was sweet. All is well here, getting ready to go to work, and have a busy day of outside work planned for tomorrow. Sunday we are BBQing with the kids and their boy toys. Ben came over and made dinner last night in honor of he and kelsey dating for one month! He made spagetti and ceasar salad, I thought it was sweet, and way better than me cooking! He is now the new favorite boyfriend, especially since the other one's "driving" handicap! Just kidding, they're both nice boys!! All the puppies are adorable eyes open, and prancing around all important. We have just two left to sell, too bad Patience isn't in the market just yet, I have an adorable little puppy that looks just like a little panda bear!! Well I must go, I hear you can make your own laundry soap!

Hump day!

Well, it's wednesday, I have almost survived another week of school/work/life. Thanks to Lindsay and Ben (kelsey's boyfriend) I have only had to drive back & forth to whatcom 1 day this week! That is extremely helpful, as it frees up a lot of time. Other than school work and day to day "stuff" not much else going on here. I can't believe my nephew is 17 yrs old either. Where does the time go? Pretty soon he will be graduated and moving on to ?...I wish my sister would post pics of the new tv room, I hear it's yellow! We have sold another puppy Yeah!! now we just have 2 left, one boy and one girl. Their eyes have started to open so they can see where they are dragging themselves around. They should start getting a little more active and then they will move to their "new" playpen. We have been grateful for the weather, it has been nice to be able to keep up on the outside stuff. And for added fun dave and I put up an awning of sorts on the back patio. It has a top and one side to keep the wind, rain, snow or sun off the porch, and provides a dry place for the dog houses and the dogs. Since it is bolted to the concrete, we are hoping the wind does not set it on the roof! Everyone else is doing well, not much else to report. I hope mom & lee are having the most wonderful time in Hawaii!

Ok, Ok I will fill you in...

Well, with the exception of my sister, who gets tired of waiting and finally just calls me...no one has been updated for a while. Pretty much everyone knows about lindsay's car accident by now. She is doing much better by the way, healing nicely and had the staples removed from her head. Kelsey and I started school at Whatcom last monday. The week was intense for both of us, I did a lot of driving back and forth as our classes are not on the same schedule at all! We haven't been able to find a time to get her in to the D.O.L to get her license, even though it would free me up immensely! She is really enjoying being in college, as am I. I have two tough classes this quarter and one easy class, art 112, or beginning drawing. I am pretty sure I am the worst one in the class, but the teacher is quite encouraging, hopefully things will improve! My hard classes are Psych 110, and IDS 112, which is a cognitive reasoning class, the LAST form of math class I will have to take the rest of my school career! Anyway, Kelsey has Mono, again, we thought it was strep, again, but we were wrong. She has been asleep most of the weekend, but managed to work on some spanish yesterday. Cody and Hailey are doing well. Cody called me friday to let me know he got his BTZ promotion, over a year early! He was very happy, and we are very proud of him. This puts him higher in rank, and results in more pay, which is always handy! He is still scheduled to be deployed mid-december to somewhere in Africa. We will certainly have a big party when he gets to come back home in April sometime. Well I am going to go get ready for school, and my long week!

A new Day

Well, the day (friday) is almost over. The puppies got their tails done today, Lindsay took a shower! while that may not seem like a big deal, it's a lot harder to do with one arm. Kelsey and Hailey both had lessons today, and I did a few errands, some laundry and cleaned the barn.It's weird not getting ready to go work tonite, but I could get used to it. Dave caught a little trout at the river today, too small to keep, but for some unexplainable reason it seems to make him so happy?! I wish I had more interesting things to tell anyone, but I just don't. Lindsay's new beau has been hanging out here after work to keep lindsay company. He is a nice guy, polite and well groomed :) One minor glitch in the driving competence area, but I guess you can't have it all! Tomorrow is another day so maybe we'll try again

puppies!!

well, at long last the puppies are here! It was a long day, but Kady did great and we ended up with 2 girls and 3 boys. not too bad! better than one girl...Hailey hasn't seen them yet, as she went home with a friend after school, but lindsay, kesley and dave think they are adorable, and of course they are. That was pretty much all I did today, tomorrow will undoubtedly be much more productive!

Okay, Val, here's your title field!

Hi Val, somehow the "title field" got disabled! Obviously my fault since I was the only one on your blog!
