New Pictures of our Zoo

Honestly we do have a Zoo at our house,  you know it is bad when the animals out number the people that live there!  
Last night my sister came over and we took pictures of all of the kittens and the new puppies. We were able to get some pretty good pictures of them this time.  

We stayed up way too late just listening to them and watching them, who knew you could blow 2 hours just looking at something so small.

OHHH, would you like to see the proud Daddy of the puppies???  This is Tiger, the proud daddy.

First Day of Pre-School

Today was Kenzingtons first day of pre-school. She loves it. She ran out of the car and right into the classroom, she quickly said goodbye and was gone. Her teacher is awesome and Kenzington loves to learn. She is very excited that her friend is in her class again this year, but I think she is even more excited that this is her last year, and next year she gets to ride the bus with her big brother!

PUPPIES!!!!

They are here!!!! Bailey had her puppies this morning . . . this morning meaning 4AM!!!! I awoke to what sounded like a baby crying! I never knew that puppies sounded like that. I got out of bed and took the puppy to her whelping box (which is a kiddie swimming pool) and then got Bailey back in so that she could deliever the rest of them. She only had 5 puppies which is a pretty small litter and unforunatley 2 of them did not make it, so we only have 3. BUT they are so cute!!! She is a good little mommy and she is still trying to take care of the kittens when she hears them crying, like today when Kenzi and Korbin squished one between the bed and the wall . . . but that is a whole other subject! The pictures are not the best, Bailey isn't like the movie stars, she prefers not to have her babies posted to the world wide web just yet, but I will keep trying. :-)

Goodbye Summer

Labor Day always seems to be the final goodbye to summer. My favorite place to go every summer is Tony Grove. It is beautiful, and I have so many memories of the place. Some bad, like the time my oldest brother threw my Curious George book into the lake, or the other time when my brother and I ran into a moose 10 feet away; YIKES! The good ones though, those are what I remember the most. Sitting out by the campfire with my cousins or fishing with my grandpa, byt the spillway of course cause it is the best, or at least that is what he always told me . . . and he was right. There is a log up there that my grandma would always walk with me on. I can remember it so well. Yes Tony Grove has many memories so it seemed like the right place for me and my little family to go to over the weekend, even if it did rain.
