One month!!

What a great time of the year! In exactly one month, I marry my very best friend! I can't wait! We're going to have such a great time in Mexico and on our honeymoon! I will definitely post pictures!

You know, I've done lots of reflection during the past few weeks and although I always knew that God had my plan all figured out, now I can really see now that this was what he had planned for US since before we were born. I am so blessed, simple as that. Think of all the adventures that lie ahead!!! Bring 'em on! :)

While we prepare, please pray for us to have safe travels, an awesome wedding, but mostly for a long and happy marriage!

Love you guys!

Herbie's 4th Birthday

My pretty kitty cat turned 4 on May 1 and although he didn't get to have a party because of bad behavior (he pees in our duffel bags when they're left open), he still got a lot of extra lovin' on his big day. Here's a picture of the fluffy guy.

Dakota Days

This is Dakota, Trudy's best friend. She's a beautiful Catahoula Leopard Dog, and she belongs to our friends, Mo and Adam... fellow Skiatookians. Trudy and Dakota are about the same age, so they puppy around all over the place. (Yes, in our house, "puppy" is very much a verb.) They're so much fun! Adam will bring Dakota over before work on nice days and leave her in Trudy's outside pen. They puppy all day, and by the time we get home, Crazy Dog Bitey Pants Trudy turns into Nice Puppy Cuddly Trudy and we get a glimpse into the world of what it's like to own a grown-up bassett hound (so I hear).

It is so nice to have friends that live so close... makes puppy day care so much less expensive!! :) Now all we need is a little sunshine to dry out that puppy pen so Dakota can come puppy some more over at Trudy's place. Man, we miss the sun... :)
