Our First Baby...Sorta! Meet LuLu Grace

Well, Jason and I had our first baby...dog! We got a puppy about 2 and a half weeks ago from a breeder. She's a little teacup yorkshire terrier. We named her LuLu Grace. She's a tiny little thing; only weighed a pound when we got her. She's only a little bigger now and getting more and more sassy by the minute. Gotta love puppy attitudes! Sooo meet LuLu Grace...







She is so smart! Already pratically potty trained and listens pretty well (for a puppy lol). We took her for her first walk last weekend and she did GREAT! She was a bit shocked at first to see all the new things of the outside world but after she got over all that she went all the way down the street and around the block. We are such proud parents and love our little girl so much...

Pumpkin Patch 2010

Every year my family goes to the pumpkin patch together. I LOVE this tradition! It's so fun and really puts us all in the fall mood. This year was Jason's first year to go and he LOVED it too. Here are a few pictures from the event...

Katie was home from Tech from the weekend so she got to come too! YAY! I'm so happy she was able to go. It's really nice to have her home. We all missed her!
Jason riding the "horse" lol ; )


This little cow had tiny horns. I thought they were so CUTE! Gotta love the baby cows! Did I mention we got to meet them. Teehee!







Goats galore! This place is known for it's goats. They were all over the place. They eat straight from the little food cups too!


This cow was so stinkin cute! Loved it!





Longhorn and longhorn babies! They were very friendly and loved to be fed. They loved my mom!

Great picture of mom and dad!



Jason found the biggest pumpkin! It was HUGE and so heavy! How do people even take that thing home?! Woah...


Some of the pumpkins were way weird. Evil looking!

We will most definitely be back! Can't wait till next year!

Jax Attacks = Krazy Kitty

That picture basically sums EVERYTHING up. That was taken when she was a baby but she is still the same a year later. I got my mom Jax Attacks (very appropriatey named) for her birthday last year. Little did we know, that cute little bundle of fuzz was going to be KRAZY! And yes, I spell crazy with a K because that's just how KRAZY she is.
Today (like everyday) I went to my parents house for lunch. As I was making my lunch I tired to open a drawer but it was stuck. So I tugged on it some more and got it open enought to see that JAX WAS IN THE DRAWER! Please keep in mind that these are very shallow drawers.
How the heck did she get in there?!! Visions of our cat, Jake (rest of soul), flashed through my mind. When he was little he climbed into our cabinets in our house in Washington and got stuck. My dad had to smash a hole in the cabinet to get him out. He was tramautized since. I was not about to let that happen to Jax attacks. So I had to grab her little feet and drag her out. She was not happy with me after that! Apparently she liked being in the drawer...
But for real, how the heck did she get in there?! My mom says she didn't leave any of the doors open. We may never know the secrets of that little beast...
She's not crazy all the time though. Well actually come to think of it, she's only not crazy when she's sleeping. Enjoy that cuteness that is Jax Attacks...

Bats: The Latest Trend

Yes...you heard me. Bats will be the latest trend one day. Simply because they are SO CUTE! Everyone probably thinks I'm crazy now but for real they are way cute. I have proof.....
SEE! How precious is that?! It's like a little chihuahua with wings! I should make my own line of bat harnesses and clothes. People will be able to take there winged friend out for a...fly! Haha get it...a fly!

Ever since I was young, I've wanted to volunteer at a bat sanctuary but you have to get a rabies shot, so I never got around it. When Jason and I were on our nightly walk tonight we saw a bat box and it brought back all the memories. This lady came to my school (I think I was in 5th or 6th grade) and showed us some bats. I fell in love with them!

So I just thought I would share that with everyone. Bats aren't the evil blood sucking creatures everyone thinks they are....

First Day of Fall

It's fall! Finally! My favorite season! I am so ready for cooler weather! Plus my most favorite things are in the fall. I thought I would share a few...
Apple cider! Oh my goodness, how can you not love the amazingness that is apple cider?! SO GOOD! Gotta love it : )

Caramel apples! Even though they almost pull out your teeth, caramel apples are so yummy! They make me feel like a little kid again. Nothing is more fun that a good caramel apple!

Pumpkin pie! Enough said. Not to brag but I can make a pretty awesome pumpkin pie if I may say so myself! Kinda my specialty...

CANDY CORN/PUMPKINS! I am obsessed with candy corn and pumpkins. I eat it to the point that I get sick. It's really not healthy but I don't care! It's so WORTH it...

Halloween! Of course! Who doesn't like halloween?! I mean really? You have an excuse to dress up and eat a ton of candy! Score!

He's All I Need...

Sorry I have been an epic fail at keeping this thing updated. I need to do better! As you can see we've been pretty busy running errands and working.

I have something way more important to talk about than all that though. His name is Jason aka my wonderful husband. I am so blessed to have him, he is so good to me. There has been a lot of drama in our life lately. Some people may think it's newly wed drama/fighting with Jason blah blah blah. I want to assure everyone that is definitely not the case. Unfortunetley, a lot of people have been causing unnecessary and hurtful drama.

Whatever. None of it matters. If people want to be rude to us that is there choice and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it! I have come to this realization after many sleepless nights. It's definitely not worth losing sleep over. That's what they want and they are not gonna get it anymore.

"Friends" will come and go but family is forever. Jason is my forever. He is all that matters and all I need. He has been my saving grace through this whole terrible ordeal. Whenever I'm having a rough day or just flat out upset he is right there making me laugh and me cheering up. He knows exactly what to do and when to do it. I love him so much. "Friends" will let me down. Jason will not. He's there for me and always has my back.

Heavently father truley blessed me by bringing Jason into my life and I can't thank Him enough! I love you Jason....
