Granny opening presents!

We had a birthday party on Sunday for Eric, Lynsey, Cami, Grandma, and me. It was so fun and there was a great variety of birthday cakes. I just wanted to give you an idea of how many birthdays are in August. Starting from the beginning to the end of August their is my brother in law Eric, my friend Cassi, my friend Harmoni, my sister in law Lara, my sister Lynsey, my grandma Davis, my cousin Cami, my nephews Elijah and Isaiah, my friend Cami, my cousin Bill, my second cousin Keanan, mine, and my husbands grandma Morrissey. Wow! Now that's a lot of birthday's. Happy Birthday August babies. Hopefully, I did not miss anyone but if I did Happy Birthday to you!

Memories!

So, I love blogging now and I love exploring other peoples blogs. Yea I know kind of weird but anyways I found this idea on Kari Stock's blog and totally thought it was cool. So thanks Kari for the great idea. So follow the instructions and see how much fun this is.
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.

Our New Family Edition!

With all of the trying, and trying to get pregnant we have finally figured it out. No we are not having a baby, we figured out its easier to have dogs instead of kids. So our new edition to our family starts off like this. The MCSO (Maricopa County Sheriffs Office) rescued this dog from an abusive environment. Steven volunteers with MCSO and they emailed him asking if he or anyone else he knew would be interested in taking this dog and giving him a new home. Well we saw the pictures of him and went to just "look" at him knowing that we already have two crazy animals and don't really need another. Well after the second we meet him we knew that he was meant to be part of our unusual family. So meet General,
can you guess who named him? Yep, Steven. Steven is obsessed with war movies and so General comes from a General in the military. The pictures do not really do justice of how big he is but he truly reins over our other two. We are not exactly sure of his age but, we were told about two or three. He is super skinny even though the pictures does not really show it.
Yes, he is nutor so no puppies coming our way thank goodness. He is already trained and listens better than our other two yahoos. He and the girls are still trying to adjust to one another and he is kind of getting use to his new name, no one knows what his original name was.
Here is a picture of him and Penny this kind of shows the size difference. It is funny because Penny is a queensland healer-german sheperd mix and yet she looks identical to General except for the size and her red color. We are so greatful for the opportunity to help General and add a new family member to our home.

Fly, Fly, Fly away!

Well no need to buy a fly swatter I have a dog to take care of them. In this video Bailey is trying to catch a fly. She usually catches them, I know its gross but it is pretty funny to watch. The fly was not cooperating so she lost interest and gave up. So you see if your kids are ever bored just tell them to chase a fly around the house it should keep them busy for a little while and you will have fun watching them do it. P.S. Don't mind the messy office and the noise in the background is me laughing and Steven watching Micheal Phelps win yet another Gold medal and break another word record surprise surprise.

Peace and Quiet!

Well it is no longer loud and crazy at our house anymore. Unfortunately, our house guests have left. We truly loved and will miss a crazy house full of boys. This was the last picture I was able to take of one of the twins. Ya I still can not tell them apart. The only way I was able to tell them apart was their personalities. But our dogs seem to be enjoying the peace and quiet. For some reason Penny loves to sleep on her back. I think that it is so funny every time she does it I can not help but laugh because I have never had a dog lay like this before.Well even though we do not have the crazy house full my life has been still crazy. My asthma is not doing well and I think that this brain tumor is giving me headaches or at least something is. And yes I do have a brain tumor it is on my pituitary gland. The Endocrinologist says that it is not cancerous, they are still doing some test to see if everything is ok but it sounds like I won't need to have surgery. The grad school that I am suppose to be starting on my birthday is giving me trouble with financial aid and so I am not positive at this point that I will be able to go. So if anyone knows what I can do with my Kinesiology degree let me know. Steven is still working hard as ever and trying to get over the fact that he does not have boys to play with.
