Oh for the love of puppies!!

On Monday it was cold and rainy and last Friday Sally (puppy #1) got spayed so for these reason I felt I had no other choice than to leave the puppies in the house. Alone. For about 8 hours. I could just tell you what they did but I think that it is best to just show you.




Needless to say we have had to find other alternatives on where to leave the dogs on cold, wet days. Lesson learned. I still love them and I did not kill them :)

PS. I was really sick of that chair and I want a new one anyway. So lets just look at this as a good thing. Right?

Just a funny little story

Yesterday it snowed and snowed and then it snowed some more. Needless to say when Addy and I walked out the front door yesterday morning there was quit a bit of snow on the ground. Well Addy being as cute as she is gasped and said "oh bubbles!!" It was so funny! She thought that the snow was a bunch of bubbles! And even though I kept telling her all day that it was snow she still insisted that it was bubbles. Oh well it is cute!

On another note Addy got to dress up in her garden gnome costume today and I just have to say she looked adorable! I will post some pictures later but for now you just have to trust that she looked just cute!

It was time to say goodbye

On Monday this week we had to say good bye to our old girl Izzy. She was the sweetest dog that never did listen. Even at ten years old she still pottied in the house. But we loved her still and it was hard to let her go! On Monday night Addy asked where Izzy was while we were eating dinner (Izzy was always there to pick up the scraps) and I told her she went to the moon....Addy loves the moon so I knew she would know what I was talking about if I said that. Later that night Addy said "Izzy...moon??" and I said "yep that is right." Luke had a hard time because Izzy has been here his entire life but he understood that she was in pain and it was time. We miss her and the house in not the same without her but now she is with her best friend Dignon. I'm sure they are having the time of the life! Let me tell you losing two dogs in one year has been the hardest thing this family has ever had to go through and I am glad we won't have to go through this pain for a long time.

We now have just Sally and Rosco and they are great fun and we love them so so much. I know our family will always be missing the original two but it is nice to know that we have two others that love us like they did.

Goodbye! We loved you so!


The two lovers during happier time

Where have you been??

I know this is the question you have been asking yourselves. Where has Ariel been and why has she not blogged for a month? Who knows really? I've been around cooking, cleaning, baking, being a mom and wife, and oh and I also do that thing called going to work. I have not posted pictures in a really long time so here you have it....pictures of the kid and one of the new pup. Aren't they both the cutest??

On another note I am pretty stoked that it is finally fall and I can wear my sweaters and what not. It is beautiful and perfect outside most days and I wish this weather would never ever end. I am excited for halloween! We decorated and I just want to decorate more! Today we went to the DI (thrift store) and bought Luke his costume, he is going to be an orphan, It is going to be pretty rad! I hope everyone is enjoying fall as much as I am! Enjoy it while you can for it will be gone before we can say "Harry Potter." I think I said that because the new Harry Potter movie comes out in a month...or I am just in a weird mood. Who knows?
