Doggie Tails


Giddy Up

For the past few months Nick has been riding the broom around like a stick horse. I decided it would probably be best to get him the real thing. We set out to pick the perfect horse last Thursday. Who new they would be so hard to find. After searching Wal-mart, K-mart and Target we finally scored a stick horsey at Magoo's store of Toys. Dang those things are expensive!
It was well worth the cash to see the excitement on Nick's face when he rode on his horsey for the first time!


Telling his new horse night, night!

Hello fellow bloggers. I have definatley missed you all! I have been beyond busy. I hope to have a few things to post in the next couple of days. My camera has numerous pics to show and I know I have a lot to talk about. It is crazy how I have the time to check out everyone elses blog, but no time to post on my own.

Shake It Up

Did you feel the Earthquake last night? I felt my bed shaking and wondered what in the world my husband was doing to make the bed shake like that. When I rolled over he was sound asleep. I tried to wake him up, but he didn't even budge. I have never felt an Earthquake before so I thought it was pretty cool. I would like to know your quake stories.

Thanks to the French's

My mom, Stepfather and Stepbrothers sent me these flowers when they found out that I made it into the Nursing program! Thank you so much. They are still opening and smell fantastic!






Do you remember Lamb Chop?

Nick got this as a gift for his first birthday from his Aunt Judy. He is really starting to become attached to it. When you put your hand in the body it has a few sayings. When he hears Lamb Chop speak, you can see on his face that he thinks she/he is real. At night we put Lamb Chop on his bookshelf and he tells Lamb Chop goodnight. When he wakes up he will go to Lamb Chop and say "sleeping?" It is really cute!

I Made It!!!!!

After nearly three months of anticipation I finally recieved my acceptance letter today. I have been accepted to start the Southwestern Illinois College Nursing Program in June. Only 80 people out of almost 500 applicants were accepted. I am so excited. I finally feel like my life is really coming together! I have worked very hard. I know I have quit a road in front of me, but I have accomplished this so I know I can make it through!
