Hanging by the pool at the Wild Horse Resort

Staying at a resort is where it is at. We all had such a fabulous time in this place! I want to go back! It will be hard to go back to staying at regular hotels. Nice view of the golf course and the river. Beautiful weather, it would be fun to move to Pheonix for the winter!!

This was the medium temp. pool. We were so lucky to stay at a place that has three different tempetures in the pools and and awesome slide!!!!

The funest way to go down the slide was face first!

The dinner rehersal

I think Trudy just got a glimpse of the duck head!

So glad our ladies were able to make it to Phoenix!

The guys have no idea what they are in store for for dinner

Jen's 26th Birthday Embarrassment

So, to celebrate my 26th birthday we decided to go out to a karaokee bar and my friends thought it would be a good idea to sign Michael and I up for a duet....how embarrassing!!!!

Today was probably the worst starting day in a while. It already sucked because it was Monday, but I was glad because Maddie will be in town tonight. So, usually when I wake up in the morning I put pickles outside to pee and hit the snooze button for an extra few minutes of sleep. This morning for some reason I hit the OFF button. Two hours later I hear Pickles barking outside, glance at the clock and jump out of bed!! I have 30 minutes to get ready. Then when I go to the kitchen to get coffee and what do I see on the floor? Nothing other than a pile of fresh dog shit! Damn it! I don't have time to clean this up! But, I do it anyway because I did not want to leave it for Michael. Before I clean it up though I have to spank Pickles for her bad doing. As I am reaching for a sandal to whack her with she tries to escape and flings the shit all over the living room with her legs!!!! Damn Dog! Then I get late to school and run around like a headless chicken trying to get things done before the students get there. In the meantime my stomach was growling because I had no breakfast! The rest of the day has been OK but nothing ruins a day more than waking up to shit flying in your house!!

Pickles is One!

Yeah it was Pickles birthday yesterday!! She is so spoiled we took her to the river on the weekend and bought her a huge bone. When we first got Pickles she was the size of a gerbal, now she is full grown into a 30 lb awsome frisbee catcher!! Plus, she is great at whinning. We love you Pickles! P.s. Kayla when is Mojo b-day?

Labor Day Weekend at the Lake

Over the weekend on Labor Day a few of our friends got together and rented a pontoon boat. It was a really fun time.

New Friend in the House

Here is the start of documenting the adventures of Auntie Jenn! Hopefully I can post often and not be a slacker. We will see.

So my first story for you guys is how I found a little friend in my house two days ago. So I come home from a jog and I am getting ready to fix dinner. I look over in the living room to find Pickles acting really funny. She keeps looking under the couch and backing away. I go over and ask her what she is doing, she said look for yourself. Then as I am bending down I only see a tennis ball under the couch. Then, across the room I see a GIANT rat racing across the house!!!! I stood up quickly and thought to myself...did I just see that?? Then, behind my drawing board I can see a tail sticking out. Michael has just left to go to Walmart so I have to deal with this on my own. I go to the kitchen, take out the trash bag out of the can and rig the can next to one of the openings by the drawing board and the wall. Then I take a long fake flower and push on the other side. I heard a few squiks and then our friend went into the trash can. Yeah!! Victory! Then I quickly stand the can up and look inside. He was about 6 inches long, not including the tail. Just then I heard Michael coming home. So I go outside and show him my proud catch. He saw something move and thought it was a snake and went running!!! After we calmed down we decided it would be best to take it somewhere far from our house. So I had to get in the car with trash can, carefully making sure it won't tip over, and drive it to the field across our neighborhood. Now I am safe to say that our friend is lost and has no idea where he is.

Moral of the story.... fix your broken screen and don't use it as a doggy door because you never know what is going to crawl inside with it.
