"POTENTIONALLY DANGEROUS DOG"


OK, So does this look like a dog who would hurt you? The City of Everett has declared our Chance Puppy a Potentionally Dangerous Dog only because of her BREED. No incident has occurred and she is a wonderful and loving little dog. Even the girl at the Pound said they are trying to fight Everett on this ruling, but no luck yet. So I'll leave this to you to vote. Thanks EVERETT ps I didn't pose her for this photo. She just got this little monkey as her new toy.

EVERGREEN STATE FAIR







heyoooo. Went to the "Kids Day" day at the fair today with Erik, Hannah, Ashley, Paige, Ann, Rachel and Alex. It was fun. Weather was a bit crazy, rain, sun, clouds, pretty much Washington weather. We saw all the animals, including baby pigs, baby bunnies, dogs, horses, ponies, etc. The kids rode a few rides and then we left before it got too busy. The night time will probably be crazy with the older kids 12-15. 15 and under were free to get in today and they got a cheap ride arm band pass. Here are some pictures of the fun.

Home alone on a Saturday Night.....

Hey all...Well I haven't been home alone in a long time on a Saturday night. Jeff and Katey went on a father/daughter weekend to a resort call the Oasis in Phoenix Arizona. It is a great big water park. They had been there a while ago (7 years I think) so they wanted to go where it was hot and bake. I'll be going to London with Linda and Beth in September so they get this time and vacation. Sounds like they are having a fun time (although 110 does not sound fun at all to me). Chance and I have been hanging out, doing a bit of garage sales today and some yard work yesterday. That is about it. Well I'm off to watch some of the Olympics. Hope you all are, pretty exciting stuff.

COMMENTS.....

Wow, I had no idea until tonight that people were leaving comments on my blog. Having this new laptop and actually spending more time on the computer has sure opened my eyes. I had no idea people were actually leaving comments for me on my posts. Thank you to everyone who is reading this. I now also know I can leave comments for your blogs so I will try to do this as well. I do have a question for anyone, is there a way to set up my blog so that it alerts me when I have new comments? That would help me to view them. Okay, we happy bloggin.....

New Computer

WAHOOOO. We got a new laptop for the family so now I don't have to be downstairs to get on the internet. When the kids are here they will be using it for school, etc. but it will be a lot easier for me to keep up on this blog now. I have checked out the two blogs for the mayreunion and they look great. Thank you to Kevin and Liz for putting those together. Hopefully we can keep the momentum going and have a fun reunion next year.

As an update Mom and Dad (grandma and grandpa) are doing better. They are basically trying to mostly go it alone with minimal help from me. So my time has been freed up a bit now. They seem to be doing okay, but I know it is frustrating for them both. Emails and calls would probably be good from anyone, just don't call between 10 and 11 a.m. pacific and around 5 p.m. pacific. Dad won't be able to get the phone easily as these are breakfast and doggie outside times. Well, it is late now so i'll go. I really don't know if anyone actually reads this but it is fun.
