I keep forgetting to add another blog, but I'm finally back to add some very exciting news! We have a new addition to our family - no not a baby (yet) - a YORKIE!!! His name is Mr. Darcy. He is so fun! I finally got a dog that likes me! He follows me everywhere and doesn't like to be picked up by anyone but me. I know it's selfish, but Ginger (our female boxer) was supposed to be mine - she attached herself to Sam, so I brought home Mader who loves everyone! So I brought home Dexter who attached himself to Savanah, so then I brought home Button - who attached herself to Sam!! When I brought home Mr. Darcy I told Sam she couldn't hold him for a month! She still holds him from time to time though, but he still likes me!!!! I never thought I'd say this, but he sleeps on my pillow every night!


Ammon and Caianna have been going to school at Grandma Conover's house every Tues. - Fri. from Noon to 3:00, they really enjoy it. Katelynn even comes for about the first 15 minutes.


Sam, Heather & Savanah have taken on the project of painting the front of the house - it's really looking nice, I wish I'd taken a before pic so I could post before and after pics. Oh, well...hindsite!


Samantha gave a GREAT talk in YM tonight, she had everyone laughing, I'll try to add it to the blog tomorrow.


I guess that's all for now, lots of exciting things going on, but I'm ready for bed (along with the rest of the family!)



The pics I added are of Darcy with Spencer (his dad), and Darcy with his littermate to the right of him.

I've been very lazy, well, not really. I've been very sick! But it's finally lifting, and there's lots to catch up on. I spent most of Christmas in bed so I missed a lot - bummer. But we had family in town which was fun.

Our puppies are getting bigger, they are getting their first shots and microchipped on Monday. We're moving some of the rooms around in the house. We're turning the master bedroom into Don's office, and I'm ripping out the carpet and painting and glossing the floor and painting the walls in the front room. Then I'm painting the outside of the house.

Saturday we're having a yard sale - by the end of the day I plan to GIVE things away just to get rid of the excess stuff - I can't wait!

Don's flyer company is growing so much faster than we had expected it to, what a blessing!


I will update my site as soon as I can. Nothing like Christmas music in January!
By the way, this is my new hair color (well, actually not new, this is what it would be if I had never died it in the first place). I like it anyway!
