The week in review...

I woke up to the sound of thunder and driving rain early this morning.
Got up and closed all the windows and went back to bed, but of course I couldn't sleep.
Events of this last week ran through my mind.

We had the Vet out on Monday to look at Scotch.
He had a bad tooth that was about to fall out and a swollen lymph node under his jaw.
He'll be fine in no time though. 

Since the Vet was here we had him look at Bobbi Jo. 
She is one of the kittens Bunka had a few months ago with no tail. The Vet confirmed that she must have gotten stepped on by a horse and her upper jaw was indeed broken. 
Poor baby. 
Chyann and I have been feeding/watering her with a syringe all week and she is really coming around, starting to eat solid foods too. 
The swelling in her face is almost gone and let me tell you she looked pretty rough for a while there. 

Bobbi Jo napping on Cadens back back.


The kids ended another school year!
Chyann is officially a Junior and Caden is a sixth grader!
Imagine that! 

Two baseball games this last week and the boys won both of them!


The Hubby brought home a new dog.
Like we need another dog like a hole in the head.
A gal at his work got him for her daughter and the daughter lost interest in taking care of him so the gal was going to take him to the pound if the Hubby didn't take him.

How could he say no to a 10 month old purebred yellow lab that has had obedience training?
He is a nice boy with decent manners.
He will sit, stay, shake, lay down and fetch. 


The kids all have fun playing fetch with him.
No name for the boy yet - we can't come to a unanimous decision at this point.
Some of the name in the running are:
Hudson, Yukon, Smickens - yeah no idea where that name came from, Doc or Dodger.
He comes to all of them lol

The most friendly people dog I've ever been around. 
Our little dogs do not like him much at this point.  

Finally got the grass mowed. 
Course with all this rain today, I'll be doing it again as soon as it dries out. 


Colton completed his first week doing the internship and says it's the best job ever!
Love it!


Have a great weekend!

You have had a very busy week. Now for some summertime fun...bring one of those wonderful looking (is that a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie?) poolside.

About time you had a big dog and not one of the ankle biters! Pick a good name. I like Wilson for a name.

LOL Funny you say that Kris, because that was suggested and I really like it!

Awe poor kitty! And I just put 2 and 2 together... Caden and Tori must be about the same age because she'll be in 6th grade this next year also.
