Dirt Art

J. Bear's dirt masterpiece.

First Day of School!

Today was the first day of 1st grade for Torpedo and 3rd grade for J. Bear.
Torpedo told me this morning that he had a weird feeling in his tummy. I asked why and his response was "because it is my first day of school."
The things Torpedo is looking forward to in 1st grade is his new teacher (she is a first year teacher) and his friends.

J. Bear woke up with a giant smile on her face and that smile never faded. She was so ready.
J. Bear is looking forward to learning more about math (her favorite) and science.
We are real excited for the upcoming school year.

2nd Favorite Thing in the World

Torpedo likes to ask "What is your 2nd favorite thing in the world?" He has been asking this to all of us for the last couple of weeks. (that child when he gets stuck on something, he can't let it go)

He says "2nd favorite thing" because he said God is number one.

Well, I am wondering what's your 2nd favorite thing in the world. Leave your answer in the comments. It will light up Torpedo's day just to see what you all say.

Torpedo's is video games
Big Daddy's is "spending time with my family"
J. Bear's is "I don't know, I like a lot of things" (she tells Torpedo that all the time)
Mine is my family. I have a wonderful, hard working husband and two dorky, crazy and beautiful children. I couldn't ask for anything more than that.

Switch-a-roo

This is Gus before I got on the wonderful worldwide web and learned how to groom him. What a fluff ball. Yes, I groomed him not a professional.

This is after. He looks like a different dog. If we didn't know his personality, we would think someone switched our dog with a different one. I love the black tip on his tail. It gives him character.
