Christmas

Christmas is one of my favorite holidays.  I was really excited to get my stuff out and put it all up and feel the spirit of the season in my house.  I took some pictures of what I have up.  I haven't put up everything I have or wanted, but what I do have up makes me smile.

 I saw this adorable Santa shopping with my mom and had to have him :)

 My first Nativity that I got last year, it's small, but I love it.

 I've collected the Christmas ornament Barbie's for years, last year my mom gave me a bunch of them for my own tree.

 My first tree angel.

My cute lil' tree :)

I bought these stockings last year for me and the babies.  I love them.

I hope everyone is having a good holiday season and have a wonderful Christmas!!

A breakthrough!

Ever since I've had Sammy (almost a year btw!!) he's had to be locked in his kennel when I'm gone or locked outside because he cannot be trusted.  Sammy had a problem with stealing things, i.e. clothing, towels, whatever, and enticing Bandit into a thrilling game of tug-o-war with said item.  So the last few weeks I've been wondering how he would do in the house with the freedom of the dog door and last Saturday I made the bold choice to leave him in the house.  I went around the house and picked up everything that I thought would be enticing to his greedy little eyes.  After I was confident (not really) that my belongings were safe I left the house.

Fast forward 6 hours (I was gone longer than expected, but enjoyed the visit with my cousin).  The dogs woke up as I was coming in the door (surprise!) and I started doing a thorough check of my house.  To my utter enjoyment, nothing was out of it's place, nor was anything scattered around the back yard!!  So the last few days I've been leaving him in the house while at work and everything is still ok.  I'm soooo glad!!  It makes things easier and I always felt so bad locking him up and leaving Bandit out.

So....I ask you, who has 4 legs and can officially be trusted??

THIS GUY!!!

I'm so proud of him and tell him everyday :)  The following picture is purely for your entertainment....

A beautiful weekend complete with pictures

The pups and I took advantage of the beautiful weather this past weekend and spent most of our time outside.  Friday evening there was a movie in the park at Evergreen Jr High behind my house.  They were playing some oldies music before starting the movie so the pups and I sat outside for a while.  It was a really nice evening and gave me a chance to really enjoy my backyard and play with the lovies.  I took some pictures of them, Sam was more cooperative.

 Bandit kept bringing me her slobbery toy, but she wouldn't let me take it to throw it for her.

 I had to get a picture of her cute dirty pig nose :)

 Sammy does this all the time!  It's so funny how he plays with his toy all by himself.  And he just looks goofy doing it.

 I tried to throw this stick off of my lawn and Sam took it and wouldn't let go, so he has it now.

Saturday my mom and I went in search of paint colors for my new chairs I put together.  I got some fun bright colors that I'm really excited about.  Hopefully I'll get those painted this weekend and I'll post pics then.  While at Home Depot getting paint I got some flowers to plant in some planters my grandma was giving me.  I'm not big on planting flowers, but I need something pretty in my back yard.  I found a lot of flowers that are really pretty and some that promise great blooms so we'll see what happens.  Here's the finished project:

The two big pots have one large plant in the middle and 4 smaller ones around it.  I forgot to get a picture of the last one, I need another pot and more soil so it's not planted yet.  I'm pretty proud of myself for these.  I'm hoping they'll all bloom soon :)

Feeling crafty!! Help?

It's been forever since I've blogged even though I keep taking pictures specifically to blog about!  Well, I'm going to try to change that.  Here goes!!

Last summer my mom bought me some wooden, un-assembled, Adirondack chairs.  Well I have just now gotten around to finally finishing them.  I did one about two weeks ago, but my screwdriver battery died and then I got busy.  I had a day off of work this week so I decided I'd do the second one.

Here they are:

Now I just have to decide if I should paint them some bright fun colors or if I should stain them.  I'm leaning  towards paint, but still not sure.  I'm open to suggestions :) 

So after all of that, I'm still feeling crafty and I want to attempt to make a table to go in the middle of the chairs, and some frames (those will come later)....here is where I encounter a problem.  I don't have all of the tools I need to do this nor do I have instructions.  I'm checking around online and other places.  I'm looking to do this cheap and small.  So friends, if you know how to do these things or somewhere I can get guidance, it would be greatly appreciated!

B.B.

Last weekend Sammy got a new and bigger kennel.  The one I had him in was a tad small for him and since he spends his days there, I wanted something more comfortable for him.  Now that he has a new kennel, Bandit can have her own again.  So last weekend I put a sheet and blanket in her kennel so she could lay in there when she wanted.  Well being the little brat she is she's decided to steal the blankets or sheets from BOTH kennels.  It wouldn't be so bad if Sammy's blanket wasn't already full of holes.  It looks like Swiss cheese actually.

So this morning she wanted into the kennel so she pawed at the door until I opened it for her and she dragged her blankie out and I had to chase her down before she could drag it outside.  While I was doing that I realized she's just living up to her name...Bandit.  I feel stupid because I'm just now putting that together haha.  So we've decided B.B. is now for Blanket Bandit.

 

Obssesion

Continuing with the books theme, I wanted to share a picture of my current obsession.

These are 14 of the first 17 books (in suggested reading order) of the Dark Hunter Series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.  I am just starting the book Acheron, 2nd from the bottom.  It's the biggest book being a whopping 800 pages, but it's also the most anticipated of the series because this character is in the entire series.  These books caught be because of course they're romance, but they have a vampire aspect, both my vices.  What I didn't know when I started them was that they have a huge Greek mythology link too; yet another thing I love.

So if you're into any or all of the things they include you can find them in your local bookstore in the Romance section or my bookshelves :)

HAPPY READING!!!!

Yay books!!!

As many of my friends and family know, I am an avid reader. I live to read! If I could make a living off of reading without needing to go to school for it, I totally would. I even have a book that tells me what books I should read haha. Recently I stumbled upon the blog of a fellow bookworm, you can visit that blog here! This blog has inspired me to attack a bunch of books that I have bought and the list of books I don't have, but want to read.

So in my efforts to do that, I'm going to use my blog to keep track of them. If anyone has any of the books on my list that you'd like to let me borrow, let me know :)
