Rocky The Blind Dog

Our poor, old dog Rocky just got lost in our backyard today. I saw him out there walking around and I thought he was just having some fun in the snow. Probably 20 minutes later I told Kayla to go see if Rocky was at the door yet. Nope. So I put on some shoes and go out there and he's still just wandering around. I start calling his name and he turns and starts running towards the house. It took a couple minutes of me calling, and clapping my hands to get him to come over to me. Then I had to lift him up and PUT him on the stairs.

This may sound ridiculous, but I swear that after he got into the house he was pouting. He just had this look of "...stupid, I got lost in the backyard!"

Halloween 2009


Jaida the ghost

Kayla the Unicorn

Joey the frog

We went to Jaida's school carnival on Friday. The kids had blast! In fact Kayla had so much fun that she took off her costume, laid down on the school lunch bench and threw up. Both Monty and I were sitting on the other side of the table and were completely oblivious - we couldn't see a thing. A couple of parents came over to let us know what was going on and offer help. Kayla didn't cry or tell us she'd thrown up or anything, she just laid there like it was nothing new.

One of our neighbors was one to come over and help out. She held Joey - who was asleep, while I took Kayla to the bathroom to clean up. About 10 minutes later Kayla went over to play the "cake walk" game. She was the only one playing and WON! She was celebrating like it was Christmas. The two guys running the game were just cracking up laughing thinking she was so hilarious.
