Dogs are expensive

Well, last Saturday as we were relishing the sleeping in opportunity, our dog, Chesney, broke his leg. I can't really say how it happend, but both the radius and the ulna were snapped into. He underwent surgery on Tuesday and has a large cast on his sweet little leg. Now the challenge is to keep him from running, jumping, playing for 8 weeks. Like that is possible?

The kids are excited that this weekend my brother and his wife are taking them to see High School Musical on Ice. This was a Christmas present that they were excited to get.

Easter 2008

So the Easter bunny strikes again. Jayden was lucky to catch a glimpse of him and pose for a short photo. Lunch at Nana and Grandad's was tasty followed by a fast egg hunt. The prize eggs were the show stopper with money inside. Kate was really excited to hunt eggs this year. We sure missed Breleigh. I am sure she found plenty of candy in Colorado. We are looking forward to hearing if she is having a baby brother or sister this week. I wish I could be there for the sonogram. Last night was fun too! Grandad decided to burn his brush pile since the burn ban was lifted. We roasted hot dogs and made s'mores at their house last night. Other than the thick smell of smoke that permeated our hair and clothes, we had a great time.

Our Spring Break Day Trip

Today The Arthur Family and my mom went to Dinosaur Valley State Park for the day. The kids had a great time. I think the adults had fun too! We climbed over rocks and hiked down paths. The highlight was wading across the flowing river to see dinosaur tracks. We look forward to going back when grandad can come.

Madison, Payten and Scott all gone exploring Big Foot

The three explorers have gone with others from the youth group to preview the site for this years youth camp. The big graw is that Big Foot has been sighted there. Scott is building his whole camp around Big Foot. The kids are all excited. Jayden and I stayed home with the dogs. I am not looking forward to the cleaning that I am left at home to do.

My dog Chesney. Can you guess who inspired his name?
