The newest addition to the family

Yes, we got a puppy!!!!!!!! I will spare the details of why and how crazy we are but look how adorable she is....

We got her about 1 month ago...we was 6 weeks old, weighed about 2 pounds (now she weighs 4 1/2 lbs), she's the runt of the liter so she will not get very big.

Name: Pip Squeak (the kids named her)

She's mixed Chiwawa & Fox terrier

Pip Squeak has fallen in love with us just as much as we have with her. She's a precious little dog who loves to cuddle but also play rough.  She doesn't look like she can get rough but she can :). She has lots of attitude!!!

Our cat Bonnie is not crazy about the new addition

Isn't she precious?

Fishing

So in the housing development where we live we have 7 ponds that are filled with fish monthly. Brady has been wanting to go fishing; Alexandria not so much but she went. Went a few days ago and the kids caught a fish. You have to look closely because it's small :)

Summer is over and School has started

The kids have started School. Actually school started several weeks ago, I have been a little lazy in posting pictures. 

           Alexandria started 5th grade, middle school. Alex is still adjusting to the new school and all the new rules and procedures. I think I am too. She's in school for almost 8 hours a day, That in its self is enough to adjust to. Not a lot of homework which works being that she's in school so long.

            Brady started 3rd grade. WOW, what an adjustment. The homework is crazy and the hours are long (7 1/2 hours). But he's making friends and enjoying his awesome teacher.

Oh and the kids wear uniforms. Alex & Brady hate it.
