Trouble with a PIT BULL!

I couldn’t think of a good way to complain about my neighbor’s new pit bull puppy... so I put it in a poem.

Today I want to scream, cry and even throw a fit,
I looked into the neighbor’s yard and there I saw a Pit!

Although she’s just a puppy and is standing one foot tall,
I see her as a threat and I’m not liking this at all!

I don’t want her for a neighbor, not even just a bit.
While shopping for a dog why’d they pick a pit?

I hope she will stay in her yard and never learn to dig.
My dogs they are so small and she will grow so big!

To her my dogs are a chase to get a little beef.
I watch her chew on the fence just sharpening those teeth.

Will she start to jump high or even chew through steal?
I wana like this new dog but can’t help the way I feel.

I don’t hate all pits, I know that some are very nice,
Just having one so close feels like a roll of dice.

I don't wana take a chance or bottle up this fear
I had my dogs first and love them oh so dear!

So please keep your guard dog locked up nice and tight,
For if she gets out I’m afraid my dogs won’t be much of a fight.

I HATE CARS!!!

Enough said.

Happy Birthday!

My Grandma treated the fam to dinner at Chilies, My Mom spoiled me like always with some great gifts. Joey even surprised me with flowers and Kenny Chesney concert tickets. It was a great birthday!!!

God parents

Joey and I have been asked by our friends (David and Angelique) to be the God Parents to their little girl Gabriela Gonzales. Now neither of us is catholic, nor do we know the first thing about being god parents so we wondered why they would ask us. After talking with David and Angelique we were honored to have been asked. They explained to us that they wanted us to help guide Gabi in her life through our good example and love for each other.

Our first act of god parents is helping in the Baptism; again we don’t know the first thing about this. We attended a class with David and Angelique where we discovered that at least one of us had to be a member of the catholic church (again neither of us are) we just went along for the ride (aka said nothing) I think the Deccan started to catch on when Joey answered the questions “what happens if a baby dies before they are baptized?” with “Baptism for the dead?!”. David and Angelique assured us that everything would work out and it did.

The only hiccup that we had was during the ceremony the Deccan was mistaken in thinking that I was the Mother and that Angelique was the god mother. All during the Baptism I was playing the role as the mother, I even got blessed as the Mother. Again not having a clue as to what I was doing I just went a long with it.

Just look at the cute dress the Joey picked out for her. Gabi is such a cute little girl and Joey and I are blessed to have her in our lives. Also just an FYI Joey would prefer to be called “THE GOD FATHER” now.

After the church ceremony we had a BBQ for Gabi, Oh good times.

Our Little Getaway

For Christmas my aunt and Uncle gave us a weekend getaway stay in their condo in Midway. Since we had the anniversary of us being together for nine years we thought that it was the perfect time to use it, okay, we really needed a getaway from living under construction. It was a blast! The first night we went to this little Mexican restaurant that had a live band and yummy margaritas. Other than that we mostly bunkered down and pretended to be snowed in.

The condo was fully equipped with a kitchen and grill so we decided to go get some food and dine in the rest of the time. The weekend was so relaxing and consisted mostly of yummy food, good conversation, and cuddling by the fire. The view from our deck was amazing! We even had little visitors during the day.

Thanks Garrett and Kristy, what an awesome gift!
