Fun in the Sun

The last week has been very warm with temperatures ranging from 98 to 103. We have spent a lot of time in the pool and today was no exception. Hunter had a great time jumping from the top of the waterfall and as you can see by some of the pictures in the video below, Khloee was right behind him. I am always worried he will get hurt but he has no fear. Wow...103 at the beginning of the warm up...we might be in for a long hot summer.

Sweet Dayzee

January 31, 2005 - April 28, 2009

On April 20th, Dayzee was diagnosed with IMHA. Her immune system started to attack and destroy her red blood cells. She became very weak and stopped eating. She was hospitalized twice where her vet gave her two blood transfusion and tried to suppress her immune system so her body could rebuild her blood supply. She fought hard but after a week, it was clear she was too weak to fight the disease and her body gave up. We really miss Dayzee but have a lot of fun memories of her.

The Shark Reef

Dylan is in town visiting us for Spring Break. He had never been to the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay so we thought it would be fun to take him. Some of his favorites were the bright colored jellyfish, the alligator, the sting rays, the Komodo Dragon, and of course the sharks.

Monster Jam

Hunter & I went to Monster Jam at Sam Boyd Stadium. Hunter likes to watch it on TV and we have never had the opportunity to go so when Khara and Paydon offered us the tickets, we took them up on the offer. Paydon had a baseball game and was unableto attend but we had fun. Thanks Khara!

Bowling

This weekend, Dylan had baseball games in Mesquite so grandma decided her, Aunt Penny, Trevor and Dylan would stay at our house instead of a hotel. Even though we enjoyed having them stay with us, I don't think Aunt Penny was thrilled at the idea of driving back and forth to Mesquite for 3 days but Grandma is the boss. While they were here the boys and I went bowling. I guess I should say I went with Dylan and Hunter. Trevor stayed home and texted his girlfriend while Aunt Penny and Grandma slept. Oh well....we had a great time.

Meet Khloee

This is Khloee. She is a cute little dog but don't let those big sad eyes fool you. She is full of so much energy and loves to tear things apart. By things I mean my shoes, Hunter socks and the carpet. Yes, I have 3 huge holes in the carpet from Khloee's days home. I had forgotten what it was like to have a puppy around. She likes to chew on everything. She chewed a tree in the backyard so I had to discipline her and the next time I let her out for the day she pulled the entire tree out of the ground and left it laying in front of the back door...right where I could see it. Not funny at all. She no longer eats the trees which I am grateful for but I really wish she didn't like the taste of our carpet. She is getting better but I can't wait until she is out of this puppy stage. She just turned 1 so I am hoping we are getting closer to her next stage.
