I'm Sure....

Things could be better but I don't know how.
The weather is great today and we are enjoying it on the shaded back deck. My mom and I are spending the weekend together and Bo is loving having his granny being here to follow around.

Sitting here taking it all in makes me truly appreciate just how good life is. If life is what you make it then we've done a great job, we have truly been blessed with good family and friends, good health, and a son who has a beautiful girlfriend and a great job.

For two kids who started out struggling to make ends meet with a baby we have done alright for ourselves and our family, we've worked hard so that we can not only take care of ourselves but so that we can take care of our families as well.

We have some new tenants nesting under the deck roof and this morning we got our first peak at what they've been sitting on.

I Am Sick and Tired....

Of being in the house....

Bo has been asking all weekend to go for a ride, somewhere, anywhere, he doesn't care where. So this afternoon I put him in his harness grabbed his pooper scooper bags and loaded him in the truck. He was so excited he could hardly stand it, saying he loves riding in the truck is an understatement. I brought him for a walk in the park and he and I enjoyed all the sights and sounds and smells the world has to offer. He enjoyed all the squirrels and all the kids playing in the park got him excited and at one point he almost chased their baseball but was able to restrain himself, I was so proud of him because I know he really wanted to race them to that ball and steal it from them but he didn't.

His training paid off because he walked really well on leash, he doesn't drag me around at all even when a squirrel ran across the sidewalk in front of us.

We really enjoyed the day, the wonderful weather just made things even better. Our life is wonderful and I couldn't imagine anything that could make it better.

He is totally worn out and I imagine he will certainly snore tonight.
