Summer is Flying By!

Kris and I have been very busy.  Well, Kris has been, I just like to think that I am!  I can't believe it is almost August!  Kris has had a really good summer so far.  He is loving his job!  This summer is much better for him than last.  I would say he fits his job perfectly!  And luckily for them, it is super hot this year!  We haven't receive hardly any rain!!!  We are looking really bad!  My poor flowers and grass!  The rivers are really low, which sends people to Kris!  My work is keeping me busy.  We always have something new!  Bode is still on antibiotics.  His feet look much better now!  He and Scooter got their hair cut today...so Daisy went with me to work.  Our gym may be covered in white hair, but my older people absolutely love her!  They were begging for her to come back tomorrow.  Needless to say she didn't have a nap all day and is knocked out now! Hope all is well!  Come see us!

Bode Drama!

I had to take Bode in to the vet on Saturday because he has been licking his paws, to the point that there is no longer any fur! Thursday night, his little paws were red and swollen, so I made an appointment. It turns out that the has a yeast infection in all four paws, and bilateral ear infections! He must have a high tolerance for pain because the vet said she couldn't even get her tool down in his ear! He hadn't whined or even shook his head like he should have with ear infections. He got a big shot in his hip and is now on 2 different ear drops and 2 antibiotics. I have to wait until the infections have cleared to get his shots up to date! His breed is known to have allergies and we moved him to the allergy country! The vet said dogs allergies flare up in their ears and feet! He is acting completely normal...chasing his ball and fighting with Scooter and Daisy. So hopefully in 2 weeks, everything is back to normal for Bode!

At the Lake

Kris had a very busy Memorial Weekend, so Daisy and I joined my family at the lake.  Daisy seemed to enjoy herself.  I was surprised to see her jump in the water! We took her to a beach area and she had a blast.  She didn't like it too much for me to be in the water, but she didn't mind chasing a ball.  My niece and nephew had a great time playing in the sand! Then it started raining...and it was cold!  Overall, we had a great time.  It was nice seeing everyone again.  I came home Sunday because I had to work on Monday.  Luckily Kris was able to catch up on some of his sleep on Monday!  He said his weekend went smoothly!  I was glad to be back at home with him though!  I think Scooter and Body missed me!  Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!

Raining Finally!

It is raining outside finally!  We received some good rain a few weeks ago, but we are still pretty dry!  I left the gym a few minutes ago and was able to beat the storm home by like 5 minutes! I just hope people are escaping to the concession stands!

Ken and Shirley got to come visit us last weekend.  It was really nice seeing them.  It was a quick trip, but I think we got to do most of the things they wanted.  I enjoyed my time with them.  Kris was able to spend more time with us than we initially thought because of the Swine Flu scare.  I am ready for that to be over with.  It didn't affect my job at all.  They just asked us to carry alcohol hand cleaner with us.  It was kinda weird to go into stores at the outlets and  they had antibacterial hand cleaner on every aisle!  

I took Daisy with me to work the other day while Scooter and Bode got groomed.  Daisy was a big hit!   My little older people loved her.  She would just walk up to them and let them rub all over her!  Then when she was tired, she would lay down on our mat.  I'm sure this will become a regular trip with the boys get their hair done!

Look at these...

...Beautiful Flowers!!!!

Kris surprised me with the beautiful flowers the other day at work.  If you didn't know, April is Occupational Therapy Month.  So, my wonderful husband sent me this bouquet!  It smelled up the entire OT gym and into the halls!  Needless to say, he made a great impression on all of the girls that I work with!  I think it was pretty good of him to remember OT month!  Because I don't get flowers very often, I have taken like 100 pictures!  They still smell sooooo good!  I know he is very busy dealing with his summer season and now the Swine Flu, so it made my day that he thought of me!  I just love the colors!  Great job Kris!!! 

First Visitors!

We had our first visitors of the summer last weekend!  Alisha and Dustin blessed us with a visit! We had a great time with them!    It has been a while since we have seen each other, so it was a good time catching up.  We all got to relax some and share a few laughs!  I hope yall are feeling better!  

Our block is filling up quickly.  For those of you who haven't been here in a while, things will look different!  We now have neighbors on one side and will have one on the other by the end of the summer.  Just a year ago there was only 5 houses, now there is close to 18!  Crazy how fast these houses go up!  Well, I hope everyone is having a great week.  Talk to you soon!
