Blaze and He made it!!

I am, for the first time in my 35 years of life -- a dog owner. True as a young child my family had a few dogs but I had about as much to do with them as well I don't know, very little. I have wanted a dog for my kids for about 8 years but living in the "hood" Cory would hear none of it. Now that we live "out" he can no longer deny me. I've been looking for a few weeks, then Julia and Brind found this little guy for us. He is AMAZING!! He and Duncan are best friends. Tonight Cory and I were harnessing up the two dogs (Duncan is Brind's dog which we are watching) and Benny comes out and says "I want to go!" Bennett never WANTS to go running, so I was super excited. She threw on her runners and we were off. She was worried that she wouldn't make it the 2.3 very hilly miles. Oh she made it all right and loved it then did another mile around the house:) Who knew all I needed to do was buy her a cute little running buddy.


On another note Jackson made it through the first day. Although he did look a little worn out by the time I picked him up after football practice, his only kerfuffle was sitting down in a German class he thought was suppose to be science --hehe.

Stop please stop, you are not helping the anti-dog campaign I'm waging at my house! He sure does look like a great dog tho, and getting my kids to be excited about running would be tremendous...I have a feeling I'm going to have to give in...

Sweet doggie. Oh, geesh. Can my kids come live with you??

look Min, Darla came up with the solution...send your kids to Meagan's house! You get rid of the kids and you don't have to have a dog! PERFECT!

So how do you transition from being terrified of dogs, to actually wanting to own one; cause I'm nowhere near that. Well, the running motivation for my kids is super tempting. I love that Jack was in the wrong class. Too funny. You know he completely bewitched my children while he was here, right? Lest we forget Cash's marriage proposal. I think he thinks being married means hanging out with someone really, really cool all day. And I mean that only in a flattering way towards Kev. He doesn't think I'm the cool one. No. No, he doesn't.
