Football fever...

I think with football season under go... "the teenager" has to go find a way to vent some of his penned up energy! Luckily our little Taylor is always eager to oblige...

They run and play... but she really wants the ball...
And he doesn't even play fair.

Hey that's holding, you can't push her head down like that!!!!

Even when he cheats, she can still out run him....

And "break his ankles" (sorry for the wording patz... that's what the kids call it when they can out maneuver someone).Now bite him while he's down... and get that ball!

-----------------------------

I love it when these guys get to playing really hard like this.... it's so fun for the puppy, and since the teenager has never had any little brothers or sisters to beat up on or tease, he seems to enjoy taking it all out on the dogs. But they are all able to hold their own with him. She was growling and barking at him the whole time.

At the end of the day, none of them will sleep in his bed with him, no matter how much he begs... I think they just remember all the cheating and teasing he does to them. Plus if they can get in and find a spot to curl up on our tempurpedic... why not right?

Visiting Teaching...

I really wish over the years I would have documented all of my visiting teaching partners from church. I think I remember most of them, because I almost always become great freinds with them along the way.

.

I hope that is the case this time... Meet Alison... aka Sister Bishop (she is our Bishops wife)! She is also Mom to one of my "blogger girls", and also to one of my Young Women in our Ward. I have known her almost since we moved here, but never had an opportunity to work close with her, only admired her from afar (and never ever noticed how BLUE her eyes are!!! wow she had beautiful eyes!!!).

.

I am really looking forward to getting to know her better and really hope she becomes one of those great friends that I never ever forget. I will try not to be too glomy and clingy, and run her off. But I love being vt companions already!!!

.

So here is my new beginning at documenting my vt companions from here on out... what a great place to start!

Ink ~ Shmink....

I wasted almost my whole day yesterday in between all the work I had to catch up on, dealing with ink cartridges for my printer.

Unfortunately this isn't the 1st time I have had to do this.

.

It's so ugly, black smudges every where, even when I am trying to be careful!

.

Then the printer doesn't recognize the new cartridge, then the next new cartridge won't prime, then the next new cartridge primes but the page is totally blank when it prints!!! ARRRGGGGG!!! Returning all of them, and now spending my time on research for a new printer... Laser vs. Ink jet... it's quite a controversy out there in the Internet world. I will go see what consumer reports says and go from there.

.

Ink Shmink!!

I did take time out to run go get my haircut, but didn't get a picture of me and Katie because I forgot my camera, and today it looks really weird and feels super short, so I am not sure I want to do a picture now.
