Terrible Two's...

six weeks....
4 months = Terrible 2's in Dog years supposedly...Our precious bullet is growing up. He is in his terrible two's. He is fully potty trained but there are some days his little devil side comes and he will stare at you and then pee on the floor. You would think he would learn after the punishment he gets! Dang dog :) He also, being the terrier that he is, loves people. We can't let him off a leash or out of our hands outside when someone new is near because he will sprint over to them and jump and lick them to death. It might be cute for people who like dogs but I don't like it and I'm sure people don't appreciate it. We are trying to get it through his head that he has to calm down. He has selective memory and can only hear when he chooses too. Warning, if you knock on our door be prepared for some crazy dog to be flipping around in our arms trying to get out and love on you.

Also, this last week I took him to the vet to get his last puppy shots. The minute we arrived he was freaking out with excitement. He was on his leash and about choking himself to death. I am just grateful he isn't a pee-er when he is excited. He wouldn't hold still long enough to get his weight so it was somewhere around 10 lbs. When they took his temperate he had a fever and the only thing we could conclude is that his heart had been racing so fast because he is a spaz that he caused the fever. Anyways, he is a great pup but he is insane over people!!!

Basically... I'm bored, brad is watching some game on t.v. and bullet is chewing on a bone... Happy Saturday! April has almost come and gone, i can't believe it!

Easter Weekend

I am so mad for not taking any pictures but we had a great Easter weekend!

First off, I'm either really dumb or I am just going to blame it on my parents...:) Embarrassed to say, the term "Good Friday" was something new for me this year. I guess growing up in Idaho and being around the LDS religion my whole life, Good Friday was left out. Since we don't focus on the death of Jesus Christ but rather the resurrection and that He Lives, "Good Friday" at my house was never really mentioned (or else I never paid attention). I mean, don't let me confuse you that i don't know what happened on "Good Friday", that's not it at all, I just never have heard the term Good Friday.

Living in Oklahoma has really been great for me because it has opened my eyes and perspective of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I love all the missionary experiences there are out here. It is nice having neighbors and friends that have the strongest testimony of our Savior and live their life full of service and giving. I'm so grateful for the knowledge I have about our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I'm also extremely grateful that I was able to gain a body and live in this wonderful world with the saving power of the atonement witch was made possible by our Savior.

Saturday we had a really nice time outside with Bullet and his new best friend Kiya. Cassie's Dad came down for Easter weekend and brought his dog Kiya, a Miniature Australian Sheppard. It was the third time they have played together and they love it. We fished at our pond (didn't catch anything, but it was fun), played hide and seek with Bullet in the trees, and went to Eskimo Joes. Sunday we had an awesome Easter dinner. Cassie's dad brought a delicious ham and we had my favorite Won Ton Chicken Salad, yummy mashed potatoes, and biscuits. I ate way to much just with the real food and then on top of that I ate enough desert to last a year. Needless to say, it's my goal to work out every day this week. :)
I hope you all had a great Easter weekend as well. What a great time to reflect on the Savior.

I've been Slackin'

But lately we have:

Watched Oklahoma State beat OU in the Big 12 Tournament


Almost got the Griffin parents in our picture.
Brad was a little late snapping it - they walked in the building right as he took the pic.

I've been making hats and bibs for friends


We've had some crazy storms lately - this picture gives no justice to the size of the hail.


And, we still love Bullet!
