World Series Champs!!!





Woooohooooo Phillies!! Finally a win for Philadelphia sports fans! Jack (the husband) in particular! I love that everyone is in a good mood here and the news coverage is mostly good news about the Phillies for a change.
We just watched the game at home and i was so nervous but they came through. The parade in Philly is tomorrow at noon and I think they are expecting 1 million people to attend. That is too many people for me to go but I hope it is fun for all who do go.

Halloween 2008








We had our annual Halloween party last Saturday and it was a hit as always! Everyone is so good with their costumes - I love seeing how creative everyone gets! So this year we had the entire Gilligan's Island crew with two Gilligan's (can never have too many Gilligan's), we had some flappers, pink ladies, Philadelphia sports fans and players, pumpkins, mermaids, cowboys and Indians and even Kid Rock and Pam Anderson! It was so much fun - I can't wait to see what you all come up with next year!!!

Meet Mugsy





Our new foster English Bulldog, Mugsy, is ADORABLE! He is so handsome and SO sweet. He needs to be neutered but other than that any family is LUCKY to have this boy. He loves Rose and Rose is not having any of it. All she wants is him to play ball with her. He'll chase her but he doesn't want the ball. He is spectacular with little kids too.
The poor boy does have epilepsy, which is controlled by meds, other than that, he is perfection. I don't think HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue will have trouble finding him a home at all.

Table Clinics


We had our table clinics yesterday at school. I am so glad they are over so I can move on to midterms and my other projects that I have to do. Just one more thing done for the semester!

This is a picture of our class after we were all done with our presentations. I happen to think we all did a nice job.

The Incredible Shrinking Dog



Is our Bubba getting a waistline? Here a few pictures. Judge for yourself. I really think that he is big boned for the most part ;-).

He does act like a starved crazy man though so he may be shedding some lbs but he definitely notices the difference in food. He is hounding us all the time for our food.

Fall Photos


Please hurry and take the picture, his breath stinks.


Ahh, some fresh air.



Ahhhh I love the fall. I love the coolness in the air and all the colors and all the outside activities. It is my FAVORITE time of year, which then leads up to my second favorite, which is the holiday season. It all puts me in such a good mood. Even with the economy being what it is (crap), I still feel so excited that there is a lot of family activities coming up and fun traditions to uphold.
So I made my kids pose as they were laying on the deck yesterday. They looked so cute outside and it was so nice that I just had to snap a few photos. Plus, last year on clearance I got them matching Halloween collars that I wanted to at least put on them for a little bit.

Tonight I am meeting my friend Heather for dinner with Mandy. I am excited because I haven't seen Heather since summer and she is moving back in November! She has interviews on Monday at Penn Hospital so GOOD LUCK Heather!!!

My Birthday Week


Well, I turned 31 on Sunday! I am getting into my 30's now, which is so weird. No more 20's for me. I didn't do a thing on my birthday and that is exactly how I wanted it. I didn't even change out of my pajamas. School has been kicking my butt for weeks now and my weekends are almost just as crazy so I didn't want to do anything except lounge and watch tv and maybe read a little.

The rest of the week went by in a flash. I went to a children's hospital on Monday to clean teeth and I went to the VA hospital on Wednesday and had classes all the other days. Tomorrow I am in the school clinic all day and then I pick up a new foster baby named Bubba! Two Bubba's in one house. This Bubba doesn't really like other dogs though so it is going to tough keeping them seperated again.

The rest of the weekend I hope to do something fun and get some school work done. I have alot coming up with table clinics and midterms. I need to stay caught up and keep going. Dec. 16th, please get here soon!!

Heather (Frizz) is moving home on November 5th!!!! Less than a month away. Miss Frizz will be in town!!! She was in San Diego for four years. Countdown is on!

Rose and Miss P



Here is my attempt at a video. It is a little (a lot) dark and I am constantly say "rose", "P", "rose", Miss P" but we'll try to get better ones now that we kinda know how to do it.

This is Rose being miss bossy pants with our foster Miss P. Little does Miss P know that she could just eat Rose in one gulp. Next will be the introduction to Bubba.
