2 years....and I forgot!!

April 9th, TJ and I have been a family for 2 years.  Thursday April 9th of 2007 I adopted TJ from the Canyon County Animal Shelter.

This is what he looked like then:

And here he is now:

Not much change....  :)

But here he is with his haircut (which happened on April 6th)



But in the two years:
-he has escaped numerous times
-hates taking a bath
-innumerable trips to the dog park
-hunderds of pictures
-3 trips to the vet
-millions of car rides
-1 birthday party
-2 houses
-2  collars
-1 leash
-4 camping trips
-a million cuddle hours

April ride..

For my birthday, Dad, John, and I went riding in the Owyhee's. It was AWESOME!! Snow was everywhere and kept falling while we were out. I usually never where a helmet but so happy I did today. I was especially thankful I could still wear my sunglasses. If not, I would have been blinded by the snow. I LOVE to ride!! THANKS DAD!!

Zoo Eggstravaganza

Today, Zoo Boise was hosting their annual Eggstravagnza Egg Scramble. I loaded up two of my neices, Kaylee and Emma, as well as my friend, Brehdi. It was so fun. We got to see the Tigers up close and also play. Then we also saw a baby....wambat or something. I think we were at the zoo for maybe 3-3.5 hours. It was great. :)

It's been awhile...

since there has been any pictures or mentions of TJ. So to make up for lost time..here are some random pictures. He got his hair cut on April 6th....just FYI.

Slumber party...

Random pics from awhile ago.  Can't remember the circumstances but saw the draft in my blog list so thought I better publish it. :)

And I moved.

In case you haven't heard, I have moved back in the with 'rents (aka parents). I had to move because the complex was settling and deemd structurally unsound. So the property management told me I had 2 weeks to be out. I was notified of the move on Febuaray 14 (Monday) and needed to be out by the end of the month. OH JOY!! I did it. The plants and the living room were the first to go as they were some of the most precious items. (Just FYI, the door was on my last day and everything was out..tear :( ) So into the old homestead. It was cramped for a couple of weeks. Because not only was I there, but so was my sister, her husband, and their 2 year old. Plus Mom and Dad. Then TJ. It was interesting. Finally sister moved into her house and I moved into my old high school bedroom. Which is fitting because I am headed back to school. I am enrolling in a local community college, CWI. I plan on studying business administration or something with computers. Who knows. But living with my parents not only allows me to go to school debt free, it also allows me to save for a home. There is a time frame on this project though. I will be out of here by my 30th birthday. That is 3 years from now. Hopefully something changes prior to that but right now that is the plan.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Not sure where to start so I will dive right in....

I LOVE LOVE LOVE working in the new department. My days are busy and go by so quickly.  There is one drawback.  The temp in the group.  They have come in late 3 days...3 days out of 30!!  I am not talking 2 mins lite or even 5.  It has been 10 mins or more!!  He doesn't step up and take over projects.  He is ok with skating by.  Why he is even over there is beyond me.  Oh well.  I take comfort in the fact he is just temp and I am permanent.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my finger nails.  I have let them grow out and think they are wonderful.  I am usually a nail biter so this is a good change.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the spring weather.  It makes everything feel new, vibrant, and rejovinating. 

I LOVE LOVE LOVE sleeping in fresh sheets.  I just changed mine last night and it is heavenly!!
