Highway to the Danger Zone...

Last time we were in Kennesaw, Brandon learned how to ride Sean's motorcycle! He said it was nervous at first, but that he had a lot of fun. He practiced in a parking lot for a couple of days before he finally felt (somewhat) comfortable driving it back to the house. Of course I was worried for him, but to curb my feelings, I took pictures! They remind me a lot of a scene out of Top Gun!

And even though he's cute and all on the bike...he's still not getting one!

New Furniture

Hey everybody! We wanted to show everyone our new furniture! The old stuff held on for as long as it could, but sadly (well, for Brandon anyway) it had to go. The furniture served us well, but it's time had come. We had a sad (again, for Brandon) departure at the local dump for the sofa and Goodwill for the loveseat. We really love our new furniture. It's so pretty and comfortable. not to mention, the house smells like leather! Take a look and tell us what you think about it!

The recliner had to go in our bedroom for the time being because there was no more room in the living room, but I kind of like it there.

Graduation

Sorry we haven't posted these pictures earlier. Brandon graduated from the Medical College of Georiga last weekend. We had about 20 family members come celebrate with us! We are so blessed to have so much family that loves us and supports us! Thank you to all that shared Brandon's special day with us! We'll post some more pictures soon!

Introducing Thomas

Here's the newest addition to the family I nanny for. His name is Thomas! He is really laid back and sweet as can be! And of course, I couldn't leave out his big sister, Kate! She's doing really well with a new baby around!

We're the Best of Friends

The most unlikely duo - Daisy and Gabe!
They have gotten along so well this whole time. They wear each other out because they love to run around and wrestle all day!

Daisy's role model - someone for her to "look up to!"

A few people have asked for us to post a picture of me next to Gabe...well, here it is! He was about to bark at something, that's why my face looks the way it does! Ain't he a pretty little puppy! Woof!

Our House Guest!

We're dog sitting our friends' puppy for a week! His name is Gabe...He's a 5 year old great dane! We would like for you to meet him!

Please note the size of my hand next to his paw!

Gabe can just about drink out of the kitchen sink or eat off the counters if he wanted to. He's basically the size of a pony. I mean look at him compared to Daisy when they are playing! He's huge!

Oddly enough they play really well together!

This is Daisy leveling the playing field. She has to stand on the armrest of the love seat just to look at him eye to eye!

We're glad you got to meet our new friend! There might be more pictures to come, so stay tuned!

Our Backyard Neighbors

A few weeks ago, we heard Daisy barking wildly at something around our back fence. We weren't sure what it was at first, but we soon realized it was this thing...A BABY OPOSSUM!

There were about 5 babies crawling around all over the place. They were learning how to climb trees after they were "nudged" out by mama!

Here's a pair that were inseparable - they looked like twins to me! They made a terrible clicking noise to each other and hissed at us! Mean little things!

And here's the reason for them all...MAMA! Soon after these pictures were taken, and after a few threats towards the babies from Lexy, mama opossum packed them all up and left town! No more over sized varmints running around anymore!
