I really need to get my camera out more. When I browse back through my posts I realize I hardly post any pictures of us, or me! For some of you that might be just fine, but I know my sister (who reads this blog just about every day) would probably love to see more photos of us (wouldn't you Nenna?), so I shall try to use my camera more and post about what we're up to as well as post about the things I like doing ;-)
We had a huge storm last night. Kristen came in to my room around midnight, Jason hadn't even come to bed by then. The thunder was so loud - and the lightening, wow! Boo came running in after Kristen but I took him back downstairs and told Jason to keep him with him. When Kristen comes in to our room (which isn't that often) Jason will opt to sleep in the guest room so we aren't all squashed up together. Thankfully we all got a good night sleep, I think I fell asleep even before the thunder stopped.
It's pouring with rain still this morning. I'd love to just stay home all day but I have to take Boo to the vet for his yearly shots. I was just there yesterday with our hamster! I posted a status about it on my Facebook page. Our little hamster is losing all her fur :-( I kept putting off calling the vet because I was hoping she was just getting old, and I read up online about it and that is a common thing to happen. But the truth is her skin was starting to look very dry and she was now starting to scratch a lot, so I couldn't deny it any longer... poor little thing obviously has something wrong with her. I just dreaded the vet bill for such a tiny little animal (one that you know won't live much past 3 years either!). I don't mean to sound cruel but honestly, paying hundreds of dollars to keep a little rodent alive, does not make sense to me, not when people are starving and suffering around the world!)
I took her anyway, and the vet, although she didn't quite know what could be causing it, gave me some antibiotic drops for her and another drop to hopefully help with her skin condition. ...$75 later - We'll give it a try but if it doesn't work there's not much else we can do. She seems fine in every other way, eats well, runs on her wheel etc. So anyway, it's Boos' turn today... I just want to get there and back so I can stay home until it's time to pick Kristen up. I'll leave you with some cute pics of our baby boy playing with his frisbee on the front lawn last year. On days like this it's hard to imagine the grass will ever be green again!
Waiting for his frisbee to be thrown....

Hey Denise, just popping in to say hello and wish you a wonderful weekend. I can't believe your hampster's visit was so much. But what's a girl to do when our babies get sick, right?
Would love to see more pics of you and the family too btw. :) Such a cute family you are.
Hugs,
Cindy
Awww Boo is so cute!! I know what you mean about the green grass, all I see when I open the doors or look through the window is white. I cannot wait for spring! Hope your little hamster gets better soon. Have a great weekend. *hugs*
He is SO cute. You got a great shot of him running with the fisbee.
I LOVE doggies. And these pictures of yours are adorable. :)
Have a great weekend!
I agree with you about the hamster, but you have to do it for the kids. I learned after we had a rabbit for awhile and it had a mishap with a squirrel~big vet bill!! Let us know the deal with the fur loss!
Cute puppy!!

Can *Boo* be any cuter? Between his darling name and these pictures. Oh my goodness!
Poor little hamster. ~Ah.
Can you tell I just LOVE all animals so much?
Stay warm! ~Melissa :)
PS Thank you for visiting "Carol" my "Blog of the Week". She is so kind and was one of my very first blog friends when I started way back over a year ago. I had no idea anyone even used the feature for sure. Thank you! Can I make you my next BOTW? I'll be changing it on Sunday.
Cute Boo with his frisbee Denise. Did you get your cook book? I have heard so much about it...but I don't really like cooking, but if it has a picture for every recipe, well I just might try it. Randy would love it I'm sure...me cooking that is lol
Have a great weekend.
BTW Your picture is beautiful.
