This is just too cute not to share. This is what I found last night when I went to bed. The dog was also asleep until I got the camera out. This is usually the scene I see every night when I go to bed.
I don't know how this happened. I have NEVER had a dog sleep on the bed and especially NOT under the covers! She thinks that's where she belongs though. Usually right on top of my legs. I am glad she doesn't really shed.
The cat is angry at all of us because the dog took over his spot.
How has this happened? I'm sharing my nice big bed with an 8 year old and now a dog! Will Erika ever sleep in her own bed? She promises it will be before she's 20!! That's good to know. :-)

Dinner with the Christensen's
Yes I know these posts are all out of order but that is just how it is!
In October, I found my old friend Kristin (Kimberlin) Christensen on facebook (another reason you should get on there if you aren't!!). I haven't seen her for way too long! They live just south of us about 50 miles. She invited us to her house for dinner and we had a great time. She's got a great family!
Erika on the porch. Such a cute house!
A lake on the adjoining property, they swim in it during the summer.
Corey and Barbie
Barbie not so happy!
Kimber, Mark, Erika, Kristin, Corey, Paula, Justine, and Colton
Notice Erika holding hands with Mark, it's a problem! She does it to everyone. I think she just misses having her Dad around.

Thanksgiving 2008
Once again we packed up and drove to Winslow for Thanksgiving.
The kids were worried about missing more school so we didn't leave until after 2pm. That was a mistake! We had barely crossed over the mountains when the snow started to fall and it was already dark. What a long drive - we had snow, rain, fog, deer, coyotes and racoons! CRAZY!!
I failed to take very many pictures, I'm disappointed about that. Diane, Carl, Stacey, Ryan and Caden came on Friday. I had lunch with Virginia and Yolanda on Friday. Judy and Steven also came from Phoenix on Saturday. We had lots of company but it was great to see everyone. I miss my family and friends for sure.
Virginia, Paula and Yolanda - That was so great! I'm not even sure the last time we all got together.
Rest area - Dog stop! Colton's picture of the sun (technically the rail-always dreaming of snowboarding). We brought a puppy back to Jesse and Amber in Provo. That's 3 dogs and 3 kids in the car for 11+ hours! It was much longer on the way home.

We stayed with Dona and Gerry this year. I think we wore them out with all of our company!

Lyndsay and Colton
As many grandkids as we could find at the moment!
Cindy, Daniel, Mom and Paula - Missing my oldest brother David
Diane and Bean, the hosts of Thanksgiving dinner every year!

The Moon
Izzy at school
Erika has been begging me for years to take the dog or cat to school. Rico is just too much for me to handle with that many people around. He's 4 now but still too big and strong for me to control in a crowd.
Since we got Izzy, Erika was determined to take her to school. She asked me every day to walk her to school so the kids could see her dog. I didn't really think a dog at school first thing in the morning was the best idea (for the teacher's sake). So on the last day of school before Christmas break, Corey and I took Izzy to 3rd grade. Erika even dressed her up for the occasion!
According to Colton - this is humiliating!
There were a few kids that weren't crazy about the idea, one was even standing on his chair.
Most of them were chasing the dog around the room, I'm sure Ms. Giles was glad that they only had 30 minutes left of class. It was a little wild!

More dog pictures
Where does the time go?
As you can see I have taken a few months off from blogging. I don't have any excuses so I won't even try. I'm hoping life improves and I can get out of this rut I'm in.
We went to Winslow for Thanksgiving and saw lots of old friends and family. We had a great time, it was the first time traveling with 2 dogs. That was an adventure.
We spent a quiet Christmas at home. I bought a new camera and have pictures to download so I will hopefully get some posted soon.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
