for starters we just had our last group of visitors and we
were sad to see them go but we had the most wonderful time with everyone that
came to see us. so much laughter and fun
{and skiing/snowboarding}. we think and
hope that everyone really enjoyed new mex and we sure are thankful to all of
you for coming all this way to spend time with us!! it means so much.
next, fire season is back in full swing. brian is already
working overtime and the season just started {a week ago}. woohoo!! The good
news… brian will be swamping on the saw crew this season- which means nothing
to most, but to brian this is exciting so naturally i am also SO excited for
him!
also, one of the most exciting things that has happened
fairly recently is the engagement of one of my best, best friends,
heather. you may not believe this, but i
actually do not remember my life without her.
our moms have been friends for many years and they both put us in “mommy
and me” classes at age one. from there
our friendship began. so like I said… I
don’t remember a day of my life without heather which makes this engagement so
special. almost 24 years of a very
wonderful friendship…we have been through many stages of life together {and
stayed friends through the oh so awkward stages of life} and NOW MARRIAGE!! i
mean we talked about these days many, many years ago and now my best friend is
getting married!!!!!!!!!! i am positive
i am starting to bug her by my text messages that say “update please” but i can’t help it! i am so so so so so
excited for her and her amazing fiancé, alby!
of course there will be lots of updates to come.
lastly, most people know, but brian and i adopted a sweet
pup, paisley. she is so special. however, she came with many corks so she
never fails to provide us with great laughs and so much joy. she is scared of everything… but mostly
people. and the tumbleweeds that roll
around on the grass when it’s windy that are actually not scary at all. and the
wire fence at the dog park that brian and i were standing on one side of
calling her name and she made the best attempt to jump over it and go under it
all at the same time which resulted in her getting close-lined. needless to say it takes a little bit of
encouraging to get her through it every time but she is overcoming her
fear.
even though she is
scared of so much she does get excited about things and her tail comes out from
between her legs. she loves the great
outdoors and going anywhere in a vehicle{the challenge is getting her out}. and she especially loves other dogs. my friend caitlin’s dog {cypress} in particular. we think cypress might like paisley a little
but mostly i think she views her as a pest.
the friendship consists of
paisley jumping on cypress over and over again, licking her face, and doing all
kinds of other really weird, annoying things until cypress decides to give in
and play with her. i can only hope that
cypress continues to PUT UP with paise.
Hello! From Paise.
well, that is all for now but i have missed blogging so i
will update again soon! happy easter!
