Still Learning

So I tried to change my Profile but when I did that it would also change Pauls and I don't know how to make it so we have different profiles. So, I had to make the best of the situation but unfortunately it says his name instead of mine. Oh well.

Special Edition Handcart

The trek across country is beginning this Friday so Erin and I built this to help pull all of our loot across the vast planes. I even strapped in a time out car seat for those being naughty! I thought it was one step kinder than strapping them to the roof of the van. So I am putting up this post as a drivers beware - drive behind me at your own risk. Actually I think that we put enough super glue on to keep this sturdy for awhile, just kidding we also used a few screws.

Utah here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We will be starting with 2 vans, 2 adults, 7 kids and 2 dogs, it will be interesting to see if we get there with the same numbers.

Vincent's New Look

So we are leaving for Utah this week and I wanted to get haircuts for the dogs. Nala got a trim awhile ago but Vincent I always am hesitant about because his fur is so pretty. But I figure if I am going to be living with other people all summer I don't want to add to their pain with spreading Vincent fur all over because he is the type of dog that lays down and when he gets up there is an impression made of fur left behind only to clog up the heaviest vacuum. So I took him for a fur cut or whatever they call it. Anyway when the lady asked what I wanted I told her, to be fair, "to go to town," and go to town she did. Poor dog, his manhood or lack thereof is completely on display. She shaved him almost to the skin including his tail accept for the very end of it where she left a tuft. When he came home at first he pranced around like he was on parade, although with the new "furdoo" a rainbow collar would probably have been very appropriate. Poor Vinny now the girl dogs really stay away.

Starting Again!

I have no idea what I am doing. I have a blog on shutterfly also but I don't like how I can't put pictures in with the posts, well at least I could never figure out how to do it. So here I am starting on my old blog again hoping that I can figure it out this time. I just spent like an hour trying to put a family picture in the title and couldn't figure it out. Maybe I shouldn't be admitting to my blogging/computer incompetence but hey that just means that I have gotten past knowing how to turn the computer on - baby steps. So there you have it, when you are wanting to read about our adventures and misadventures come here and enjoy - you never know, my stories may make you feel better about your parenting. Have a super day.
