"Casted"


Our puppy is a 3-legged gimp now. It's funny to watch her "walk". Poor puppy.

Our Clutzy Puppy


Well, here's an update on our little pup.

Last weekend Perry was changing oil on his dirtbikes and had the dog with him. She was keeping her distance for much of the time, but when a pan of oil was set down, she had to explore it. A couple of gulps later, Perry scooped her up and began to wash out her mouth and nose. Then he called his aunt, Terri, and she saved the day by telling him to soak bread in hydrogen peroxide. That made Izzy puke and thus getting the oil out of her system. She napped for an hour after that, but the next day, she was back to normal - jumping and nipping and being a puppy.

So, last night, as if she hadn't had enough fun with the oil, lil Isabel decided to fall off her kennel and break her leg. I was in the bathroom getting ready for bed when I heard the yelping. I asked Perry what was going on and he said, "Oh, she just fell and broke her leg." I thot he was kidding. Turns out, Perry took the day off work and took the dog in for an x-ray, and sure enough, her leg was broken (see picture). Bummer. Guess we won't take her for any long walks real soon.

We're learning a lot tho, just by having a puppy in the house.

Perry's 25th Birthday Party



We had a great time at Perry's 25th birthday party. My family was there along with Perry's brother, Brady, and Brady's girlfriend, Brittany.
We had a little too much fun with the party "blowers"! Ahh, good times, great laughs.
Perry was the one taking the picture, so we don't get to see the birthday boy here, but I'm sure he'll be in more pictures later.

We're Here!

Well, we finally made it to the blogging world. I figured, since we had a few things to share with others, we might as well share it via the computer. Everyone is using the internet so much, it's a great way to stay in touch or keep updated. So, here we are, among the many. We hope our info is a joy to all of you.

New Pup




She was too cute and the deal was just too good. So, we added another member to our family of 2 - we are now 3!
Isabel is the name, pooping is the game. Unfortunately, this first week has been a doozy for lil Izzy and for Perry too (he's been off work and the main one to care for her). But I think we'll make it. She is just a puppy still, there's time for learning.
