Happy Birthday Rhonda!

Tomorrow...March 27th is my big sister, Rhonda's birthday. I don't get to talk to her as much as I'd like to but I wanted to wish her a happy birthday! I have very fond memories of growing up with Rhonda. We were the only 2 girls so we shared a room till she got married. Rhonda is probably the nicest, sweetest, Godliest, kindest and gentlest person I know. She has a wonderful husband and 6 beautiful kids. Rhonda is a wonderful example to me and to others. I'm proud to be her little sister and I wish I could be alot more like her. This is silly but last night Sam and I were on a walk and we passed a house that brought back a funny memory. Rhonda and I were walking to school and 2 dogs came out of the house and started chasing us. Like typical little girls we screamed and ran away. As were were running I lost my flip flop and started crying cause I didn't want the dog to steal it. So Rhonda being the sweetheart she is, even at that young age, bravely went back and got my flip flop!! I will never forget that!! I love you very much Rhonda and hope your birthday is wonderful!!!
Oh. And I can't finish this post without posting a beautiful picture (or 2) of you!!

Hello to all! :)

I had alot of fun today!! I got to sleep in, first of all, which was WONDERFUL!!!! Then I went shopping with my sis-in-law, Christina and the kids. We always have such a good time when we go out. And I got a really pretty pink spring jacket at Sears which I was really excited about cause pink and purple are my favorite colors plus I've been wearing Sam's jacket and lets just face it...that's not real attractive so I decided I wanted to look like a lady!! :)
Then after we got home, Sam and I went out on a date. We went to Red Lobster and it was delicious!! Better yet...it was free cause we had a gift card!! It was yummy!!! Then we went to Value City to look at dining room tables and the couches just to get ideas. And we ran into Ben and Claire there! So that was neat!!
Okay...I'd better stop rambling...plus Mogley is outside barking at something...probably that stinkin black cat that sit's just outside his reach and terrorizes him!!! lol!! Better go rescue the Mogster!!!

It's Sunday afternoon and I have off tomorrow. What a wonderful feeling!! :) I got to spend the whole day with Sam yesterday working for the fire hall and we just had alot of fun. We were gonna be gone all day till late so we dropped Mogley off at his "babysitters"! There is a sweet older couple in the fire company who I've known most of my life...they live just a couple doors down from where I grew up and they love Mogley so much. Every time they see us they ask about him and tell us if we ever need a babysitter to let them know. So we took them up on it and he did so well!! They have dogs and cats and he just had so much fun with them!! We were glad he was happy!!! It was really hard though. I cried after we dropped him off!! What a wreck I was!! lol!! What can I say...he's our baby!!! But he's home now. He was happy to see me when I went and picked him up. So I was glad!
April 6th I start my EMT classes for the fire company. I'm really excited about it. Nervous but very very very excited!! This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Now I just pray that I can do it! I'm such a wimp but I've been to car accidents and all kinds of calls for first aid and I've done okay so far so we shall see!!
Hope everyone has a great week!! Spring is here!! (according to the calender anyways! We'll see!!!)

Dogs! Can't live with them....can't live without them!!!!

Just wanted to pop on and say hi to my peeps! :) I really don't have anything to write about but I don't want my blog to get shut down cause I didn't write anything for a while! (does that even happen?!)
Anyway...it's the weekend here. The weather has been in the 50's the past few days...hallelujah!!!! Hopefully we are done with snow. This was a loooong loooong winter! I'm itching to get my summer clothes out again...they are so much cuter than big baggy hooded sweatshirts (which... is basically what I wear all winter long!!)
I got a story to tell...normally when Sam and I leave we put Mogley in his crate for obvious reasons. Well yesterday I decided to leave him out when I went to work. I was only working a couple hours so I figured he'd be okay on his own. (little did I know!!!) I took him for a walk in the morning to make sure he didn't have to go potty or anything. WELL........I got home from work and as soon as I walked in the door he greeted me as he always does but then he got a very guilty look on his face so I knew he did something. Uh oh! come to find out....he had shredded the top of our leather couch...all we can figure is he was trying to get to the mailman cause it was right next to our mail slot. Oooh I was soooo mad!!!! Then to top it off...he pooped ELEVEN poops on my living room floor!!! Poor Sam...I was quite upset and after a bad day at work I did not need that!! I called Sam crying!! (what an emotional mess!!!lol) So needless to say...Mogley will continue to be in his crate when we leave. He failed the test!! Boy oh boy!!! Good thing he's so cute!! I'm telling you!! We could not stay mad for long!! Grrr!!!
Alright. I'm gonna sign off but I just wanted to say hi! Hope everyone is doing well!!!
