....and they're off!!!

My girls went back to school yesterday

and I lost my helpers....with Carter and our

lab, Bodey, I really do count on the girls

helping a little everyday. But, they said

their first day of school went great and they

both really seem to like their teachers...

thank goodness!! Becca is in 8th grade this

year and is actually at the high school

since they consolidated the schools this year

it is now the junior high with 7th, 8th, and 9th.

Emily is now in 5th grade and at the

middle school which is now the intermediate

school with 4th, 5th, and 6th. Their were

quite a few glitches when we were signing

the girls up for school a couple of weeks ago

because of all the changes so hopefully all

has been worked out and it's smooth sailing!

Oh well, the girls are happy to be back with

their friends and as long as they're happy
then so am I!! Here are a couple photos that

I took of Becca and Emily in our front yard

before heading off to school yesterday morning.

And, a couple photos of Bodey looking oh so cute!

I haven't posted a photo of him in a

while so I just wanted to update that it has been

almost 2 months since he was driven to us from

a high kill shelter in Kentucky and he is doing

wonderfully!! One month after we had taken him
home he weighed 79 lbs. and as of last week he

is up to 87 lbs.!!! My mom even says that he has

a twinkle in his eye now that just wasn't there

before. Also, I just wanted to let you know that

we are no where near over feeding him, he is a

very BIG boy and the vet said that he could get

up to 90-100 lbs. We LOVE you Bodey boy!!

Alrighty, I think that's all for today.

Please make sure to check back tomorrow for

our Thoughts 2 Paper Blog Hop done Christmas

style!!! There will be prizes so you don't want to miss it!

Have a terrific Tuesday,

LOVES:) -Sarah
