Record Time!!

I finished the hardest blanket I have ever made in record time. It was so hard because I had to untwist the yarn every row or so. It sucked but it was worth it and Toby had made me a box for the yarn that really helped. I started the end of December and my goal was the end of February and I finished it February 28th athankyouverymuch! (its all smushed together so that you say it really fast!!)
Sorry these pictures suck but its a good lookin blanket. My favorite part is that my toes don't pop out like most crochet blankets.

This thing is huge. I added about 43 more rows so that Toby could tuck his feet in.
I ran out of yarn like 10 times and bought all of the red yarn from Michael in a 50 mile radius from my apartment. Just to give you an idea it takes about 20 min to do a row. I love it and I definitely want to make another one to perfect this pattern.
Morgan didn't even have to help me that much this time.

Sleepover

I feel like like all my posts are about my dog. OH well!! HAHAHA



Jesse went to Reno to do some work, so we took Lady and had a little sleepover. It was really fun. I starting thinking how fun it would be to have 2 dogs!! I bet my parents are laughing after hearing that.










We live 2 blocks from the Sacramento Temple and they have a ton of property and most of it is like this park kind of place. The dogs love it. There are geese and deer and wild turkey. So they are running all over.

It's just beautiful there!!

Look at these things!!!

Lady loves to fetch tennis balls and Sadie loves to fetch Lady.

The Lake

There is a beautiful lake walking distance from our appartment in California. The dogs (our dog Sadie and Jesse's dog Lady) love going there to swim and they get to run around all the way there too.

The girls having a ball on the way to our spot.


Its so beautiful there. There is big meadow behind us where to dogs can play fetch and just run around to warm up between swimming sessions.

Toby at out favorite place.

Jesse found a 2X4 and the dogs love fetching it!! It's really funny.

Look at that team work.

Lady has a hard time stearing, so she will end up swimging in circles. Then when she finally makes to the shore she is 1/4 mile away so Jesse has to go find her and the 2X4. It's great, she tries so hard.

I LOVE how Lady jumps in the water. She does it every time and I can't get enought.

This is how Sadie gets in the water. I think its funny how Sadie will wait until Lady brings the 2X4 that close then jumps in to "help".
