Beyond Spoiled

Last night we had spaghetti for dinner...Tortilla's favorite. So of coures the good Momma that I am I made sure there were leftovers for the pups. Sweet little piggy Mylee was so happy & ate hers right up. And Tortilla? No. Of course not. It has to be W-A-R-M pasta. She refuses to eat cold pasta of any sort. Where did this dog come from??? So...I warmed it up in the microwave for a few seconds & voila! Miss Rainbow gobbled it right up.

'Children' are so demanding...aren't they????

Notice how Mylee's plate is nearly clean? And Tortilla is like just sniffing at the pasta? *rolling my eyes*


In the microwave for puppy it goes!


Mmmmm....much better!


And here is Mylee's plate licked CLEAN!


So clean that I bet you can't tell which plate was Mylee's & which plate I pulled out of the cabinet just for the comparison!

Pre-Thanksgiving 2010


*Missing Aunt Karen & Serge in the pic*

Fall Family Pics

It was gorgeous here on Saturday, perfect weather for some last minute fall pics before all the leaves have fallen for the season.







What a treat! Uncle Bobby was in town so he got in on the photo op.

Mylee's Special Visit

Sunday we took a ride to visit Mylee's foster parents. We try to get together at least once a year so that Ellyn & Rob can see how their old friend Mylee is doing. (Click here for last years visit). Usually I just take Mylee so that she has a special day all to herself...this year John, Marnie & Tortilla all joined in. It was awesome- like our own private doggie park but better because we knew all of the dogs temperments & behaviors so we knew the combination of everyone would be safe. I love going there- seeing how happy it makes Mylee makes me smile. Click here to watch all the dogs playing!











After our visit Miss M went home & played with her new stuffed animal Ellyn gave her. How sweet was that?


T-Day Sampling 2nd Annual Trip

This past Saturday the Guadagno family made our way to the Fresh Market Thanksgiving Day Sampling. John & I hit it last year (click here for a refresher) and why not go again for a free "lunch"? We had shrimp, salmon on toast, cheese & crackers, turkey,ham,roast beef,mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, vevet cake, pecan pie and washed it all down with some warm apple cider. Hello! And it's all bite size portions so you're not technically pigging out. Can ya beat that?
Oh! Annnnd...a couple complimented us on our "gorgeous baby". Tee hee hee.

Halloween

For Halloween Marnie, Tortilla, Mylee & myself went up to Mom and Dad's for the day. We even ventured up to see the Yearwood/Schloicka clan and then over to Alice & Fred's house (Brian's parents) for some trick or treating! Here's a pic of Robyn, Maddie, Marnie & Kaelyn in their great costumes!

Mischief Night

Saturday night was Mischief Night! I totally forgot until I was up in Marnie's room rocking her to sleep when I saw 5 kids walk down the street totally dressed in black. Luckily I've been keeping all the lights on outside while John is away (deters robbers & other bad guys, right?). Looks like it worked!

This is the house at the end of our street:


These are the houses at the beginning of our street:


And here is what they did to our property:


Ha! Just a little balled up toilet paper in the mailbox?? AND...the best part? It wasn't used!

I actually laughed when I opened the mailbox.

Mr. Fix-It

Marnie & I hit a tag sale on Friday and since John wasn't with us we were free to buy whatever we wanted! Usually he's the Tag Sale Nazi and I would normally hear at least once "Amy, we don't need that." Ugh! What fun is that?!! So Marnie & both agreed it would be OK to buy Jack something that we found..that we wouldn't get in trouble since it wasn't going to be taking up space in our house/garage/attic or basement!

So check out the cool workbench we scored for Jack!





They say "Safety First" but really...in Marnie's world it's "Milky First, Safety Second"
