DA BUZZ

Guess what my sis got for Christmas? A Great Dane puppy!!! His name is BUZZ. He's so cute and we all love him! He is deaf, and that takes some getting used to, but Lane's been working on training him to hand signals and he's getting good at it! Here's some pictures...

Check out those blue eyes!!!:D

Lane and Buzz

How cute!!!!

Oh, and listen to this funny conversation I had with 4 yo Mayf while in the kitchen recently...

Mayf: "What's this?"

Me: "Glass cleaner"

Mayf: "What does it say on it?"

Me: "Um, 'Glass Cleaner' "

Mayf: "Oh. To clean glass?"

Me: "Yep!"

Mayf: "Oh... Meg?"

Me: "Yeah?"

Mayf: "Can I clean some glass?"

Me: "Um... sure!" I raised a brow and showed him how to clean to sliding glass door.

After awhile Mayf came back. "All done!"

"Good job! Here, put the glass cleaner in this cabinet."

He did. Then said, "Meg?"

"Hmmm?"

"Can I get it back out and clean some more glass? The other side is still dirty."

"Well, sure!" I get it back out and give it back. After awhile he comes back. I say, "You done?"

Mayf: "Yup." He puts the bottle back in the cabinet.

Me: "Does it look good?"

Mayf: "Nope. The Glass Cleaner's got all gone before I was done."

Me: "Oh."

The birds twitter for about two minutes.

Mayf: "Meg?"

Me: "Yeah?"

Mayf: "Can I help you make cookies?"

Me: "Sure."

I made this picture of him recently... it totally matches his little personality! Han Solo all the way!!!:P

A Post About Current Life

VERSE OF THE DAY: Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Matthew 6:20

"They knocked out all our communications..." But they're back!!!!!!! Internet and phone are BACK!!!!!! I'm so happy! (But I miss Air 1) I missed everybody!!! Now I shall try to give you an update on CO life:

• Dillardfamily came to help us unload and Grandma and Grandpa T came to help out too. Lucy ate a grasshopper during this time period. Yuck! Got it all on film! Grandpa did some stuff like put in a vanity and fix the plumbing on the sink. Before they left...
• My Mom's Grandad passed away and went to heaven:( Mom and Dad went to the funeral. While they were gone...
• Captain Jack Sparrow the kitten died unexpectedly. We buried him by a creek near our backyard. Trixie's great though.
• We got a new cool dishwasher, fridge, oven, and stove the other day!!!! Awesome!!!
• Unpacking is going well. The place looks like a house, just a real messy one!!! Couldn't find all my clothes for awhile, which was quite inconvenient when we had....
• SNOW!!!!!!!!!!! About an inch of it last week! But I didn't get to play around much cuz I was wearing my only and best pants, so Mom and I went to...
• GOODWILL and SAVERS!!!!!!! Wonderfulwonderful thrift stores that I got some cute jeans at! SAVERS even had cool swords for halloween. They weren't strong enough for my taste though.
• Speaking of swords, found my broken Prophetess and am fixing her to lay her away in retirement forever:(
• Visited a new church called RED ROCKS BAPTIST CHURCH and it was pretty good!! Our next door neighbor's a pastor there.
• We live on a two culdesack street that dead ends into a school playground. All ours!
• My iPod is wonderful!:D

Leaving Farm Family - With Some NEW Family!

VERSE OF THE DAY: The true bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world. John 6:33

Grandpa said I need to post more, and including the riotous comments on this thing maybe I do. :P Now at least I have something worth posting about!

We were about to leave and Lucy goes into the feed barn and comes out yelling, "Mama Cat has KITTENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Gasp!!!! Everybody runs over and sure enough, 5 little fuzzballs! But the gray and black Captain Jack Sparrow and the brownish grayish blackish little princess Trixie were favorites. Grandpa said we could keep them if Dad said and Dad agreed! YEA!!!!!!!! We said goodbye to Nana, Gram, Grandpa, Lady, Pinwheel, Rusty, the rest of the kitties, and the grasshoppers (yes, really. Jessboy has sentimental attachments:P) It was sad to say goodbye to all the farm except the bugs. We took the kittens in a raccoon trap, cageish thing to Grandma and Grandpa Tagg's house. This morning we fed them milk out of little medicine droppers. They can sit in one cupped hand, have big sweet blue eyes, meow little meows, and are very fuzzy! Jack is the troublesome, topsy-turvy one that likes to walk around outside, while Little Trix would rather snuggle up in a box and sleep. I'll post pictures as soon as we take some. We sleep here tonight and and tomorrow we take the drive to Colorado!!! Pray!
