Egg fun, watch out for the Easter Bunny


Hope you all had a nice Easter. I had a nice time Saturday morning watching Alix at her first Easter egg hunt. Her Great-Grandma has been training her on what to do so she looked like a pro Saturday. :)

Saturday evening we had a very nice dinner at my parents' house. Mom is a great cook! Thanks Mom. Alix likes pie!





Alix is really growing up fast. I still have a hard time grasping the fact that she can walk :) She's really a lot of fun to be around too. Can't wait until she's old enough to go to agility trials with Aunt Kristie.

Hope you enjoy the pics :)

Thunderstorms & Knitting 4/5/09

It's been a stormy day today. I got caught in the pouring rain trying to cut my backyard. So I headed into the house and tried to get some knitting done while 2 of my girlz vied for lap space. Cosmo won out only because she's small enough. Poor Sadie is too big for that :) Cosmo and Sadie are super scared of loud noises, which can ruin a good thunderstorm or fireworks.
I am knitting a Northern Lights Wrap. I ordered this kit for my upcoming cruise to Alaska. It is knit with Lion Brand Moonlight Mohair in Rain Forest and Trellis.
Here is a picture. I am starting to really make a dent in the project.



Yep, I'm going on my first cruise soon. Heading to Alaska and can't wait!! The trip is really falling into place. I even have a pet-sitter all lined up. She has met the "Pack and Pride" and didn't run away screaming :) Cosmo will be going to stay with our agility instructor for the week that I'm gone. I can't wait to see how much Cosmo enjoys her week of agility camp. :) I'm sure all the mules will enjoy their week's vacation from me. I am super excited about the trip. Don't worry I have the cameras ready for the trip.

Louisville Cluster

I've been a bad blogger. Just too busy doing other stuff instead of blogging. The good news is that we've been having fun. Brindi and Cosmo and I are having a great time in agility. Seems like I learn something new about them every time we run. This really is a learning experience. Sadie is enjoying her Obedience II class. She is pretty quick :) And Darby is still a frisbee maniac. The neighbors walking by the house are entertained when she and I are out playing. She's nuts ;)

A friend and I went to the Louisville Cluster on March 12th. The cluster is a dog confirmation, obedience, and agility trial. Oh, and vendors galore! There was just about everything a dog owner would want and that place. I enjoyed the shopping a LOT! We also got to see some of our hometown agility buds run. It was a great day!

Here are a few pics from the day.
These are some of our agility buds.

This is Pepper Ann.

And her "little" sister Cayenne.


I am also an official member of the Bumble fan club :) Not a Bumble stalker at all!



And I just had to take these dogs pictures. :)




Here is a picture of Brindi showing off my shopping treasures.
