update on Annie

No Annie, you aren't allowed on the couch....oh well, you look so cute. We were cooking dinner one night and hadn't seen her for a few minutes started calling her name, Dan walked over to our family room, and this is what he found...I hope we do a little better job when we discipline our children.

Friday night we were playing in the backyard, this is the best picture I could get of her before our camera ran out of batteries. Yeah it's not a very good picture but oh well. She was going nuts! Running SO fast around in circles, she had Dan and I cracking up! If you look close you can see that she is in mid-stride. For a little dog she can really haul!

I love our backyard. We all still working on parts of it. We (as in my parents and us) put the mulch in around the grass last summer and we put more grass seed in the summer, its coming in ok. The rest of the grass looks great, lots of rain this summer and Dan has been fertilizing it quite a bit. Next spring we are going to get a few more trees to go along our back fence to get a little more privacy - eventually.

Ahhh, the joys and annoyances of dog ownership! Ruby does that crazy running thing too, and it's still so funny after three years of having her.

Love your backyard. It looks great. Our kids want a dog too. Some day...

I think its because its hotter than death here, but its really hard to make the grass green. I shall take a picture of what the previous tenants left for us to take care of... that way when we make the yard look nice, you won't think it was always that way. I'm glad you guys had a lot of rain. Everyone who has a green lawn here waters their lawn for at least an hour everyday... I'm behind.
