Eddie...
This is Eddie, our new Yorkie! Isn't he cute? (I am discovering that dogs are not the easiest to photograph!) He is teeny - the picture doesn't really show how teeny he is. He fits into both of my hands. We picked him up from Provo yesterday. He is such a good, cuddly doggie! He slept in his doggie carrier all night long. On the other hand, I barely slept a wink because I was afraid he was cold, afraid he was going to die and my kids were going to be devastated, afraid of...who knows what. Can you say ANXIETY??

When I got him out of his carrier this morning, he had done his "business" all over the towel I had put in there for him and it was so GROSS! I don't know if I'm ready to potty train TWO kids! But oh well. I take him outside like every ten minutes because I'm so grossed out. Chance keeps asking, "Is this a dream, or do we really have a dog?" We have wanted a dog for a long time, so we are all very excited! We have not had a dog because I am allergic to them, but supposedly Yorkies are good dogs for allergy-prone folk like me to have. However, that does not mean that I have not had to take an Allegra like every 6 hours!

It's dangerous for me to have a blog, because I can voice my opinion for the world to hear! Here's my recent "two cents" -

I've heard that the airlines are considering weighing passengers in order to determine the price of their airline tickets. I read this on ksl.com a couple of weeks ago, and people were writing in and having an absolute fit! My question is this - what's the big deal? I think it's a great idea, mostly because I would love to have to pay less to have my kids fly on a plane. I've always thought it was weird that they didn't have kid fares, and that babies had to pay for a "seat" rather than just a "baby" fare. I'm sure if the airlines began a policy such as this, they probably wouldn't do it pound-for-pound, but probably like less than 50 pounds would $x, 51 to 100 pounds would be $x, etc. Don't you think that's a good idea? I think it's awesome! I think a kid takes up way less space than an adult, therefore a kid takes less gas to fly them somewhere, and shouldn't have to pay as much. People find this discriminatory, but I happen to think it's cool! What do you think?

A blog tribute to my hubby on Father's Day.

Cute then...And cute now!

Love ya! Happy Father's Day! Thanks for being such a great dad and husband.

At the risk of being beaten senseless by my sister, I decided to go ahead and post this cute pic of her and her daughter. Mylee looked and danced just like a little "snow fairy" at her dance recital! Great job, Mylee! We love you guys!
PS, don't be surprised if this post suddenly comes up missing after she sees it! She's ruthless when it comes to pictures!

Okay, ya'll have gotta go see Kung Fu Panda! I thought it was hillarious. I took Chance on a "date" to go see it, and and we were both laughing through the entire movie. I could relate a little too well to the panda, Po. The only way to get him to move was to entice him with food! And, I loved that he was always out of breath after climbing the stairs! Too funny. Go see it.

YAHOO! I'm a blogger! I never thought I would blog, but here I am.

I decided to start this blog to show a few of the photos I've been working on lately. I have become addicted to Photoshop and making "good" pictures "better". I have had a few people ask to see some things I've been working on, so I decided to post them here rather than e-mail. I'll try to post some other photos later on.

So, is that how you do it? Blog? How did I do? :)
