My Christmas gift from Andrew

All I wanted for Christmas this year is a dog.  I have always had a dog ever since I was born! When my family and I had to move from Colorado to Florida, we had to give our dog 'Taffy' away because it would have been too hot for her. So when we moved to Florida in October, all I wanted for that next Christmas was a dog.  On Thanksgiving day in 1995, my little Yorkiepoo, 'Cody', was born.  Cody is now 12 years old and I had moved out to Utah for school, so I had to leave him back at home with my Mom.  I dont think she would know what to do if I would have taken him with me!  It has been a few years since I have really had a dog, so just like 12 years ago, all I wanted for Christmas this year was a dog.  So Andrew, despite his wishes, bought a little 1 year old pure bred Cairn Terrier for my Christmas present.  'Mercedes' is the cutest thing in the world!  She likes to piddle on the floor when she gets too excited, but I am so happy to be able to have a little puppy to play with every day when I come home!!  There goes my Christmas!  And we still have a month to go!  

Little Mercedes!

'Cede May' as Grams calls her

We bought a Mac!!

Well, we decided to buy a new computer.  We have done some research on the Apple computers verses regular desktop PCs and have come to the conclusion that the iMacs are the way to go.  So easy to operate, it is a little different that Microsoft, but it sure is a lot easier and faster to maneuver around!  Defiantly a time saver.  So if you are thinking about buying a new computer, get a Mac, totally worth the money!  So now that I have a computer that is faster and more convenient, so maybe we can update and add more pictures more often!

Mt. Pleasant, UT September 23, 2007

We went down to Mt Pleasant for the weekend for Andrews 24th birthday! It is sure getting to be fall, it even snowed in the mountains Monday morning! These pictures were taken from our 4 wheeling trip up the canyon.



You can see the colors starting to turn! Beautiful maples!

Beautiful! It was nice and slippery on the wet leaves with the 4 wheelers! Good for muddin!

Love the colors in fall, but hate the cold weather!

There is Andrew, leaving me!

Flowers at Lagoon!!

The tree rings. We added pots with flowers in them instead of dirt! Turned out nice!

Bamberger fountain. According to the complements, people have said that this is the best it has ever looked!

Sky Ride poles, filled in nicely!

Front Enterance to the Park!
