Jaxson's obssession

Larry bought the dogs these squeaky, bouncy balls while I was gone to Phoenix and Jaxson is now obsessed with them. They are cute, one is a frog and the other an elephant. Thanks to our friend, Cary who taught Jaxson how to play fetch...Thanks Cary! This picture is the only time we were not playing! and as you can see he is "guarding" his new toys! He loves to squeak them when he returns to you, it's squeak, squeak, bark, bark (translation: Mommy, throw my ball, please!) at least he is polite about it, right! My only issue with this game is when he plays alone and it goes under the couch! He can't reach it and is insistent upon Mommy getting his ball back, he will bark until I do! I have tried to stuff blankets under the couch, but he seems to find it funny to dig at the blanket until the ball goes back under the couch! Stop the madness! But I love his little personality and at least he is active!

Jamaica me crazy!

Here is an overview of our fun time on the Carnival Destiny Cruise ship! We ventured with 4 other friends to Ocho Rios, Jamaica for some zip lining and tubing. Then we were off to Grand Cayman where we saw some huge fish as we snorkeled off the beach. We had lots of fun on the ship relaxing, dancing, playing bingo, karaoke, playing battle of the sexes (where the girls dominated!!!!), and of course eating! Larry loved the self serve soft serve yogurt machine! And I loved the chocolate dipped strawberries! YUMMY!!!

So you think you can dance!

Arthur and I took a dance class on the cruise! It was a fun little dance and I tried to help Arthur...but some boys need more guidance!

Happy Birthday, Katy!

Larry and I wish Katy a very Happy 3rd Birthday! We made her this sign and wanted her to know we love her!

My Hot Dogs

We tried to dress Jaxson and Piper up like little hot dogs, neither of them wanted to be in the suit or wanted their picture taken! We tried and they were very cute for the 30 seconds they we in the costume! Here is the picture taking attempt!

Carving Pooh!

We decided on Winnie the Pooh! Here we are carving away... He actually turned out pretty good and was so cute when he was all lit up! It's a good thing I love to clean out all the gooey stuff, cuz Larry hates it! He was much better at cutting all the detail! What a team we are!

Pumpkin patch

Larry and I attempted the pumpkin patch again this year, only to find the biggest pumpkin we could find and this is what we found...Now what do we turn it into?

Kaylee and Cooper

Kaylee came to visit Cooper in July! They seem to have a bond and he loves that little girl. Larry loved sending Kaylee down the slide at our friends house, as she splashed into the pool below!
