Have You Missed Devil Dog?

I know I haven't posted lately about Devil Dog, but trust me...she has been busy!
Let's start with her ball playing! Notice the baseball? My boys don't play baseball (but the neighbor's boy does).

Now let's move on to the craters she dug all over the yard. To be fair though, the other dogs have helped quite a bit.

Remember Devil Dog and the greenhouse? Well, she moved on to the irrigation system that Mr. Plantfreak set up. We had to remove the entire thing!

This is our kitten Jasper I found in the woods with DD covered in slobber and mud. He took three days to recuperate. DD said she was just playing. Hmph!

Here is the first shoe DD brought home. I don't even know where there is a little girl around here. DD is such a dang thief!

And yet another one! Not to mention the men's sandal that I found down the driveway. My friend Priscilla says I should put out a lost and found box at the end of the driveway. Good idea but then they will know who took their stuff. DD just might get herself shot one of these days!

Guilty Pleasures

My guilty pleasures are E Online for celebrity gossip, and two reality shows... Design Star and Project Runway. I absoluely love watching other peoples creativity!

Last night was the second night of Project Runway and the talent is amazing! Even the people they sent home were really good, just a little bizarre. Last night, the designers had to design a maternity outfit for a celebrity (Rebecca Romjin). Malvin, who was sent home, took the concept of fertility to the avian route. He designed a top that alluded to a mother hen and resulting egg. Sorry, I couldn't find a picture. Poor Malvin, the golden rule is "Never make a pregnant woman feel like a chicken with an egg!"

Needless to say the egg idea did not go over well with a panel of all women judges, and Malvin seemed stunned to be eliminated. Too bad, I would like to see what else he can do.

First Day Of School

Hooray! Another year of aggravation! Cody started early this year too. I bought basic supplies for him weeks ago to get ahead of the game, only to have him inform me he did not want the fancy binder I bought him. He refused to take it to school, and instead went with no paper, just a pen. So he rode the bus home instead of me picking him up. He could have told me he didn't like the binder 3 weeks ago, instead he waits until the day of school. Turns out he needed a ton of other things for each teacher...I hate school supply lists!

Down At The River

Grandpa Sute sent me these pictures before the big computer crash.
It's Hannah, Rudy, and Abbey fetching a stick at the river.
I'm surprised that they can all fit on there.

Can't tell who is who in this picture.
It sure seems to me that Abbey has become one of the family! Look at her smile!

Squint Your Eyes....

...and you won't see all the mistakes on my cake! Like I said before, I have been hooked on Ace of Cakes and Amazing Wedding Cakes. They make it look so easy, but brother, it ain't. Of course I was just slapping it together instead of planning it out and measuring everything. I had the best time though!
The top part was decorated for my friend Karen. Like me, she loves the colors turquoise and brown.


The bottom part was for my friend Chantelle, who is partial to seashells and anything beach themed.
Like I said, squint your eyes and look and it looks like a pretty good job!

Oh Happy Day!

I finally got my crack, er...computer back!!!!!! I picked it up yesterday and wouldn't you know it...the service provider had a cable cut by accident and there was no internet until today. The moniter is still screwed up but I'm using the moniter from my old computer and I'm thrilled to be back in the blog world and the cyber world. I missed ya'll too.

I will say this though, it's amazing what you can find to do when the computer is gone and there is absolutely nothiung on TV!

I have to work the next three days but I will post the cake I made for some friends. I've become addicted to Ace Of Cakes and Amazing Wedding Cakes. I had to try!
