Guess what? Bella is crate trained! FINALLY! If I say, 'go to your crate' so will go! And she no longer cries/barks when I leave. So that is great.
She is not completely trained though - she refuses to learn how to shake. And I will think she is house trained but then sometimes she sneaks off and is naughty! She is full grown now (i think) and has most of her shots. She is almost 5 months old so she will be able to be spayed once she is 6 months!
My friends Heather and Chuck are her 'godparents.' (sorry Catherine). She just loves them and she spends a lot of time at their apartment. They love her too!

my boys!
This was actually from a couple of weeks ago but I thought it was too cute! This is Camden, John and Nicholas in John's crib! Ashley and Camden were over for a play date and Nicholas was home from school. John had just woken up and Nicholas crawled in the crib and then Camden wanted to as well. Of course, I had to run and get my camera! Camden just loves baby John and he had so much fun with Nicholas this day too! They had a water balloon fight in the driveway! It was definitely a fun day! :-)

The memory of a good person is a blessing.
Proverb 10:7
It has been two months since you have been gone. I still feel like you are in Lexington and I just haven’t seen you for several months. I saw you in February and it would be normal for me to not see you again until this summer. But I can’t. And I can’t believe that you aren’t here.
I think of you when the sun shines.
I think of you every time I play with my puppy.
When I hear the Beatles, of course you are who comes to mind.
I hear your laugh when I watch your favorite television shows.
I feel as though you are sitting next to me as I watch ‘Little House on the Prairie.’
When I see any dogs, I think of your love for all animals.
I think of you every time I see the hair band on my wrist as it is meant as a remembrance of you.
Your paintings around my room bring a smile to my face.
The smile in your pictures is still contagious.
I have nothing but good memories of you.
You will not be forgotten by me. I have thought of you everyday since you have been gone. You have impacted me and my life a great deal. I had a dream of you walking along the beach with your long hair on a sunny day. Pangi, Meko and Pheonix were running by your side. I think that is how you are spending your days and it makes my heart smile.
laugh often and much;
to win the respect of the intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty;
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
to know that one life has breathed easier
because you lived here.
This is to have succeeded.

cook out
I had a very fun weekend!! I didn't really do anything on Friday. On Saturday my sweet friend Heather and I laid out by the pool and then I went over to the Joyners. We had a cook out with Ashley, David and Camden! It was the perfect weather for a cook out and the kids play so well together! Above is Claire, Camden and Ava. They practically entertained themselves all night! What a good picture! On Sunday I spent the afternoon by the pool again but it was a little cloudy. I had a very nice and relaxing weekend!
