Ghosts in Our House



So lately Britt and I have noticed a few things going missing from our kitchen. A couple weeks ago, the cheese I had been cutting up disappeared, a few days later, a whole package of hot dog buns. For a minute, I was thinking Brylie was sneaking off with stuff to make her own "gwill cheese sammiches", but she assured me she was not to blame. As Britt and I sat pointing fingers at ghosts, gremlins, and possibly Chucky, I noticed our new friend Zoe is almost as tall as the counter and has easy access and a great nose for sniffing out food. Last Sunday Britt and I decided to test out our new theory by leaving some more hot dog buns on the counter. Sure enough, we got home, no hot dog buns, but at least this time she left the wrapper on the floor. As soon as I picked up the wrapper, she bolted for her kennel and piled into the very back of it to try and hide. I think Ghosts would have been more fun, but props to Zoe for fooling us for so long. She really is a fun dog.


PS--Thats not us lynching Zoe for theft, but rather Brylie putting her princess veil on her then tying balloons to it. Zoe would probably have preferred a noose, but she's a great dog and plays very well with Bry.

4 Going On 15...













Little Brylie boo had her 4th birthday this past week. First off, I've got to say that this kid cleaned up like nobody I've ever seen at a birthday party. 16 people and twice that in presents, she couldn't have asked for more. Britt and I got her a bike, some clothes, and a couple more barbies (adding to the other 10,000 barbies in our house). The rest of the family that came pretty much chipped in and bought her Toys R Us. We all had a lot of fun and she had a great birthday! Thanks to all family and friends that came over.
