It's hard to say goodbye

Kisses and loves goodbye!

It was hard to make this decision but since Beebs keeps getting out of the house and not coming back, we figured it was time to find him a new home. For those of you who don't know Beebs plows the kids over to get out and the dog catcher has to bring him home. He has been out several times in the last few months, but we have been able to catch him. The last two times we have had to pay to get him out of puppy jail. It was hard for all of us. Jason gave Beebs to me for my birthday 4 months after we were married 7 1/2 years ago and the kids do not know life without him. We found him a new home with my brother Jared were there are no kids so he won't be let out and Jared and Chris spoil him. He gets walks every day, new toys and lots of attention. Thanks Jared for loving Beebs as much as we do. It breaks my heart that I wont's see him wagging his tail for loves when I get home!! We love you Beebs!!

It was a long way down!

Box Canyon Falls

We went to Box Canyon Falls it was amazing!! Jason visited there a few times when he was a kid and was happy to take us on the hike! I had to laugh as we were climbing the stairs to the top Zack didn't even make it half way up and turned around and said to Jason "Daddy I am so tired can you carry me?" I didn't tell anyone but I wanted to be carried too! It was tough in some parts, but we all made it on our own I am so proud of the kids they did great!

The beginning of the hike

There were squirrels and chipmunks everywhere! So cute!

Daddy leading the way!

Can you believe this dog???

We all went to Ouray Colorado on Tuesday and as we were walking down the street we saw this HUGE boxer in the back of this man's car. Did I mention he was HUGE??!! Well we had to stop and take a look, after all he reminded us of our very own Beebs!! He really thought Zackery was sweet so he slobbered all over his face a couple of times! I love boxers they are my favorite and this dog was full bread boxer, he kid of reminded me of a St Bernard! His name was Oliver so we took a break to love him a bit then continues shopping!! He was so sweet!

Swimming again!!

This time it was warm enough for the parents to participate!
