Verona's New Puppies

When I got home from work today, I heard little meowing noises coming from Verona's crate. Oh Man... she was having babies!
(We thought she was going to have babies before Christmas and were disappointed when she didn't. Then just recently Carlos said Verona was acting pregnant.)
I noticed she had pooped so I let her out. When she went out the door, another baby fell out of her and onto the grass... WHAT THE! I had to pick it up and put it with the other ones. She had 8 puppies, but unfortunately 2 of them didn't make it.

Here is a close up of one of the little guys. These are pure German Shepherds... both parents are AKC registered and Verona's grandfather was "Best in Show" at the Eukanuba dog show several years ago.
And NO, you can't have one for free if you're family... these babies are $800 each... time to pay off some bills :-)

Carlos is also training a male German Shepherd puppy named "Zeus" for a co-worker. Eliseo is already calling him by his name... no sweetie, you can't keep him!

Resurrection Day Sunday

Dad & Mom went with us to Church on Sunday morning. We got there right on time and it was so crowded. We had to park in an overflow dirt parking lot and it was quite warm. We sat in a little dome shaped structure and watched the service on a big screen. It was comfortable and air conditioned.
After church we had Shakey's pizza, chicken & mojos. Then mom made some delicious dessert with strawberries, angel food cake, and whipped cream... MMmmm..

Then we hid some eggs in the front yard for Eliseo to find. He was a little tired because he just woke up from his nap, but he did find all the eggs.

HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY!

FIREPROOF PLOT SUMMARY:

Capt. Caleb Holt (Kirk Cameron) lives by the old firefighter's adage: Never leave your partner behind. At home, in the cooling embers of his marriage, he lives by his own rules. After seven years of marriage, Caleb and Catherine Holt have drifted so far apart that Catherine wishes she had never married.

As the couple prepares to enter divorce proceedings, Caleb's father challenges his son to commit to a 40-day experiment he calls "The Love Dare." Wondering if it's even worth the effort, Caleb agrees, but more for his father's sake than for his marriage.

While trying to stay true to his promise, Caleb becomes frustrated time and again. He finally asks his father, "How am I supposed to show love to somebody who constantly rejects me?" When his father explains that this is the love God shows to us, Caleb makes a life-changing commitment to love God.

With God's help, he begins to understand what it means to truly love his wife. But is it too late to fireproof his marriage? His job is to rescue others. Now Caleb Holt is ready to face his toughest job ever... rescuing his wife's heart.

Eliseo's Ouie

A little incident at Daycare

Yesterday Eliseo tripped and fell while playing outside. When I picked him up he had a bandaid on his upper lip. He didn't hurt his teeth at all which is good, but he does have a cut inside his upper lip. He was a little cranky that evening, but he's doing well.
