It's that time again...

So, an update is definitely in order and I plan to start working on this again - especially since things may be changing  very soon!

So much has happened since March, the last time I sat down and blogged here. Sometimes it is just hard to find the time to do it!


But we'll save the extended update for another time, here's a glimpse at our little foursome as it is today :)

It's been a while

So, a congrats is in order for me being a terrible blogger! The last two months have been crazy!!

The start of the semester took off with a bang--leaving little time for blogging. We spend so much time with the dogs, it makes me wonder what we got ourselves into! But, we love love love them.

On top of a crazy semester for both of us, we decided to move from our great little house on Stewart Ave to another great little house on Broadway. For those of you not so familiar with the Chico area...

 

The interior was just completely remodeled and have some great neighbors. We love our new location--super close to downtown, close to shops and restaurants, closer to friends, etc. Plus, we are saving money!
Moving in the middle of a semester wasn't exactly ideal, but we made it work and we are so excited to make some new memories here (at least until Kevin graduates).

Here's some recent pictures of our little furry friends

And of course, Happy 23rd Birthday to my close, yet far, friend Margaret who lives in Boston! I love you and I hope you are having such a wonderful, smiley day!!!

Yancy and Peanut in the movies

We made this little video to post on the Orland Town and Country Humane Society's Facebook  hoping that it would interest someone who might be considering adopting a small dog. Check it out!

Yancy and Peanut!!!

Meet Yancy (left in first picture) and Peanut (right).

These two boys are our new foster pups from the Orland Humane Society. Yancy had been at the shelter since September. He is a terrier mix, about 16 pounds, and kinda crazy. He had a broken leg when he was first found and brought to the shelter, but you wouldn't know it now! He runs and jumps like no other little dog I've seen.

Peanut came to the shelter later in 2010. He is a dachsund/pug mix. He's got a long body and a weiner dog snout, but big bulging Pug eyes. He is about 14 pounds and could use a little extra meat on his bones. He is very mellow and a total lap dog. The thing he loves the most: FOOD.

Don't be fooled by how close and cuddly the boys are in the pictures, the play fight as much as they can. Yancy is the instigator, but Peanut doesn't back down easy. They would probably both rather that the other wasn't here, but by fostering both we were able to give a large dog a pen to live in at the shelter. The shelter is as MAX capacity and cannot accept any more dogs :(

We've been going on nice long walks, but these boys wear each other out for the most part. Supposedly both were not potty-trained, but we haven't had an accident since the first day (Peanut hasn't had any!). They love walks, car rides, treats (dog food kibble) for going potty outside, and cuddling on the couch. Plus, they can both fit in Mia's big old crate--they sleep in there at night and while we are gone from the house.

So far, so good!
