Meet Mr. Bo-Jangles, our new Chorkie!

We got Bojangles on March 12th. He is a Chorkie- his dad is a Yorkie and his mom a Chihuahua. We named him Bojangles because it looks like he is dancing when he walks :-) He was only 2.8lbs at his 1st appt. At his last appt (4/23/09), he was up to 5.4lbs! They don't expect him to get much bigger :-) Dottie loves him and has took right to the roll as his new momma. He loves playing with Chris and Dylan but seems most attached to me!

Baseball

Dylan is playing baseball for the Cardinals team this year! He has a great coach and his team looks strong! We have a long season ahead of us and we started it with a win! Go Dylan! Play Ball!

Grandma Linnie's Funeral

Today we attended both Aunt Bonnie's and Grandma Linnie's funerals. All of Chris' family was there, even the ones from Florida and from Las Vegas. Dylan attended the funerals as well and he amazed me with how well behaved and "grown-up like" he was. I know his great-grandma Linnie was proud of him.

Grandma Linnie

This afternoon we found out that Chris' great-aunt Bonnie (his mom's mom's sister) passed away. A couple hours later, we got the call that Grandma Linnie (his mom's mom) also passed away. Since both women were in Hot Springs, we will be going there this weekend to attend both funerals. Aunt Bonnie's will be at 10:30 on Saturday morning and Grandma's will be at 2:30 the same day.

Chris will leave 1st thing in the morning so that he can be with his mom and family. Dylan and I will leave Friday after school and after his AWANA practice (the competition is on the 14th).

Dylan's Birthday Ride

Dylan's 8th Birthday!

Dylan had a great 8th birthday celebration- which lasted 4 days! Thursday night we had dinner and cake at Memaw's house. Friday night we had 9 friends over for his party and 4 of the boys stayed the night. Dylan wanted a camp out but it was so cold outside that we had to improvise! Saturday, we had lunch with Granny and Grandpa at BurgerKing (birthday boy's choice ofcourse). After that we took Dylan to meet up with some more friends and go ride our 4 wheelers. Sunday afternoon we had yet another party at Nana's and G-daddy's house!

Basketball

Well the 08-09 basketball season has come to an end. It wasn't a winning season but the kids didn't seem to care because they had a lot of fun (which is the point at this age). Dylan had his last game this morning and he made 2 baskets!

Before the trophy party, we had to make a quick stop to go sign up for baseball. Yep, its that time already! He has evaluations on 2/21 (weather premitting).
