Our little and sweet celebrations....

As a Freshman this year...and a very dedicated Athlete...Kali has to work really hard on Academics. Along with being an athlete, and keeping a great social teen life (which is full steam at this point, party invites just about every weekend). It can be tough. She works hard at every thing she does. Her commitment pays. She's got the strength and the courage to pull through. We are so proud of her. As most of you know...this isn't easy. Especially coming home from games at 6pm to eat dinner, study and get ready to do it at 6am all over again. Cheers Miss. Kali! You rock it with Awesome-sauce! I love this picture. She's a dedicated person to herself. And to me...that's all that matters. Keeping herself a priority to prove what she wants in life. It's all about the commitment. -

And our other little celebration was Bucks' 2nd Birthday. He turned 2 on the 24th. We celebrated with a little steak for him, and a few gifts too. I love this picture of him. Taken Mothers Day weekend 2010, boating, and one of my favorite weekends ever. It was just one of those weekends....nothing faltered. It was all too perfect.

We were silly with his wrap. He's only concerned about his new chew toy.

The moment they were opened...he looked at all of us, and immediately ran into Kris' room and stashed it in a box. Then came back to get another and stashed in Kali's closet. So funny. He goes back later I guess to play and chew. The life of a little dog.

Happy Birthday little Bucksie. We love you. And today?...He got fixed. On the way home from Vet as I type with his daddy. It's gonna be a long night. The joy of owning a dog. Lessons in life for Kris. Me? I'm off to dinner with my love...and Miss. Kali is off to a Birthday party.
