Derek Loves Lego's and Life


Derek can play with Lego's forever. He really stays focused and he is much calmer when he is concentrating. Another thing that he likes right now is watching the new wildlife series, Life on the Discovery channel.

This is a picture of Derek sitting at the breakfast table building one of his favorite Lego's....the SpongeBob Mobile!!!

Helping out at the Galleria Festival




Well we took our new puppy out in public for the first time this weekend. Maile, Hurley, Derek, and I went and joined Cecile, Taylor, Whitney, and Parker at the event that Cecile was working at for Dogadillo Dog Boutique. As you can see, they drew a crowd of folks all the time.

The weather was great after it has been raining what seems like forever.

We Have a New Member of the Family!!!


Well, we went to Oklahoma and rescued a 2-pound yorkie who needed a loving mother...hence Cecile. Pictured here in front of her new brother, Hurley, she is about 5 months old, is very fraile (seems to have neck and back leg issues and has a real tough time eating and such). She is very, very cute and we have decided to name her Maile (pronounced My-Lee) after the girlfriend of Elvis Presley in the movie, Blue Hawaii.

We will be taking her to the vet tomorrow and get her checked out. Her hair was severely greasy and matted up, so she will have to get a very short haircut. In this picture she just had her second bath and a trim up so we can see her cute eyes and face.

Hurley is adjusting slowly to having someone else run the house but we are sure that both of them will run the house in the end.
