It's Spring Break!

Stretch out and enjoy yourself... Spring Break has officially started!


Daisy and Mister G. are doing well... adjusting to one another little by little. Daisy is now getting more sleep during the day than she was when Mister G. first arrived, he has learned the balance of sleeping and playing.... Daisy is thankful for that!

It was sweet, last night when Stu and I were watching a movie, Daisy and G. were asleep on my legs... spooning (but Mister G. was the big spoon...AWK). 

Mister G. still barks like a girl... and he is possibly creating a deep hate among the neighbors...he will bark at ALL of the dogs that he comes across when we are outside. We are going to break him of this because the most unpleasant noise leaves his sweet little body.


Mister G. is not as sweet as he looks:

He pulls my hair because he thinks that it is a toy to play tug-a-war with
He jumped up on me today and his little claw drew blood from the side of my nose... :(
He killed Daisy's friend, "Little Red" and almost ate the squeaker out of his head.
Still doesn't listen very well
and still needs to learn his name....but on a happy note: doing better with the house training! 

oh, but Stu dropped him on his head yesterday!
...no wonder Mister G. is afraid of him... I would be too if Stu dropped me on my face 


As for spring break.... I have plans. They may not be the wild and crazy plans that come to mind when you hear "spring break", but the coming days will be productive for the up coming months. (Two months till graduation!!) I will be correcting past work in order for it to be photographed and developed into my design portfolio.. and of course working on my last studio project.... (i sure do like those run-on sentences.... :) ha!) I hope to get stu away from work this week so that we can go to Fredericksbrug for a day...to get away from life and enjoy some yummy wine under the Texas sunshine (when it get warm of course).

We went to Houston last weekend to see little Avonlea, the newest Smith. She was so sweet... we did take a few pictures but we have yet to upload them...soon. While we were there we were able to visit with the Weavers!! John and Allison always seem to be busy when we are in town but this time everything worked out and it was GREAT to see them. We shared a little wine and watched a few you-tube videos... they are going to be in town at the end of the month, we are looking forward to that! We stayed the night at Stu's Dad's where Daisy and Mister G. played with Roscoe and the dog that lives next door. Mister G. ran all over the yard! We played a little basketball with Gene ( I was much better than Stu... and I am a girl!).  Then after a little lunch we headed home... it was a nice little break from the world.

Tonight we have been sitting at our favorite little coffee shop up the street from the apartments.... yummy (chocolate covered grahams....)! I did a little bit of homework and Stu worked on some design stuff....a productive little Saturday night for the Smiths.... 

more later!
