Looking back I realized I didn't blog about my Grandma Judy passing away in September. And I'm pretty sure I didn't take any pictures. Sad. My sisters took pictures that I'll have to steal and post. I was so happy for Grandma, she had been a widow for over 25 years. It was time. But it was still hard to say goodbye. She was my last living grandparent, and such a special woman.
I also noticed I didn't blog about our dog Tugger that we adopted. He's a yellow lab, 3.5 years old. His family was moving into an apartment and couldn't bring him so we adopted him. What drew us to him was that he was older (potty trained) and lazy. We like the lazy. Our last dog was so insanely hyper we just couldn't keep up with him. My only complaint about Tugger is that he's really hairy, but he can't help that. I just vacuum a lot more... and don't wear fleece around him ever. He is big, but Randy wanted a big dog that he could take fishing. He hates the little yappers. The kids absolutely love Tugger. Macey's highlight of coming home from school everyday is opening the door to a VERY excited Tugs. He is part of the family, hair and all. He has some awesome tricks that make up for his hairiness and he also puts up with my constant teasing, so he's a keeper. This picture is totally out of focus, but he's still cute.
And lastly, Thanksgiving 2011. We spent that at Randy's parent's house. Again, no pictures. My poor kids are going to ask me what we did with our lives these last couple of years and I will yell I WAS IN SCHOOL AND STRESSED OUT OF MY MIND, LAY OFF ME. ;) I am always really bad at taking pictures when we go to family functions, I'm always busy talking someone's ear off whether they like it or not. Thanksgiving was fun, and I am glad to say we didn't really do the Black Friday thing this year. There wasn't anything that we just HAD to have. But of course I couldn't handle not going at all since the stores opened so early... so Randy and I went to Walmart just to people watch at eleven PM. We were there to witness the electronic madness. Oh, it was so worth it. We found ourselves running to the madness just to see what everyone wanted so badly, and if there was something left, we'd grab it, just because. :) We ended up putting almost everything back, but some hot wheels for Collin and a barbie for Macey. Haha. So worth it.
And that brings us to Christmas. I actually have pictures of that, so I'll start a new post.
