Bailey, the new addition to our family
Saterday, the plan was to clean up the house for Thanksgiving company. Shea was going to clean the fish tanks and I was going to re-sort out the kitchen but first I wanted to go to the Rowlett house to gather up some more kitchen items that needed to be incorporated into our home...of course we never made it to the Rowlett house. First we stopped at Firehouse Subs for lunch, then we stopped at the Petco to check out the puppies...Shea and I had discussed getting a second puppy and I had told him we really should wait until after the Christmas holiday since we had thought about going to Cinci... Well since we're not going to Cinci until spring that issue was resolved so there was really no reason to hold back on the search. Shea had mentioned seeing a full blood german shepard on Petfinder but when we called the pup had already found a home. We went to the Rowlett Petsmart and checked out their adoptable doggies, we stopped at the Rowlett pound and found an adorable brown lab mix named Bravo with the possibility of adopting and then we went to the Sachse pound, which is were Shea found Prince. Bailey (previously unnamed was one of the few quite dogs there). I took an instant liking to her because of her pretty face (racoon markings lol).
She's super sweet in temperment but she needs to be trained... Specifically, she likes to get onto the couch and she jumps on people...and of course being one and having probably spent most of her life in someone's backyard she isn't potty trained. Poor Shea is having to clean up mess #2 because I left her unattended after I left... We've agreed until she's potty trained that she can't be left alone outside her crate... Shea had me practice with her for about a 1/2 hour when we arrived getting her used to her crate. She now runs to the crate (as does Prince) because I give them a treat if they go in... We've yet to introduce her fully to the cats as we've blocked of the house...that should be interesting. As for Bailey's name. I was looking in the Bs for girl names and it was one of the first ones I named. Shea instintly took a liking to it and so did I. So naming was easy. Welcome to our family, Miss Bailey.

Halloween 2011 - Taking over the WORLD, Narf!
Pinky: "Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?"
The Brain: "The same thing we do every night, Pinky—try to take over the world!"
The Brain: "The same thing we do every night, Pinky—try to take over the world!"
The Pinky & The Brain Theme Song, by Tom Ruegger
Pinky and the Brain
They're Pinky and the Brain
Yes, Pinky and the Brain
One is a genius, the other's insane
They're laboratory mice
Their genes have been spliced
They're dinky
They're Pinky and the Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain,
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Before each night is done
Their plan will be unfurled
By the dawning of the sun
They'll take over the world
They're Pinky and the Brain
Yes, Pinky and the Brain
Their twilight campaign
Is easy to explain
To prove their mousey worth
They'll overthrow the Earth
They're dinky.
They're Pinky and the Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain,
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, NARF!
Pictures of us on Halloween 2011
We had a wonderful time at Lita and Chuck’s. Lita was a ninja, Chuck a pumpkin, Lori was the energizer bunny (too cute) and Shea and I were Pinky and the Brain. We still have the world ha, Narf! Its in Shea’s pickup. Had a wonderful time. Food was delish and as always the company was awesome.
And, we also went trick or treating. Way fun...and it was the good stuff...chocolate!

The weekend before Halloween
We went camping at Ray Roberts just north of Denton Texas. Felt like I was freezing on Friday before we lite the fire. Yea fire! Awesome place to go; very relaxing when I wasn't falling off my bike...good news except for the handle bars the bike came out unscathed. All I got was a scrapped knee and wounded pride. Shea really liked his new stove/grill...me too. Too bad I didn't take pictures of the heart shaped banana pancakes that I made him on Sunday...of course I put peanut butter on mine with warm maple syrup.
Then on Sunday we went over to Mom and Don's. We were fed Fried Chicken, Potato Cassarol, Red Lobster garlic bisquits and an incredible salad...yum...then we carved pumpkins. I think Rose wins hands down. Mom did great too!
Tonight we're headed to Lita and Chuck's to hand out candy and bond with beer and wine. I've got a chilled bottal of Vampire wine waiting wa-ha-ha

This weekend, Rose and I made homemade pistachio bread, pumpkin bread, yeast bread, cake balls and whoopie pies. And we did 3 crafts, tombstones, glowstick face ballons and glowing mirrow eyes. The yard that Shea worked in all day looks great!
