Who is the Guilty One?

So, I walked into the living room and this is what I found. 

Who is the guilty one? Is it Chippy? Is it Kitty? Is it Piggy? I'm guessing it is SAM!

Waiting For Ike

We're back from Albuquerque where we went to see the grandkids and to see Texas A&M play the NM Lobos. Poor Lobos lost by only 4 points.

It's tiring running after a 2 1/2 year old and cuddling a 6 week old...but so much fun!

Ike is headed for Texas...We better get some much needed rain from him. We've had only about 6 inches since January.

Sam, our 3 month old Chihuahua is growing and getting a nice coat of long fur. Here she is with her purse.

Headed Home

After two weeks of bonding with our newest grandchild I'm headed home. I'm needed at home. The two men in my life can't handle my 2 month old puppy. I had her potty trained and they've let that go "to pot." Now she prefers the carpets to the pads and grass. AARRGGHH!

Went to the botanical gardens yesterday and here's a lovely sunflower against the blue-blue sky.

And a close up of sunflower and bee.

Miss "Ellie" is such a sweetheart! All she does is eat, sleep and poop...never cries. Tommy loves his little sister and loves to hold her. I'm headed back to Texas next week...have to get back to rescue my house from my two big boys.

We got .2" of rain from Eduord...got more here in New Mexico!

Granddaughter is finally here

Elizabeth Breen Ray finally made her grand entrance on July 29th at 9:11pm. Mom and baby are doing fine. Big brother is having jealousy issues. This grandma is flying to "help" out on Friday. Can't wait to get my hands on her. Here is a photo taken with her grandpa..looks like she has lots of hair.

Who needs a maid?

Who needs a maid when you have a little chihuahua to help?


She's always anxious to help put dishes in the dishwasher.

Here she is getting ready to clean my shoe.

New Family Member

We have a new family member and her name is Sam. She's a 10 week old long hair Chihuahua. We just got her yesterday and she's already spoiled. She follows me everwhere I go and is now sitting next to the keyboard. Here's a couple photos of her. She kind of looks like a gremlin but I know she'll turn into a great beauty one of these days.
