Birthdays, Job Update, Puppies, and more!

Happy Birthday to ME! I am 25 today, getting really old, I know. We had a good day and a good 4th of July. We started out on the 4th by going to the George Bush museum which was really cool and we got our picture taken at the replica of the oval office. (Pictures to come) Then we ate dinner and saw some not so good fireworks, but it was fun anyway. For my birthday we had smoked brisket, baked beans, watermelon, and keylime strawberry cake. Tommorow we are going birthday shopping which will be really fun.
We have also been having fun with two little puppies for a week now. Pauls mom and sister each got a shih tzu puppy from a friend of theirs. They are only 6 weeks old and spend their days playing in a pack n play, they are so sweet! The puppies came at a good time because Paul's Grandmother died this week so they are having a hard time, but doing alright and enjoying the puppies as a good stress reliever.
As for the jobs, the hunt is still on. I didn't get the middle school art job or theatre auditorium manger job, but both liked me a lot and are putting goods words in for me in the school district. I do however have an interview this week for an elementary school art teacher job and even though I never wanted to teach little kids, maybe its where I am suppose to be. Paul is still waiting to hear back on his, we keep calling them to bug them but they say they are still processing things. But we are having a good time with family and are trying to be patient so we can do what we are suppose to do.


This is the boy, his name is Mutzerella or "Mutzy" for short (even though he is a pure bred!) He sleeps just like our dog Darwin did!

Mckenzie hugs them all the time, it's a good thing Shih Tzus are very tolerant puppies.


I love his little patch over his eye!



The brown one is his sister, her name is Elpheba or "Elphie" from the musical "Wicked"
