Our Dog Day Lives

Isaac wanted me to show the cyberworld our dogs. So before the end of the post you will be blessed to meet the first lady of the dog world. As I searched frantically for the flash drive that holds all our pictures, I began to think about how our lives right now are alot like a dog's life. Thursday was the last day of school and we lost no time in immediately jumping into our summer schedule. That means, of course, sleeping til after 8, resting when we want to rest and playing when we want to play. We even went to see a movie on a Thursday night. We are living on the edge!!!!!
So, like the dogs in our house we have very little to worry us at the present moment. Don't get me wrong, we do manage to keep some resposibility during the summer. I have a couple trainings to attend, while my ever quizzical husband is teaching me all about triangular numbers. He is currently taking a master's level mathematics course in number theory. Isaac has a couple camps to attend and Aaron is hanging out with the family - his last two months before school officially makes him a kindergartener.
Ok, Here is the oldest and most wonderful dog in the world. Nathan and I bought her right after we were first married. She is almost 12 years old and was born on the 4th of July. She is smart and self assured. She house trained in one day. She never barks, unless hungry. She never growls without a reason. The one time she had a reason, Nathan's bike was being stolen from our front porch. She is the German Shepherd - Natasha Jo!


Here is Natasha "the Pillow" and "cruising in the Kharma Ghia."
