ashley and cj come to visit!

a few weeks ago ashley and cj came to mesa to see us! it was so fun having them here. they were wonderful guests and it was fun to have some girl time with ashley and virg. we had a high school musical marathon and made homemade samoas that were DELISH. (this is the recipe, don't know how to do the link thingy though -thanks kristen :-). http://http//thepkfordfamily.blogspot.com/2008/04/homemade-samoas.html )

in classic ashley form- her not letting me get a picture of her.

high school musical 1 and 2 were not terrible. don't get me wrong, they were not good either. they were cheesy and predictable and corny beyond belief, but not so bad once the experience was over :-). just kidding ashley...kind of. haha.

PUPPY!

we have a new puppy! yes, i am aware this is the third time i have announced this on my blog. in my defense though, we don't actually have three dogs that live with us. dakota (the first dog) is at brads parents house and will probably (hopefully) be there forever :-). i know i know, i'm a dog abandon-er, whatever. she has too much energy for a house with a little backyard. we still have our little moose though, and now that we have a backyard we decided he needed a playmate. thus, puppy is now a part of the young family.

he is a 7 week old lab/golden retriever mix. and he is quite possibly the cutest thing EVER. he is tiny and we love him! he doesn't really have a name yet though, we are still working on that. originally we thought 'duke'... but it isn't really sticking. any ideas????

PS-one of the best parts about getting the new puppy: as soon as we can trust moose to be alone with him for long periods of time they will both be OUTSIDE DOGS!!!! hallelujah! no more mass quantities of dog hair all over my house! YES!
