Happy New Year!  here we are in another year, a new beginning..

As many of you know we got another puppy.. still havent quite have a name for him yet Tucker, Zues..who knows.. but him and Titan are getting along great now, Titan is not trying to eat him as much lol 
 

So Xmas has passed and we are all recouping, tree is put away, toys 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
and such all put away...time for those new year resolutions!! Anyone have any?? not me, well some.. nothing major that I know I can not stick too lol.  I want my rooms done over so that means alot of work for Billy, my own personal construction/maintence/repair guy.   Speaking of Billy he is going to be the big "4-0" this month, this week actually..no plans, just going out to dinner he is not much of a bday celebration dude.  

 

Over the past couple of months Billy and Mikeys band IGNITION has played out lets see if I can find some pics to add on here.  First they played with Diesel at the Skybox back in Sept
 
 
 
, just a few songs but first live appearence and the did very well.  I had not heard them before this and I was quite impressed...  Then, they played 1/2 set with Diesel again at JJ Boomers on Thanksgiving Eve, they did awesome again!!!  Then we took a ride up to Uncle Eddies at Salisbury beach on the 27th of Nov and they played a few songs thanks to Inner Child...which lead them to their own gig on Jan 7th at Uncle Eddies that they played 34 songs!!! They are booked again for Uncle Eddies on April 9th so all of you who have not made a trip out to see them yet should really try!!!

Little Sister turns the big 40!!!

I was able to throw together a little get together for us and little sis....Gianna was sick so Mike and Danielle couldnt come :(    But I got a cake  
 and some food wish I could have done more.. We (me/billy and Mike/danielle) but it was just working out to be so much money that none of us could afford it.   I thought she had plans with her friends but I guess they all backed out on her. 










 

The girls bday party

While mom and dad were here I had Megan and Maddies bday party..just a small party in the backyard with some family..I figure now that Maddie will be going to school this would be the last small party.

Maddies Ballet Show June 6,2010

Maddies ballet show, what a great job the girls did :)   It was Alice in Wonderland...

Today is Sept 19,2010 .... I have not posted on here in a long time but I figure I am still paying for this that maybe I should use it. I think I left off at the beginning of May. I know I have posted pics on Facebook up to this point but I will make some more photo albums with ones I did not put on there. I am trying to think back...
Mom and Dad arrived at the end of May to attend my cousin Bobby and his new wife Sues wedding, we all went to that it was very nice to see everyone. I do have some pics of that. I did not bring my camera so my pics are from my cell phone. They had a nice reception, we did not make the service, my cousin is a hunter so for their introduction into the hall they wore their hunting attire!!! It was also nice to see my Uncle Manny and Auntie Ruthie, they looked great!

so long

I suppose since I pay for this I should actually use it...

Well, Maddie Rose turned 5 over the weekend..we didnt do much her party is set for when mom and dad come up.  I am planning on getting a snow cone maker, cotton candy maker and popcorn maker she can not wait!

I sent the evites out already so I hope that you got yours if not email me for details.

So ,everyone knows we ended up getting rid of Bella :( we had no choice she was so food aggressive we really didnt know how to deal with it, I have never had a dog with that issue before and with 2 little kids around all day (cuz I watch an extra during the day) I could not take that chance of her biting one of them.  We were going to be all set with the puppy thing and just keep the kitties but I saw this add on craigslist for choc lab/ boxer puppies aka a Boxador (designer hybrid doggies) ya know these days they have names for mutts too!  Well anyway we decided to get him (he was the only male I lucked out emailing immediately) Billy wasnt to sure if we should or not but he loves the little guy, dont let him fool you lol...   Anyway, I had to pick him up on the 24th it was a Saturday and of course I had to watch the little kid that day and she was suppose to be here for 3..  I figured I would head out after she got here for my almost 2 hr ride up to Freedom NH yup me driving all that way!!  So 3 rolls around 315 330 and now I am getting a little p'd...so I text her um r u almost here? she texts back she is having car issues..ok so you dont call and tell me..so I text back I need to leave do you know how long you are going to be??? she says no idea then texts again and says she will have a friend pick him up OK yup that friend shows up at 5ish!!! OMG!  So he leaves we hop in the car and head out can find my way all the way up to Rochester to Rt 16 and yup get on the wrong way go thru 2 tolls and turn around back thru those same 2 tolls and keep on going..  Megan all of a sudden has to pee yup the 14 yr old complaining not the at the time 4 yr old.   I get off the highway, go to Dunkins she gets out drops the money on the ground, picks it up, goes in uses the potty, comes out we drive away...yup she lost 20.00..no where to be found!!!  Finally get to our destination,  house looks like a junkyard, a dog running around, kids, and puppies.  I get out the mommy doggie was playing fetch with the guy, she was no way a chocolate lab I would say more like an American Staffordshire Terrier but hey I am no dog expert, but she was a good dog came over dropped her log at my feet for me to throw for her, she didnt care that the kids were handling her litter just a good dog.  I looked over the puppy and off we went heading home.   I found my way back much easier than how I got there.  Kids were estatic we had a puppy, got home Alyssa and Billy were sitting out by the chiminea.  Long story shorter lol.. we named him Titan, he is such a good boy we have not used the kennel at all, his favorite place to sleep is the couch :) and boy does he love to sleep!!
so here is a pic of him what do you think he is?  I did not see dad he said he didnt own dad...but dad was the black lab/boxer mix.  hmm doubt it...there was a dog on the porch that was barking they said was an American Bulldog.  I am going to see what the vet says hear his thoughts.

Well short and sweet and full of gibber gabber..will get back to you with more pics..

c u later! 

Dancing

Megan has really gotten into her dancing a little more lately....  

 

Arthur Murray has group classes and practice parties during the week and this past week she has gone to a bunch including the saturday night dance...but when we showed up for that there was only 1 couple there and Jose (one of the dance teachers) so Megan got to dance for about 2 hours with him until a few others showed up then he switched off between her and another woman.  So not bad like a 3 hr dance lesson she loved it.  I had Maddie and Jayla with me who did ok didnt seem bored, Maddie kept herself entertained dancing around herself omg was the funniest...Jayla I think liked watching the dancing she wouldnt join in tho...

Here is some video of Maddie dancing around all by herself lol... Download SSPX3558 these are a riot! watch them ... lol Download SSPX3559

February updates

Hi y'all...

So the posts are far and few between but I am getting there...lol...

Well the end of January (Saturday)  we sold the puppy to a guy Billy works with it lasted a week, but it was the quietest week ever!!!   Omg, the floor stay clean, no pee on it, washed and looked clean smelt nice...no doggie smells well all good things must come to an end right???  Thursday the guy says to Billy that the wife took the dog to the vet and was told she had an incurrable tapeworm cmon now has anyone ever heard of that??? puppies have worms they get treated, (yup she already had the treatment for that before she went on her merry way) well he then told Billy they were going to bring her back to the vet to have her put to sleep.  Well, stupid me calls the vet to find out well must have been such a stupid question the vet never called me back!  I looked it up online etc...nothing about it being incurrable.  So, I told Billy get the paperwork they have from their vet and before you say you will take her back...well it turns out the wife couldnt handle the dog plus the dog they already had (which is supposedly dying of chrones disease) so, Friday morning I see an ad for Bella on craigslist...omg I text Billy and told him and he said he was just going to tell him we were going to take her back but for only what they were asking on Craigslist not what they had paid us.  So, this past saturday he went down and met the guy and brought her home.  She is doing ok, has her puppy moments, its definately not a quiet house by day.   We, have decided to give her another shot and see how she does, she definately has some aggressive issues and dont know what to do about that I want to just beat her but cant imagine that helping.  Maddie has to stay away from her while she is eating unless one of us is with her which is not a good thing, really doesnt work for me I am hoping its just because she is a puppy and you know they have to fight for their food.....going to ask the vet about it and if its something that is not going to go away well guess what folks she is going away!!! lol

We had a playdate with old friends...we met at Margiritas (ya I can spell) in Nashua...it was a good time. It was like we have never stopped talking for all these years!      
 
 
 
 

Megan has still decided school is not for her, really have given up on fighting with her to go.  I have a meeting at the school on Monday (15th) we will see how that goes hopefully they have something good for me.  I am hoping some online classes to catch her up and maybe she will decide to go back, she just feels so behind right now I can understand.

Maddie is still doing her ballet and loving every minute of it, they are performing ALICE IN WONDERLAND this year the show is the first weekend in June if anyone is interested in going...they put on awesome shows...like going to the theater!!

Saturday January 23rd

I can not believe January is almost over wow where is the time going???? 

Billy turned 29 this week as he says but really add 10 to that lol.  We didnt do anything the girls made him a cake and brownies.  Momma got him some booze at the liquor store.....just what he needs. sorry no pics

Mom is doing ok these days, she is tired and spends lots of time at the docs...like they are her new best friends if they would only put a slot machine in she would be great! 

I picked up the paperwork for kindergarten for Maddie can you believe this is the last summer she has off omg my baby is going to be going to school!  I think she is excited she asked me when she made friends can they sleepover, but lets see what happens the day she has to leave me.  I will be crying and she will be fine you watch!!!!

Megan still refuses to go to school these days really dont know what to do with her...she says she is going to go on Monday lets see how that goes. I am surprised I have not had DSS at my door yet.  I have called the school they really are not much help tho, they said they were going to have a meeting to see what they can do.......well that was 2 weeks ago and I havent heard anything since!!!!

The puppy is still here, ya I know I said she was going.  I was talking to someone about her but it fell thru and I havent put the add back on yet!  Megan really wants to keep her she does do alot for her but only if she can wait until noontime.  for example today it is 230 ya Billy has taken her out twice, she has peed on the floor twice and pooped on the floor twice!  yup these are the days I just love the dog!!!!!

well enough posting for right now gotta feed the kid lunch oops!
