Fall Break

Last week was Fall Break for Cherokee County. Whoever came up with this schedule, I think it's great! I love my job because I have the same schedule as the girls'. I needed a break this month!

Tommy's mom came to town for a visit. We had a great time! We went to see a movie, went shopping and a fun trip to good 'ol Chuck E Cheese. The weather was great too. I have to say I'm a bit envious of my friends at work coming home from cruises and Disney trips, but one day we'll be there!

We went this past weekend to stay with our fantastic Sunday School teacher's kiddos. They are great. We had a great time with them :)

Tommy's birthday is Wednesday. He'll be 33! The girls and I have a special night planned for him tomorrow when he gets back in town. They love surprises!

Doggie Drama

Poor Max.




Ok, so we've had some doggie drama. A few weeks ago, Max hurt his leg...we have yet to figure out exactly what he did to hurt it. It was initally sprained, but turned into a fracture. I took him back to the vet after he's hobbled for a couple of weeks now and the x rays showed a break through both bones in his leg. Soooo, the first fix is to try to cast it for 4-6 weeks and if that doesn't work, the vet said he'd need surgery. We DO NOT WANT THAT TO HAPPEN!! An orthopedic doggie surgeon will cost us over 1200.00....that's a negative!

The fun part is that I GET to make sure that his cast stays dry. So, every time he goes potty, I have to cover it with a bag...are you kidding?!? I have to laugh, or I'll cry!!
