Barley... and then some :)

 What a dapper dog :)

Bye bye built-ins

Protective eyewear is very important :)

 All gone!! Now what?

It looked so good parked in the driveway...

Tommy and I did the Urban Assault Ride - a bike scavenger hunt all around Tucson.

This is the before...

And the after!

And this is the after... after...

Homemade pizza muffins! Delicious!

He loves his mama

Poor Barley had a blister on his paw and had to be carried home... He liked it! 

Home sweet home

Once our family frenzy had ended, we had a birthday party for Tommy and Glenn (the husband of a lady I work with) at our house. So, it was cleaning time! I took advantage of the clean house and took pics of it :)

This is a typically day with Barley running around the yard like a maniac :) He has an unlimited amount of energy!

Our Many Changes

It's been a while since we last posted on here... and we have had some big changes!

Numero Uno:

We bought a house!!! We moved in the last weekend of January and are still unpacking... Here are pictures:

The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all one big room.

We have a pool! :)

And yes, this is a built in murphy bed :)

Numero Dos:

So, I have always said that as soon as I'm in a house, I'm going to get dog. Well.... WE DID!! We finally found a perfect addition to our family :) We moved into the house on Friday and Saturday and then adopted Barley on Sunday :) He is a mutt, but probably a mix of black lab and border collie :) He is 3 months old and weighs about 20 pounds. He is going to be a big boy! Enjoy the adorable pics :)

Willow is doing surprisingly well with him :) This pic was a very short moment... :)

He LOVES his bed :) And we love his speckled belly :)

Numero Tres:

Now that we are homeowners, we have planted a small garden! It was Tommy's way of buying me flowers for Valentine's Day :) He's such a sweetie :) It's amazing the small things you don't think about when you're renting :) Here is our beautiful Valentine's Day garden:

We are so excited about our recent changes and are having an amazing time as home and dog owners :)
