Struggling

Poor guy is struggling. I almost cried when the vet brought Bruce out after the surgery (I've come far, huh? From the girl who didn't like animals to crying about one). He was shaking and in panic mode and what was a girl suppose to do? 

His eyelashes are back in the right direction now (almost looks like pretty boy has some eyeliner and mascara on...huh) and they did three surgeries back around his throat so he could breathe better. 

I don't think he likes us much at the moment.

This pics are a lii...ttle scary. We know. And we apologize.

We had to carry him up and down the stairs the first night...

Eye'm sorry Bruce...

...you will be having eye surgery tomorrow.

 His eyelashes are growing in towards his eye instead of out! Agh! We were debating spending $$$ on it, but he is only a little over a year...so we decided to do it. Good luck to B. And good luck to our checking account.

 

Rise & Shine, Easter Time

Adam and I had a nice day. Nice weather. Nice families.

Bros Jammin.

Balloon Bubble Thingys...kept us kids occupied for at least 30 minutes.

Paper Planes.

Miss Mary got each "couple" matching shirts. We were orange.

Nice song on a nice day for an even better God. This song is simple and sweet. Listen and then...listen again. 

Spring Break 2012

Speeding Ticket & Dentist.

This doesn't really stack up to Panama City Beach in college.

I Have to Post This Now!

My students have been super great today...little angels...it's rare...so, I showed them this before they headed off to PE...I told them that Adam and I just think this is so funny. Adam actually thinks this is how my friend Jen and I dance- be it as it may- it's pure bliss. Meet Happiness. 

These were the responses I got. I was shocked. 

"Wow. She is an expert dancer. She is working so hard."

"It must take a long time to memorize that routine."

and my favorite...a girl told me this on the way to PE..."I want to be like her when I grow up."

Haha...I should get her to come perform for my classroom. I would for sure be #1 teacher. She is their hero. And I mean, why not? She's got moves!

Happy Monday. 

Zoo

On Monday Adam mentioned going to the zoo. So, we got up Saturday, I ate the delicious "healthy, but not-so-healthy" version of Smacks from our Whole Foods visit, we went on our usual "meet you in the middle" run at lake z, made the spinach/feta pizza from our Whole Foods visit, and then took off for the zoo. Now...I'm not much of a zoo fan to be honest (I think this all stems back from Miss Mary making me "show sheep" in 4H. I was more of the "crafts and making chocolate chip banana bread" kinda girl..). But I did think it would be fun to just go with Adam. I've always had to haul around kids whenever I went, and had never went with just adults. So, I put a smile on my face and kept it there most of the trip;)

Adam's Fish Face.

Such a lovely pose. Ha. This is just weird. And you may make fun. I did.

Adam loves those gorillas.

"No more bearded Adam" Face.

We thought Bruce and this bat would be friends.

And that's us at the zoo!

We looked around downtown and went to eat at Midtown Crossing after that. Neither of us had ever ate there or explored the area yet and we thought it was an "obligation" since we lived in Omaha. Cute place, that Midtown. Cute husband, that husband. He is just precious and I am oh-so-inloveeeeee.
