Happy Late Birthday Buster!

I just found my dogs paperwork and realized we missed his birthday :( Buster turned 1 year old on April 5th. We've had him since he was about 6 months old and we LOVE him. He's a perfect fit for our family and is such a good dog.

While we were in CA visiting family over the weekend, he stayed at Robert's friends house. His family loves beagles and his wife is a photographer. She took some amazing pictures of Buster and here they are!

Happy Birthday Buster!



Buster runs REALLY fast, I have not met a dog yet that can catch him! LOL...

Go Cody, you're almost there!

I love this picture of him!

Buster can even fly..! Well not really, but he sure can jump! I love this picture, he looks like a rabbit in mid air!

See I told you he can jump!

Here's a close up!

I think he may be getting tired now...

Or not, here he goes. He looks so cute playing with toys!

Isnt he just adorable! We're just so happy to have him, the kids love him to death and we look forward to spending many many years with him. Happy B-day!

Dolphin Encounter

WE ARE BACK! And so happy to be home. I have so much to blog about and it's gonna take me some time to capture all the wonderful memories from our long awaited family vacation. We were gone for 2 1/2 weeks and visited many awesome places in Guadalajara Mexico and Nuevo Vallarta where we had our honeymoon almost 7 years ago.

I'm going to start with one of my favorite life experiances, swimming and interacting with Dolphins! We took our kids to Sea Life Park in Puerto Vallarta and it was SOOOO Amazing! Such a beautiful experiace to see these wonderful animals so close, get to touch them, swim with them, play and even kiss them! The boys had so much fun, not at all afraid of them!


The dolphin's name is Triton and he's 7 years old. Here's Ryan holding his fins as Triton dances!


Kisses!!!


Triton wants to dance some more...


With all of us!


Okay I have to say that I love this picture of little Robert kissing the dolphin. He was so ready to kiss him! Triton kissed everybody there and little Robert was waiting for his turn with his hands in place and his lips puckered up just waiting for Triton to come kiss him! It was so funny and so adorable.


He got a kiss on the cheek too cause he was so cute ;o)


Ryan wanted one too! I was so surprised that Ryan was such a sport and not at all afraid of the dolphin being so close to him! There was a 8 year old little girl in our group that wouldnt kiss Triton because she was afraid, and Ryan was going for it! Go Ryan!!!


I love this picture of Robert and Triton, so sweet!


Umm... wait a minute. Those lips are only allowed to kiss me... LOL...

All in all, we will definitely do this again in the future. We Really enjoyed it as much as the kids did. There's also a short video that captured our dolphin encounter and I'm going to try to post it here. Stay tuned a lot more to come!!!!
