Dogs

I got some pictures of two of our dogs. Justice I guess didn't want to get his picture taken. We got Papa Bear from friends of ours who saved him and they were about to take him to a dog ranch because they couldn't afford to feed him. Willie and I decided that he would have a good home with us. He is a great dog and great with the kids. Oscar our Pug Willie got me for valentine's day (2008) and he is a very active dog and loves to play with the kids. He has a stuffed kitty that he likes to play with however I think we are going to have to invest in a new kitty because his kitty has about had it. It took awhile before Papa Bear and Oscar got along but now they can at least stand together without Papa Bear getting annoyed. Justice will still have nothing to do with Oscar ( he is almost 50 in dog years though).

Raton Trip

The family went up to Raton this weekend for a family members wedding. The kids had a good time exporing the town. There are many parks in Raton, there is also a hill (Goat hill) that has a beautiful view of the whole town. The wedding was Friday and Saturday before we left we went to see an extinct volcano we got to walk around the top of it and then walk down into the center. William go to fill out some papers that Grandma printed out for him. He had to explore his surroundings and write them down, at the end he became a Junior Ranger and got a badge and everything to make it official. We all had great fun.
