Halloween

Halloween was a lot of fun at our house we decorated the yard and bought a bunch of candy to give out and we had about 30 kids show up at our house, and they were all little kids which is fine by me. I do not like the big kids that go out and take candy from the little kids this holiday is for the little kids and for the little kid in us adults we get to dress up and decorate the house and make it a fun time for the little kids. My dogs hate this day second only to the 4th of July. The fireworks drive my little dogs crazy every year.

Summer

Every summer we spend as much time at the lake as we can, fishing, boating and swimming. This year has been no different. The best thing about this year has been taking our dogs out on the boat, they love it and seem to really enjoy going fast on top of the water, they hang their heads over the side and bark with glee. I had never known that a dog would love the water so much. When we pull in a big fish they sniff and bark at the fish like they were responsible for reeling them in it is so very funny. A couple of the dogs even like to get out in the water and paddle around, Dottie and Diva really like it the best I think, they jump in when ever they can. Over all this has been a great summer and I already can not wait for next summer to get here.

New boat

After searching for two years we have found the new boat that we want to buy, it is a twenty foot cabin cruiser with sleeping berths for four, so we can go on weekend trips on the boat and not have to worry about a place for everyone to sleep. We have it out of the water right now getting it checked over and if everything is as good as it seems we will pay for it and get her back in the water next weekend. I can not wait we have wanted a big enough boat to go out for two or three days at a time and we have got it now and I am very happy about this purchase, and can not wait to get it in the water.

Big TV night

Sunday is the night that I get to watch two TV shows that I really like and I am going to get all my work done and have supper ready so I can put my feet up and watch Big Brother and Ice Road Truckers. These two shows do not come on at the same time and it gives me two hours I enjoy. It almost makes my whole week to have one night I can watch TV and enjoy myself. Now if I had a good third show to watch after Ice Road Truckers would make my whole day!
