*update*


Admittedly, I am not the best blogger on the block.  I can never think of really interesting and fun things to write about.  But, today I do have something to write about that everyone loves... puppies!  I'm SO excited to say that I should be getting my first puppy in about seven weeks!  Kyle's sweet mom in Montana has a dachshund that just had puppies!  Which is so lucky for me because I have wanted to get a dachshund for a while now, and Kyle and I have thought about getting another dog for a long time!  Anyway, some names we've thought about are...
-Duke (if its a boy)
-Bogey (like in golf) ((not sure if i spelled it right))
-Sally (for a girl although kyle thinks this name is stupid and says "sally plain and tall???" lol)
 -Dr. Love (Kyle hates this one two but I love it! I think it would be hilarious. we could call him doc for short)
-Red (there was some thought behind this one, i just can't remember what it was...)
There are more, but those are some of my personal favorites.  Let me know what you think, and if you have some idea's that would be great too!


Did you know????? The hot dog was actually named after the dachshund! Hot dogs were originally named Dachsund sausages!  Makes me wonder if people thought they were made from actual from dog meat... weird. 
Other awesome facts about dachsunds:
-They are originally from Germany
-They were bred to hunt badgers, thus the short legs (easier to track the scent) and their crazy lack of fear to very scary things... like badgers!

Other updates I can think of...
Kyle and I are headed to good ol' SLC next month!  I'm so excited to see my family and friends! I most especially can't wait to see my favorite niece Coleen!

This is the last time I saw her back in October 2009.  She's going to be so big when we go down there!
Also, we may be flying down, (yes we still are undecided) BUT, if we do fly, it will be my first time ever flying! I am nervous but I hope thats what we do, because I am so ready to fly!
As for other news in our lives, there is not a whole lot to talk about, just that we are as happy as ever and are loving Spokane and are making lots new friends and having a great time!
Thanks for reading!
Peace!
