Circus


Last night the fair grounds in our town were having the circus. Buck decided that we should go as a family, because rarely, with work and all we don't really get out to do a lot of fun things. I was kind of hesitant, but we went. To our surprise it was better than we thought. Right when the circus started and the announcer came on it startled Nuttles so bad that it, well, I won't say it because some of you may think that it is crude. So I am sure that some of you may figure out what happened but I will leave it at that. :) Anyways after a while she really started to warm up to it. It was pretty loud and her eyes were huge. When the animals came out, that is when she really loved it. But she made doggy noises with every animal. We are going to have to work on that. My favorite was of course the Ellenuts. Yes the Ellenuts! There was one crazy entertainer, he was like 14 maybe 15. He was double jointed everywhere and could move his body in ways we couldn't imagine. He put his whole body through a tennis racket. Yeah that's right, he went through a tennis racket. And he wasn't little. Skinny but tall!

So Yeah that was our Friday night! We had a good time. So if you ever think of going to the circus, you should. Great family fun.

Everything is normal

Well everything was normal this morning when I checked. No doors open, no barking last night. We were kept safe. So last night Bair slept in the house as normal. No unusual activity to report.

I would have to guess that the night before, for some reason Bair was suppose to be outside for the night. If there was something or someone trying to get in, then my hyper crazy dog kept them away. I am so thankful to have him. He is a pain in my rear but he is sweet and I feel safe with him.

This one is for Emily.

Hey Emily, I am glad to hear from you. I tried to click on your link but it wouldn't take me anywhere so I have to write this to you as my post. Yeah the Great Dane is my mother-in-laws. They are really great dogs. Ha Ha I just got that Great Dane, Great Dog! Anyways the only problem is that they slobber really bad. And I mean really bad. It is everywhere, you can find it on the walls, on the ceilings it just flies everywhere. Max is a sweet dog, he is really great with kids, and very protective. Well, I just started on the second book, I think I am on chapter 2 or 3. It has been really hard to read this week with work and house cleaning.
We should get together sometime. I better get, but have a good night and well you probably won't get this tonight, tonight so maybe have a wonderful day. I will talk to you soon. Love Jen

Am I just a parnoid weirdo?






Well I can't really figure it out. Here is the story:

I kind of have OCD, only when it comes down to locking the doors at night. I check every door at least 4 time before I fall asleep. Sometimes when I get in bed I will get up again just to check the doors over one more time. I know its crazy but I can't help it. Buck thinks I have been watching to many of my shows. (First 48, Cold case files, etc) Anything that has to do with criminal justice. I always wanted to be a detective. But anyways back to my story. So last night I brought the dog in for bed time, and as we went to bed he kept whining and whimpering, so I got up and put him out back for the night and checked the doors once again.
This morning I went into the garage to get Bair his food and noticed that the back door leading to the garage was open. Only slightly though, cause we have one of those sticks that push up under the door knob, and also a latch at the very top of the door. But the door wasn't shut. It was slightly open. You can imagine what is going through my head. So I talk to Buck about it when I got to work and of course he told me to lay off of the shows. But he did say at 3 in the morning that Bair was barking at something. Then he proceeded to tell me that most crimes happen between 11pm and 1am. Whatever Buck, they happen when the person decides it is going to happen. But anyways on to something more uplifting here is some cute pics of Nuttles with my mother-in-laws dog, Max!

Camping on the coast!














Well here it is. The wonderful weekend camping at the coast. It was a good time, but we didn't get to the camp site until about 8:30 at night, so we had to get our tent and things up in the dark. It wasn't to hard. First you will see Buck in front of his new tent that my mom and dad bought him for his birthday. By the way thank you again mom and dad, he loves it. Just below that you will see a picture of Nuttles sitting in the car. Big deal your thinking, but we had to wait in the car until the park ranger came to jump our car. The car's battery died completely while pumping up our air mattress. Don't worry our mattress got enough air, thank goodness.

All the other pictures are Nuttles at the beach. It was gorgeous,warm and beautiful. So a lot of the pictures are Nuttles playing in the sand. One will be Nuttles holding a long string of seaweed. It kind of grossed me out and some of you may wonder why, but I don't like slimy things. But I thought it was funny, and plus it looked like it could have been a pet snake wrapped around her neck. I took like two hundred pictures at the beach. I just kept taking them. My Sister-in-law laughed at me. I didn't want to miss a moment. But we had a fun time, we are going to do it every year. It is our new tradition!

So it's been a while!

Well I am still here. Some things have changed, Juan "De-De'' is no longer a Beckenpower. He is now a Rowyourboat. Yes, my husband made me put him up for adoption. I guess ''De-De'' was more than he could handle. Whatever that means. He is in a better place now. Well you have seen the pictures, do you really think he wants to live his life being abused by a little girl. No, and I wouldn't either. Working is mostly what is going on, we are going camping this Friday with one of Buck's brothers and his family. We did the same thing last year but spent most of the time at Wal-mart on the coast looking for a blow up mattress. The one we brought didn't have a piece on it. I don't know, Buck was in charge of that one. But this year should be better. Nothing really new, my mom has me hooked on the sitcom "Ugly Betty" It is the greatest. The third season starts next month so I am trying to catch up on the first two seasons.

Anyways, Saturday Buck and I went pear picking at the Church's orchard in Medford. The whole stake plus Medford and I think Grants Pass was there. We had to start at 600 hours. So we had to leave town by 400 hours. So my parents stayed the night on Friday so they could spend the day with Nuttles. When we got back we all went to dinner then mom and dad let Buck and I go on a date. We went and saw the new Batman. CRAZY I tell ya. It was great, a little "DARK" if you know what I mean, but the best one yet.

I better make this one short I have to head in to work now.

Woo Hoo!

Totally cool, I tell you what. My book is done, ok not quite but all that has to be done is the illustrations and "POOF". I am so excited! I already read it to a few people and they loved it. So that makes me feel good. I was a horrible student in school, so for me this is big. I feel like I have done something good. Anyways that is all, I hope you all had an totally fantastic day. PEACE OUT

darn it






Well I just had a post done and I erased it. I couldn't tell you how, but I did. Anyways a couple weeks ago we had the Beckenpower reunion. I am not going to go into it because it wasn't at all fun. To much drama, and some of you know what kind of drama that family has.

Anyways we have been pretty busy. I am working in the morning 6 days a week and at nights 3 days a week, so I am beat! But it is all good, cause I am glad to help Buck out and make some extra skrill. But what is new is I have decided to write children's books and Jessica will Illustrate them for me. So that is new! And of course I will be sure to share them with you all fo' sho'. Your probably wondering why I am talking that way and well I don't know. Maybe I am trying to sound like everybody else in America. Blend with our environment, blend! It is either that or Spanish and Spanish is to hard. OK not really! But I am going to stop talking n0w and end this fantastic post. So I will leave you with some lovely pictures of my quaint family.

Oh yeah Kristen and I have solved the problem if any of you are wondering. I guess I miss read her comment. I don't understand alot of the computer lingo like the little faces. But I am glad that I got it out and that I was able to let a friend know how sorry I was.
