Nick at the Emergency Vet

If you have noticed the time this was posted you will note it is around 1:15 AM. That is because we have had to take our dog Nick to the EMERGENCY VET. Apparently we have poisoned him with the flea and tick medication we gave him around 5pm this afternoon!
We noticed around 9:30pm that he started drooling. By 11pm the drool was so bad I could have mopped the floors in it. So off to the vet we go. When we get there they check all of his vital signs and they tell us all are good. A young Vet comes in and looks at him and tells us that there is nothing they can do for him....after we had washed off his flea and tick application it is a waiting game. So he sent us home to watch him and to make sure he did not get any worse. It would just need to run it's course.
So here is a picture of him...smile and all.
Ya know, not every dog gets a $85 Christmas Present!

Gingerbread Elf for Grace

One of Grace's "Family Project's" for her Kindergarten class was to decorate a paper Gingerbread Man. We just finished him up...

Girls School Pictures for 2008-09


Well here they are...school pictures for Emma's 2nd grade year and Grace's Kindergarten year. Why is it that school pictures are like Drivers License pictures...they just never look good??? The kids look as cute as ever but the pictures are too dark. Grace's hair looks the same color as her shirt.:) Did I happen to mention these are re-takes!

Christmas is my favorite time of the year...





To be a "Stalker" you must love Christmas.
I love the decorations, the madness of shopping and the

crazy Christmas schedules that go along with it.



The Christmas songs are just an added bonus!
Even though it always seem to be the best and the worst time of the year, it just is magical.
I also love the fact that it is a special time to refocus on Christ.

I took some pictures of the house all decorated up this year. Justin always does such an amazing job. I hope you enjoy them. Sorry they are a little blurry...I am a terrible picture taker. :)



Merry Christmas!
