My first blog. Ever.



So I've finally jumped on the blogging bandwagon. As the date on this implies, I actually started this a year ago. Since my home computer didn't work so well, I never was able to finish until this week. So, here we go:

I wasn't feeling very creative today, and since my dachshunds are my only children so far, this site will probably mainly be about them. Who knows?

Anyway, as I've said, I have two weenie dogs: Harley, 5, and Chopper, 3 1/2. They're great. Harley is actually 1/4 beagle and I think he has more of a beagle personality than a dachshund personality.

The other man in my life is my husband, Mike. We just got married on New Year's Eve, after being together for almost 6 years. We bought (built) our first house this past year and moved in at Thanksgiving. Now if we can just get all the boxes unpacked, maybe I can park in the garage!!

Last spring, we went to the Buda, TX, Country Fair and Weiner Dog Races. It was so much fun! A local dachshund rescue group set up a "kissing booth." It was great! Hopefully I can make this an annual event. There's also one closer to our home in Cleburne in the fall. My mother-in-law has 4 weenies and I think it'd be fun to take all 6 of them.

YEAH!!!!!! I love blogs because it's the best way for me to peek into my friend's lives even when my own life is crazy and busy. I'm SOOOOOO sorry I wasn't able to make it to your wedding!!!! Our life has been crazy since finding out about Aaris's open heart surgery coming up at the end of March. I hope you post often because I'm very excited about getting reconnected with you. Oh, and you must post pictures of your wedding!!! Love you lots - Jessica

Marian, It's great to hear from you. Congrats on your marriage. He's a doll. You look great. You haven't changed a bit. Let me know what part of Dallas your in. I am in Cleburne, Tx with my husband and two girls which range from 7 years to 9 months. Love to hear from you.

Sometimes, when you have a blog, if you TELL PEOPLE about it they'll come and READ it!

I agree with Ashley, assuming her SA is the same as my SA, let us know if you head this direction! --and with Jessica, I would also love love love to see wedding pictures!

And for all this talk about weenie dogs, there's not a single picture of them on here. *Ahem* Get busy, girlie! ;)
love you--
