Diadeloso

Baylor University has a day where school is cancelled, and well basically they just party all day.
They call it Diadeloso or "The Day of the Bear" since the bear is the mascot. (DUH)
The school has food and live music all day, Its great!
Colby Coillate put on a concert that night so we took the opportunity to go and listen to her. I love having Dan at a larger University because they actually have real performers!
We brought Ranger, and he didn't do so well with the loud music so we walked around with him while listening, the music went all through campus. It was so much fun. We met up with some of the Geology girls and just had a good time.

Something I'm trying

Being in Young Woman's means I get to do personal progress all over again. Even though I already received my Madeleine I thought I would set a good example and do it again. Not going to lie, I am not the best example for these girls ha ha, I sometimes have to remind myself that I am their leader and not their peer.
Anyways The purpose for saying that, is I decided for one of my projects to work on better Healthy living. I am a total candy junkie, anything sweet I will eat it. I would rather have candy then regular food, well I decided that I'm not getting any younger so for my goals in this project I have cut out ALL sweets, soda and Juice, and trying to cook healthier. I am also running every single day well except for sunday of course.
IT SUCKS!
I have been at it for about 2 weeks now, I have 4 more to go to reach my goal.
So just when your eating sweets or sippin back a cold one, please remember me, and do it in honor of me. Hold your glasses high and if your really feelin it, throw out a cheers to me! ha ha

Just a random thought for the blog. Any encouragement is appreciated! :)

If You LIke Pina Coladas

OH MY HECK! I cannot get this song out of my head. I literally have been singing it for over a month. I only knew two lines "If you like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain," Da Da Da Da. Thats it. Thats all know. So I took it upon myself to learn these lyrics so now when I sing it, I will know more of the words. I know after you read this post you will start singing this song, and it will be stuck in your head for ever! GOOD LUCK GETTING IT OUT OF YOUR HEAD!
Heres the Lyrics for those who just can't get it out of their head.

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long
Like a worn-out recording of a favorite song
So while she lay there sleepin', I read the paper in Bed
And in the personal columns there was this letter read

If you like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape -Remember this part speeds up
Then i'm the love that you've looked for write to me and escape'

I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kinda mean
But me and my old lady had fallen into the same old dull routine
So I wrote to the paper took out a personal ad
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad

"Yes I like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food, I am into Champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red
Tape
At a bar called O'Malleys where we'll plan our escape"

So I waited with high hopes and she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady and she said "Oh its you?"
Then we laughed for a moment and I said "I never knew"

"That you liked Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean and the taste of the champagne
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me and escape

If you like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape
then i'm the love that you've looked for, write to me and escape

Yes, I like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through all this red
Tape
At a bar called o'malleys where we'll plan our escape


HA HA HA ITS TOTALLY STUCK IN YOUR HEAD

Dan Bakes

I promised Dan that I would blog about his apple pie, and let me just say it was actually pretty darn good. Dan did everything. I didn't help at all and he was so proud. I mean he did the dough the filling, and even did a pattern on top of the pie crust. He watched that pie bake like a hawk making sure it baked perfectly. It was pretty cute how excited he was about his apple pie. It made me love him all that much more to see how happy he was about it.

The final Product.

Ranger No, Ranger Go potty, Ranger not on the bed,

Ranger Ranger Ranger. What are we going to do with you.....
I swear he is a child!
Here is what Ranger has done to our lives since we have gotten him. First I must say I absolutely love him, and he is the most precious thing in the world, but man oh man I was not expecting it to be this much work! So many people warned us over and over again, but we had to get him.
The first few days we had him, he got sick and was throwing up everywhere. So I took him to our Vet and the Doctor looked him over, did some tests and came back in to talk to me. Here is what he says.....
"Lesli, I have a big concern about Ranger, His symptoms, and how quickly they came about is a major sign of Parvo. In other words a puppy killing disease. There is nothing you can do to help it, if your puppy has this he will DIE!"
Literally people this is what the Doctor told me. So I of course tell him to run the test. The nurse grabs Ranger and leaves the room.
I just break down and start crying. I am in the crammed little room not allowed to turn my cellphone on. It was very scary.
The Test results......NEGATIVE! holy crap I was so happy. The Doctor was so nice and comforted me, and told me it was ok to cry. It was a very touching moment. I now love my vet even more. so he gave us some medicine and Ranger hates it. ha ha its a joy giving it to him but
now Ranger is doing great and spoiled.

He poops and pees everywhere. Thank goodness for Resolve!
He wakes up every 2 hours in the night to go potty.
He whines when we put him in his kennel at night, whines for ever!
He is so adorable that I don't even care that I am falling asleep at my desk at work
He makes me laugh all the time.
He's definitely preparing us for kids

He's already a part of the family
