cypress triathlon

Britt did her first Olympic Triathlon this morning in Cypress. She swam one mile, biked 24 miles and ran 6.2 miles in less than 3 hours.

the babies on ring day

All the dogs stayed at Britt's house with Allison, while we went on campus for ring day.

Kristie's ring day!

We drove to College Station yesterday for Kristie's ring day. Brittany presented it to her, since she is an Aggie and already has her ring. Kyle (Kristie's boyfriend) and Riley were there too. I'll post more pictures later...

malabar spinach

This stuff grows about a foot a day and loves the heat! I love the color of the stem...it reminds me of eggplant.

buckles birthday!

I can't believe Buckles is 3 years old today! I took this picture of him when he was 8 weeks old.

raglan sweater

I started knitting this sweater about two weeks ago. I'm following a knit-a-long on the Spud & Chloe blog. I'm using Spud & Chloe's sweater yarn...the color is grape jelly. This sweater is going to be so soft and comfortable with a pair of jeans this Winter.

for kris...

DH and I went to Wabash Feed and Antique store (in the Heights) this morning...we go there about once a month for organic chicken feed. I always go in the back to see what dogs, chicks and kittens they have for sale. These 2 Westies were so cute...I immediately thought of Kristie...Riley would love a playmate. I wanted to open the cage and take them out...they wanted to play so bad. I hate to see animals caged up...it just breaks my heart.
