Lazy Jullee over the summer




Wow..no update since August! So so sad! We are doing good and really really enjoyed the summer. I found out that I am a lousy gardener! I planted 3 zucchini plants, 2 yellow squash plants, and 5 tomato plants. To this date I have grown 3 zucchini's, one yellow squash, and a handful of tomatoes. Pretty lame! In fact snails ate my first 2 zucchini plants! I hate snails!

In August we went to Yellowstone with our good friends Angie, Erich, and Owen. It was a fantastic vacay! Angie's Aunt and Uncle have a cabin in Island Park that we got to stay at. It was a very inexpensive and super fun trip and we hope they will invite us to do it again next year (hint hint). As a souvenir Zoe got a special Buffalo stuffed toy and she loves it so much! And it is hilarious listening to her say Buffalo..which sounds suspiciously similar to marshmallow.

Zoe had her pictures taken for 18 months old and they turned out pretty darn cute! She is such a sweet girl! I got her a cute little flower bow for her hair. But where she still doesn't have much hair and enjoyed playing with it it was hard to keep the bow in place. In fact I think it is in a different position in each picture.

We have now been in our house for a year!! And the day before our home warranty ran out we called about our finicky hot water heater and it was replaced for a small fee compared to what it would have cost us to replace it on our own! Nice!

We got another dog..this time a puppy and he is an all black Standard Poodle pup. He has been such a joy..now if only we can get him fully potty trained. We had a tough time naming him..it took about a week to finally come up with a name that both Cory and I could agree on. Where he is all black I thought a dark name would be good so we named him Lucius after Lucius Malfoy in Harry Potter. Great dog!

That's about it..I hope I post more coming up cause my blog is pretty boring right now.
