A quick congrats to Stump, the winner of the Westminster Dog Show. Stump, a Sussex Spaniel, is ten years old and is the oldest dog ever to win the Westminster Dog Show. He’s beat serious illness as well as nearly 2,500 dogs in 170 breeds [...]

I am watching a show in the weather channel about the amazing dog teams who got a lifesaving package of diptherua serum th Nome, Alaska in 1925.
It’s an amazing story- men and dogs who risked their lives to save so many.
Around me, six cats are sleeping.
I am awed by the bravery of these beautiful creatures.
Here’s a bunch of photos from our visit to Fort Osage yesterday.

I picked Abbie up from her Tae Kwon Do studio (she’s a black belt!), and we grabbed a quick bite at a McDonald’s. Then we got to the library just as the class was starting. [...]
Yesterday I went to a John McCain rally near my home. Both McCain and Palin spoke, as well as several other local Republican politicians. I had lots of fun and had a great time hanging out with other Republicans. However, I forgot to take my camera, and besides, I was never really able to take [...]
My mom and I are watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. This is a rerun of the one where they are building a house in Virgina. Very cool – they’re building the home on a Civil War battlefield. That would be a very cool place to live.
Speaking of the Civil War, I’m researching it right now [...]
