In the meanwhile, I have puppy to potty train. Yes, I said a PUPPY! Miss Shaylen turned 9 years old last week! We celebrated with a Hippie Retro Birthday Party...and with the best gift EVER! Shay gave up her guinea pig last spring, allowing Teddy Roosevelt to go to a home where he would be the only pet. Since then, she has been all about getting a puppy - not just any puppy, but a little GIRL puppy. And since we are such suckers (Heaven help us), we found an adorable little puppy for sweet girl. The puppy's name is Gabby, and she is a cutie! I'll think she's even more cute when she stops peeing on my floor! ;)
That's all for tonight - not a whole lot to write for not posting an entry for over a month. I think I'm just tired tonight. :) So, I'll save my energy for my favorite part - pictures! :)

My graduation cake. I told the hubby that I didn't want a party, but there's something about seeing writing on a cake that makes graduation feel "official." :)
