John is not feeling well...he's in the bedroom watching movies and I'm in the living room with the news channel on DISing. I just gave John a nexium. He has an ulcer and it could be acting up. He just had a coke and it made it worse. If the nexium works, then we know it's the ulcer and he needs better meds....
Either way, I hope he feels better soon! 
So sorry for your loss.Male or female? I just lost a seven year old male german shepherd named gandalf. That's why we got a girl and named her angel. We still miss gandalf and love him everyday. But he was a lot easier to train then angel is. I think it's the male/female thing. He was a good dog. He listened immediately and was a really sweet soul. I have to get a picture of him to post on here. I have him in my cell phone...
My dad's puppy is female. They named her Matey after my great-grandma, Meta Brandt. She immigrated from Germany. Matey was my great-grandpa's nickname for her. They're having a horrible time training her. They just don't have the energy to keep up with her.
Trying to think of something to do Memorial weekend too and also doing a quick trip to Florida early June. 
Alrighty....got everything working now. Here are pics from the Detroit Zoo today.
YEAH! I'm so glad you kept trying....
Tyler's patiently waiting his turn to sit on a turtle statue in front of the reptile house:
I love the look of anticipation that he has in this pic.
Cute!
New friend:
LOVE!
LOVE LOVE
I couldn't help but wonder how many other kids have kissed the turtle!
This is my FAVORITE. I want to copy it and put it in a frame. I collect turtles and Tyler loving on him is just so sweet.
Cool
Tyler was pretty amused when this peacock joined us for lunch and was eating crumbs that had fallen under the table from previous guests.
Surprise
Polar bear statue at the entrance to the arctic exhibit:
WOW
The girls all look like they're really enjoying themselves!Here we are before Molly got to feeling bad....
It was a great trip (up until she got sick). Molly has spent the day on the couch with a fever.
Our troop won 2nd place prize for swaps and the girls wanted Molly to have it, so one their way home they stopped here and gave her the prize, a stuffed whale. The Theme of the weekend was "Under da Sea" Believe it or not we didn't opted to be Ariels...we were Trout Fishy-Six (troop 56)
Sorry Molly got sick. I hope she feels better soon! Very sweet of the other girls to give Molly the prize. Yeah, and where are the pictures? This seems to be picture night on the DIS. Deb? Where are you? Look what you started and then ran away!
OK, my turn for some photos . . .
Here are some pictures of the new lights I put up . . . ON the house . . .
Front . . . .
And on the deck . . .
Thanks! I figured you'd love the turtle ones since I remembered you mentioning that you collect turtles.Holly, I'm so glad you were able to post...these are precious.
Here's a pic from Sesame Street (since we were sponsors, we got a meet and greet)
OK.....this is truly the worst picture I've ever seen on my son, so I should NOT post it...but just have to because he's being so goofy, it's a perfect description of how goofy his personality is. On the way to the zoo, he was wearing my ear protection from when I used to work at the airport outside near the planes. It was in the car because he wore it when we went to see the Monster Truck Nationals a while ago. So he decided he didn't want to hear me singing in the car anymore and puts it on, telling me he can't hear me anymore. When a traffic light turned red, I turned around to snap a picture of him. He was too quick for me and pulled it down to cover part of his face. Goofy face AND bad hair day!

Here's some of Sophia with our sweetie, Lexi today.
Yup, sure did! Sunday is our only full day together (his dad gets Saturdays), so we always try to make the most of it.
