Big Dawg Ranch: April 2011
http://bigdawgranch.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 25, 2011. The week before we left for Colorado, we attended a two-day dog show in Bakersfield where Ruger strutted his stuff! We had a great time with our "dog friends" and enjoyed my parents great hospitality. The show was held at the good 'ol Kern County Fairgrounds. I have many fond memories of this place from my childhood. As we walked by Building #3 there was a stage, not just any stage, but the very stage that I performed with my tap dance team when I was about 9-years-old! His sister...

Saturday, September 4, 2010. I can't believe it has been so long since I updated the 'ol blog! I guess I have just been enjoying these last couple of weeks of summer break. :).

He is excited that this is his final year at COC and guess what? He submitted his application to Colorado State last week! Dalton is a golfing fool! WOWwhere has all the time gone? It has been su...

Thursday, May 12, 2011. I'm such a tease. Okay, okay, okay. I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to reveal the big changes but I have been such a busy bee with one project after another. I am achy, sore, tired and LOVING.EVERY.SECOND. In a nutshell, after 10 years of residence, we installed new windows, shutters (handmade by Dalton! Doors and had the entire place freshly painted (I have a smile on my face just typing that)! The final BIG project is the deck! It will be so awesome - I can't wait! View m...

http://bigdawgranch.blogspot.com/2011/08/final-day.html
Friday, August 26, 2011. We had such a productive week getting Dillon settled and I am so thankful that we got everything accomplished we had set out to do. But now it was time to say too-da-loo. Brothers and best friends. This is the original Fort Collins High School.cool, huh? On the road through Vail, CO.very cold and stormy in August! And might I add that the service or cleanliness in Vail was not at all what we had expected. Yep, I guess Vail is only great when you stay at the fancy dancy resorts!

Wednesday, August 24, 2011. The day had finally arrived! The day we had poured so much thought and planning into. The day our boy moved into his very own space. It was a happy day. Dillon signed his lease, received his keys and we're ready to go. You just go up these few steps of stairs. And on the right is his apartment.perfect! It didn't take us long to move everything in. I promise, I helped.I just took a break to document. :). Now let's put all that Ikea furniture together. August 25, 2011 at 3:18 AM.

Big Dawg Ranch: March 2011
http://bigdawgranch.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 31, 2011. I won't be blogging for about a week because we're off to. We've got lots of people to meet and lots of places to go! Monday, March 28, 2011. A few bumps in the road. Last week my in-laws took their 5th wheel camping to Pismo. On their trip there they had a tire blow-out on the trailer. AND then on the way home they had yet another blow-out on a different tire on the trailer. AND then after that they encountered major truck problems involving a fire.eeks! He's a keeper. :).
