Lets clear up some unanswered questions with some answers. Im horrible about following up with questions you all ask, sorry!
Now how did I miss not sharing what my puppys name is! How silly of me...His name is Doc "Rivers" Cooper...yup, thats right Tina! It just fit so well when you were out here when you added in Rivers, I decided it needs to be his official middle name:) He is half maltese, half yorkie. An official Yorktese!
Tomorrow is my birthday. Im at the point in my life that it has just become another day. So dont fret about wishing a "happy birthday", I promise I wont be dissapointed if I dont hear one:) Ive mentioned before that I work with a Jehovahs Witness. We tend to butt heads a lot regarding our religious differences, but there have been a couple things that have actually affected me in a good way. If you didnt know, they dont celebrate any holidays or birthdays. Now where I wouldnt rule out completely celebrating these eventful occasions, Ive come to the realization on "how" to celebrate these occasions. We focus so much on the insignificant nature of these commercialized holidays/celebrations, we forget the true meaning of the reason we are celebrating. Birthdays for instace, they are fun to celebrate when you are young, you have a reason to be excited when you turn 5, 10, 16 and 20. But when you get older, your birthday should maybe be less about you, and more about the person who brought you into this world, and maybe your Creator. Of course we should celebrate our accomplishments weve made through our life, each year weve been through, but you can do that everyday and why spend all that money just because your one year older? Christmas is pretty obvious of how we could celebrate that a little better. And Valentines day? Shouldnt we show our love for eachother every day? Shes just made me realize how superficial we all can be. And as much as I dont agree with her beliefs, she at least lives true to what she believes and doesnt waiver. How many of us can honestly say that for ourselves? I know there are days that I cant.
Ok, I think this is the last question needed to be answered. That little boy in the video above is just someone Tina and I found on youtube.com. She was showing me some other funny videos and stumbled upon this one and let me tell you, we were laughing so hard Im suprised our eyeballs didnt pop out of our heads!! Oh my golly gee he is adorably funny.
Well that should cover all my basis. If not let me know.
Love!!

Tina,
I have a friend who lives next door to a J.W. She has a GREAT relationship with her, and has actually THOROUGHLY enjoyed reading some of their literature. There IS alot about their beliefs that are harmonious with the LDS church. It's interesting how the butting of heads can change to a sharing of ideas, when you agree to read with an open mind and heart. Maybe if you approached it with this point of view, you might be able to share the Book of Mormon with her. It's all about allowing the spirit to witness... I bet she'd be happy to swap literature if she knew you'd read hers with 'real intent.' And you could set the ground rule of no negative print. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY tomorrow! Better late than never!
Yikes. I meant
'Jeannette:'
I had 'Tina' on the brain after you said she had an influence on what you named your poochie!
sorry.
