The Adventures of Bella and Kristen


Hello all! This is Bella. The crazy border collie who made me cry more than laugh my last semester of college. (5 month old border collie does not belong in an apartment!) We found her at a Spurs game and I had no idea what I was getting into. Needless to say, I love her and we are now in agility classes. (she moved up to the next level! yeaaaah I'm a proud mama!) Maybe this makes me crazy...but I'm okay with that.

Bella and Stevo before class

Bella's main reason for existence. I hoped this day would never come. She discovered goats and there was no going back. We had to drag her way. Not only did she have crazy eyes, but she also weedled her way out of her collar and ran back to the goats. 

I knew this would happen. 

My personal favorite. 

Hells Bells!

Meet Gracy. Half Border collie/half CHIHUAHUA
I can't get enough of this dog. The mix is insane!

Lovin' Life

Me=emo. Marmalade=get me the hell out of here. Bella=I'm ready for my close up.

Arsty. Please notice the chip in Marmalade's ear. That's from many years of battle. BAD A.

I call this: Cat walking Dog

Baddest Cat on the block

 I spy...

Bella begs for treats from the other owners. So proud. 

So maybe this was more a photo shoot than actual adventures? 

p.s. I'm 30 years junior of most of the people in my class. LOVE IT.

Sincerely,

I LOVE HALLOWEEN!!! Except for the whole scary movie part….errr

I get to dress up and eat candy? How could it get any better?

Except for the fact that I loathe scary movies. I joke about how Hocus Pocus scared the bejeezes out of me in 2nd grade, but really it scarred me for life. I once hid in another room at a sleepover, while everyone else watched Hocus Pocus. I mean Bett Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker were SCARY. They sucked up little children’s souls!  And I was not going to stick around and witness that catastrophe. Nor was I going to be one of their victims. Now that I think about it, I have never dressed up as anything scary for Halloween. (Unless you count the time I was Betty Boop my sophomore year of college. YUP. I looked like a tranny.) My sister, Lauren, always took over the scary part. Here is the evidence…

               Lauren(middle)=Scaring adults one house at a time

It may be a little early for Halloween, but my love of costumes is too great. This year I'll be in Austin for Halloween! Hollaaaa! Now the questions is do I dress up as the corpse's bride or shimmy into a sailor girl costume? Or maybe...Just maybe I'll be an avatar. Please go to www.partycity.com for your entertainment. 

Sincerely,

The Thriller (you can't NOT dance to that song. I also wish MJ had stopped plastic surgery at this point. Annnd another side-note I saw this music video at my babysitter when I was a wee one (didn't know what it was at the time) and was terrified by the part where he turns into the werewolf. Hey...It could happen.)


 If this is wrong, then I don't want to be right.
