Well Vega passed away yesterday November 12, 2008. She was about 16 years old (112 in dog years). Mom found her laying in the grass in the back yard and Mike helped bury her underneath the apple tree. She sure did love those apples! Here is a blog post in memory of our favorite family friend. These are all the pictures I have-if you want to post any or write any memories, fill free.
DON'T FORGET: ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN!!!


Vega was tough enough for the boys...But sweet enough for the girls...
Always burying her treasure (in the dirt)...
Had a few tricks up her sleeve...
Loved the garden (to poop in) and flowers, and apples, and bees, and skunks, and porcupines...
Loved her puppies (what was it? 27 puppies total?)...
Willing to travel...Always watching out for us kids...
And always smiling...

De VEGA De Ville, De VEGA De Ville...
Of course, my favorite memory is dressing her up-and she loved it :) I also like to remember how she used to watch us eat through the glass doors. And mom would get mad about her nose prints being all over the glass.
Man, she was so smart! She may have been a mutt, but she was a pure bred one! Of course everyone's favorite memory is of us playing fetch with her white soccer ball. She never wanted to quit, even if she was DOG tired or really thirsty. I hope she is still playing ball and we hope to play with her again some day.

HAPPY 25TH BIRTHDAY TO MICHELLE!!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! This is at Blake's and Shauna's house Halloween night. We had a frightfully fang-tastic night. We ate Frankenstien brains, dried booger flakes, witch fingers, broom sticks, and cyclopes eye balls. Ross won the costume contest as Ghost Rider and Jake and Rambo tied for second as Rambo. We played Pin the Nose on the Witch, Don't Tell Frankie, and Halloween Pictionary. After that we watched a scary Goosebumps and drank Magic Potion. Take a look at our costumes... beware...
