Hello Again!

Hello blogosphere!

A lot has changed since the last blog entry of December 2009.  Here's a list of the most drastic changes I can think of:
  • Got married
  • Bought a house
  • Got a dog
  • Got TWO platinum trophies on the PS3
  • Bought a toaster-oven
  • and so much more!
I'm sure there is something I'm forgetting, but for a renaissance man like myself, it's hard to keep it all straight.

I'll re-start the blog with a little information about our pride and joy, Kona the Wonder Dog:


Isn't she just precious?  Kelly and I got Kona the day after Thanksgiving 2010.  Here's how it all happened....  After feasting on some delicious IMO's pizza, Kelly and I decided to go look at puppies at the pet store just for funsies, no intentions to bring one home.  As we made our way around the pet store, Kelly spotted this uber-cute chocolate brown pup.  Kelly asked the clerk if she could hold the puppy for a little while.  Nose nuzzles commenced.  Soon thereafter a little girl, maybe 10 years old, came up and asked Kelly if she could hold the dog.  Kelly said, "I'm sorry, we're taking this one home".  You can imagine my shock!

Kona soon made herself at home:



It's been nearly eight months since Kona joined our clan.  She has been a joy, a hassle, a companion, a pain in the neck, a walking buddy, a squirrel chaser, a Frisbee fiend, and a fine addition to our family.

I will try not to make this blog too Kona-centric, but she does take up the majority of my free time these days and darnit, she's just so cute!

Until next time...

  1. Did you mean toaster-oven*? Oh what a joy Mona is...I think there is another animal that deserves a mention as well

  2. No - I meant toaster-over. It's this new awesome thing that you must not know about. Who is Mona?

  3. Hi again! I can see I should have logged in much earlier to update myself on the toaster-over. Congratulations!

    Kona is very cute! Is that her wearing the KU shirt on Facebook? She looks different. Did you dye her hair?

  4. Hello cousin!

    We DO NOT dye Kona's hair. That would be cruel! That being said, her color has changed quite a bit from when she was a puppy. She was very much brown when we got her, but now she's more of a grayish-brown.

    Thanks for checking out my blog - I'll have to create a new post soon.
