The Dog Door

May I just take a moment and bear you all my testimony of the the DOG door. In my humble opinion it is the best inVentiOn since sliced bread!! They are fabulous, and wonderful! Your dog can come and go as it pleases, you can be gone for any lenGth of time and not worry about getting home to let dear ol' FiDdo out. You also don't have to feel bad about working all day and leaving the pooch locked in the house (as in our case). Sadly for the past few weeks we have been WithoUt one, and it has been a very long four weeks for all thRee of us, with alot of int erupted sleep.

So yesterday I took matters into my own hands, and did what I do best... that's right... I picked up the phone and called the contractor. The door was installed last night, and thrEe of us had a fabulous nigHt sleep!!

Back in the "Hood"

Yesterday when I got home from work it was such a beautiful day out that I decided to take the dog on a walk. This was quite the feat for me because those of you who know me well, know that I do not voluntarily spend time out in the cold, due to the fact that I hate it. (cold is anything below 60 degrees!) However I bundled up with my warmest down jacket and grabbed the leash and on our way we went.

In my brief time away from Farmington, I had forgotten how beautiful it is, and how much I absolutely love living here. The tall trees that line all the streets, the quiet peacefulness of down town, living within walking distance to Farmington pond and Farmington canyon. I had forgotten how nice it is to have and to be a neighbor to someone.

I love all of the unique houses that line the streets, none of them are the same, they have so much character, and each has its own story to tell. I've been on dozens of walks all over Farmington in the time that we have lived there and each time I see something new that I hadn't noticed before.

I'm so glad to be back in the "hood" again, and I'm so glad that we made the decision to stay in Farmington!

A Blog Slacker

It's true, I admit it, I am a blog slacker. Part of the reason is that we've moved into our house now! Hurray!! and as such is took us a while to get the Internet up and running again. (We do have our priorities you know. First TiVO THEN the Internet :) Yes both Aaron and I had a whole week of vacation off last week, but we were both just plain lazy, and we absolutely LOVED it!! After all the late nights (Aaron was up until 2:00 am the week before we moved, pouring concrete) and the last min. push to get into our house, we both really needed a week of lazy and let me just tell you it was GLORIOUS!

Now that life is somewhat sane again, I'll be better, I promise. I'll even post pictures.
