The Best Dog Ever

Here are some really cute pictures of the Best Dog Ever!

Samus enjoyed her 2nd Christmas this year. Mr. Shep and I got her some yummy treats and her "friend" Calder got her some treats too. Calder also got her a squeaky rubber chicken and a gift card to PetCo.

So Calder didn't feel left out with presents, Samus got him a new chew rope and some T-Bone treats. Samus and Calder go 'ga-ga' over T-Bone treats. I mean it...they go crazy...lots of barking (Samus) and wining (Calder).

Calder belongs to Mama and Papa Shep...he stayed with us for Christmas because Mama and Papa Shep spent Christmas in Pheonix, AZ with Mr. Shep's youngest sister, her husband, and their son.

That's all for now...enjoy...

The Kitchen Saga Continues

Here are some new and updated pictures of our "Favorite Kitchen Project..."

My Mom and I started painting me and Mr. Shep's dining room today. Before this fabulous day this room was stripped down to the studs and Mr. Shep and I re-insulated some of the walls and the ceiling. Then we had some guys come in and put up drywall. They did a fantastic job! Ok, so here is the dining room pre-paint...

One more kitchen picture...Mr. Shep and I hid various messages throughout the renovations to our kitchen and here is one of them (it's one of our favorite and one of the best know Bible verses). When we put up the trim on this doorway it will be hidden until the next home owner decides to make changes. Hey, you can see some of the first coat of paint in the dining room in this picture!
