Guess What?

So, the big news is that I got a job! I will be teaching at Head Start right near our house. I got the call Monday, and hadn't even interviewed for the position. It was a big shock but also a HUGE stress relief for both of us.

Other than that we have been laying low and spend most of our time with Bella. We take her for a walk everyday. On her first walk, I took her up to the Farmer's Market. She was very intrigued with her reflection in the storefront windows.

Since then Bella has gotten alot better at walking on her leash.

It's funny to watch her explore the world, everything is fascinating.

The Bella Monster is getting alot bigger and more energetic. The other day we went and got her a bigger collar and bowls.


Tuesday we took Bella down to visit Grandma and Pop. She really enjoyed pestering Molly and running around the property. Fortunately, she still stays within eye sight. Grandma sent us home with lots of veggies and some beautiful hydrangeas. While Jesse has been at work the past few days I have been cooking. I made spaghetti sauce, spicy bread and butter pickles, fried squash, and I plan on making salsa this weekend.

Grandma's hydrangeas and naked ladies from our yard.

We have a lot of remote controls and they take up the coffee table. So yesterday I decided to make a holder for them. I bought a paper mache box from hobby lobby and some clearance scrapbook paper. I glued the paper onto the box, painted the inside, and polyurethaned the outside.


That is all for today, Bella has made this post quite a chore by pawing at the keys while I type, so we are off to take a walk.
