Father's Day 2013

Shout out to Big Henry today! Probably the hardest working man on this planet. Seriously. 7 days a week, at least 12 hours a day - he's working. Whether it's his job, working on the farm, doing handy man things around the house, or helping my brother build his house - he's always working. It's ridiculous how crazy his work ethic is. He's one of those "The sun is up? Time to work. Sun just went down? Now I'll go home." Which is really impressive during the summertime since the sun doesn't go down until 9pm! 

But he really is the best dad in the world. He gives his children everything he can and I don't think I'll ever meet a more generous man. 

One of the cutest things about my dad is that he loves to cook breakfast! Once a week - usually Saturday mornings, he makes the southern breakfast! Bacon, eggs, sausage, grits - the whole shebang! But most importantly... PANCAKES! And since they've adopted my little nephews my dad is becoming more and more creative with his pancakes! Those little boys are in love with his pancakes and the zoo soooo I decided to give him a pancake griddle with little animal faces on it! 

DAKOTA BEAR

Someone just got a new baby sister! 

Yay!!! Harvey is super excited to have this little rugrat as his new little sister! He's at the age right now that he needs another four legged friend around, ya know? So problem solved! We got him a little Kota Bear!

She just got her first check up at the vet, weighing in at a whopping 31.7 lbs! We know that she is half Rottweiler but the other half is a mystery! The vet had his guesses as to what the rest of her is, maybe lab or border collie? But she is a cutie! And such a happy girl too! 

That's the best thing about shelter pups - they are just so happy to have somebody to love. We got this adorable girl from Anderson County Paws and they were fantastic! We first tried to adopt her on May 28, 2013 but sadly our little Dakota had an Upper Respiratory Infection and wasn't allowed to come home with us. But A.C. Paws was really great about it, they quarantined her for 10 days and gave her the treatment she needed - completely free. How great is that? Now she's home and happy and healthy :)
