WASHINGTON, D.C.!!

So, I have been a terrible blogger lately, but I am going to get better!! Back at the beginning of February (yeah, that's right...over 3 months ago) Sandra and Layne took us to Washington, D.C. with them. The trip was a ton of fun!! Sandra was speaking at an FDA conference about banning Oxycotin. Neither one had been to the city before, so we did all of the great sightseeing!! Jake and I love that city!

Here are some pictures:
Sandra and Layne, taking pictures of Jake


Layne was our professional photographer for the trip - he took the most and the best photos!


We visited the newly opened Pentagon Memorial. I have to say, it is one of the most moving memorials in DC.



This is the Korean War Memorial on the Mall...right now, Sandra is wishing we were at a different type of mall. I think she thought her feet were going to fall off!!


Jake wondered if he reflected in the pond too...no one had the heart to tell him no.


Sasha and Malia's pad.


Jake is always eager to learn new things! Or is he being patriotic?


Sandra resting her feet after we made her walk for miles and miles and miles and...

There were really so many more pictures and great stories from the trip...but I have been a terrible blogger lately. More exciting adventures coming soon!!

More of the Puppies!

So, the puppies have a nightly snuggle fest...on their mom. Here are the results!

Cooper likes to see her when he opens his eyes, so napping must be nose to nose.
Look at how cute my woobie I got for Christmas was...the dogs love purses and pink too!

Too Cute

Pictures from our DC trip are coming shortly...but I couldn't resist posting this new picture of Cooper and Zoey! Zoe gained almost a whole pound in two weeks!! She is now 2.2 pounds. I guess that fancy "Royal Canin" dog food is doing something!!

Zoey and Cooper!

The Kresser's have a new addition to the family!! Zoey is 6 weeks old - she is half Chihuahua and half Yorkshire Terrier (is that a Chorky??). Her pregnant mommy was given to a staff member from CCS's St. Mary Program...she was the last of her litter...the runt. Zoey was only going to come home for one night, to see how Cooper would react. However, Cooper and Jake fell in love with her immediately!! Even more than me!! Here are some pictures of the little lady.
This is her favorite spot...she fits perfectly under the counter!

Cooper was happy to find someone to play Orange Weiner with him
He is so gentle with her...it's been very surprising!
He even let her play by herself with it...Orange Weiner is still his favorite!

She tuckered out super early. But they had to stay close to each other. Cooper is very protective!!
WE LOVE HAVING HER AS PART OF OUR FAMILY!
