A Much Due Apology and Ollie!

It has been a LOOONG time since I've been behind the wheel of my blog!

I took a little impromptu break from blogging in April because it was the final push in school until graduation and a lot of changes were going to be happening. I'm happy to say I did walk across the stage and got my diploma (without tripping, my biggest fear)! A lot of other stuff happened as well like my senior prom and all the other senior activities.

Me, my Mom, and my Brother!

But probably the MOST exciting thing was the graduation present from my mom, a brand spankin' new dog that is all mine :)!

I think ever since we got our childhood dog, Kemo, a big German Shepherd I've always asked for a dog of my own!

His name is Oliver, we call him Ollie for short, and he's a 12 year old Jack Russell Terrier (with probably a bit of chihuahua mixed in). He came from a local shelter, and while the experience dealing with them was completely miserable, Ollie is an absolute little joy! He's only 15 pounds, which is a very, very tiny compared to our 75 pound Rottweiler and 80 pound Chocolate Lab! His little tongue always hangs out his mouth because he only has 3 teeth left! I'm really glad that I get the privilege of living with Ollie, he just has so much love to give and I'm happy to soak it all up! There's nothing quite like coming home from a crappy day to an itty bitty wagging tail and wet kisses!

As a little side note, I fully plan on getting back to a regular posting schedule :)

Now finally, a little photo spam of Ollie:
