Tony and Jill's dog Thurston passed away just after Memorial Day. Losing a family pet is hard as you are losing a family member who was part of your life! We will miss Thurston, but we know he is in great place!

Thurston
Tony and Jill's dog Thurston passed away just after Memorial Day. Losing a family pet is hard as you are losing a family member who was part of your life! We will miss Thurston, but we know he is in great place!
Work
The last two weeks I have been working for APS Healthcare as their executive assistant. The job is a temp-to-hire, but I am not sure if the job is a true fit for me. I am helping them out for the time being and maybe I will see an opportunity that challenges me and uses my skills I have obtained from my previous jobs. Everyone is super nice there and they go by the motto of "WORK HARD PLAY HARD" which is always nice to go by! I am also seeing if they would be interested in someone for part-time as I would love love love to establish myself with a part-time role. We will see....as everything happens for a reason!
Since I have been working I havn't had time to update our blog as much. We have been busy on the weekends trying to finsih our house projects. I must say they are coming along great and soon we will be finished! Pictures will soon follow once we are done!

Bella
Bella is getting so big lately, but she is still a little cuttie! We have finished all her shots and the vet says she is healthy! =) We plan on getting her spayed in July sometime, hopefully that will be a quick recovery!
Lately she has enjoyed her "play dates" with her boy friend Zeus (Tory and Darrin's pup!) Tory and Darrin will be moving next door the beggining of July so I am sure our "play dates" will be more frequent. We will post pictures of them together soon.

Memorial Day
We headed to Pueblo over Memorial Day Weekend. We left earlier that week for My Dad's retirement party! After 34 years, my dad officially retired! He had a great turnout for his party which was held no other but his workshop classroom! Many of his former students were there and spoke great words about my dad! We were so proud of him and we know he will be missed. We hope he enjoys his retirement as it is well deserved!
Over the actual Memorial Day weekend, Joseph played in a golf tournament known as the Two Man tournament. This year he played with friend who he hasn't seen for over 7 years - His friend Travis! Travis and his wife Mari live in Phoenix, AZ and they drove to Colorado for the game. It was great meeting Travis and Mari! Travis and Joseph played well and came in 4th overall! Not bad for two indivudals not playing with eachother for the past 7 years and both being from out-ot-state! While the boys played golf Mari, my mom, and I enjoyed some Pueblo, Colorado sites and downtown shopping/browsing at the river walk. How nice the river walk is! I hope businesses succeed in the area as they are unique and nice to to visit!
My brother Nathan and my sister-in-law Jackie got a new puppy over this weekend! They originally planned to get Jackie's dad Jack one, but when picking one out for Jack they fell in love and got Rocky! Bella loved her new cousin as he was the perfect size to play with....but next time she sees him she will be surprised on how big he is!
We also were able to enjoy a great BBQ over at Joseph's mom and Tony's house. They had the back area looking really nice and had really great food. We were also able to celebrate Morgan and Isa's birthdays! It was nice to have a big gathering and see everyone! We haven't seen Jason, Melanie, Morgan, Isa, or Francesca since Christmas so it was great to see them! It was even a pleasant surprise to see Francesca's boyfriend Zach as he lives in California!
