New Puppy

We have a new puppy! Reggie is a black and white Shi Tzu we got for Jacob for Christmas. He has been a little difficult to house train, but other than that, we all love him! I think he is a keeper, and that is coming from me, so he must be good!

Friends

Jacob and Kate each have special friends. Jacob's best friend is Zeke Page. He was in Jacob's second grade class, but has switched schools for 3rd grade. We still get to see Zeke though, and Jake and Zeke are on the same basketball team this winter. These two boys are so much alike and love being together. Hopefully their friendship will last a long time.

Kate's best friend is Dallin Silcox. He is in Kate's class at school and church. They are very much alike too, both love to be in charge and you better watch out for these two in years to come! They are a hoot!

January 2008 brought a big day for our princess! Kate is now four years old! For her birthday, we went as a family to Build a Bear Workshop. Kate picked out a darling puppy and named her "Cutie Pie". Jacob later convinced her to name the puppy Bella. Kate has a puppy at home named Cutie, and he thought it was just too much alike. We drove to Modesto and spent the afternoon shopping for bear (puppy) accessories and had lunch together as a family. On Kate's actual birthday, she chose to eat at Texas Roadhouse for the peanuts. We sure do love our princess!
