Remy

My parents have a new puppy. The woman who sold them Misty asked them if they wanted another puppy since she passed so young. In my dad's words "A free puppy is better than paying for one." So, they picked up Remy a few weeks ago. She's adorable and a bit fiesty and loves her sleep. She follows Brinley around everywhere she goes. Between Sammy and I, she loves Sammy more. Of course :) I had a big dilemma where I was wondering if there's something wrong with my soul and that's why dogs never like me that much. They'll tolerate me, but they never love on my like Sammy and my mom and Brinley.




She's a cutie, but she's not Misty. It's been weird. I miss Misty. She was a character and always got her way. She was a good dog even though she had her moments. She wasn't a puppy anymore, she was a dog. I loved Misty so much especially after I got married. I missed her all the time. And she's gone now. Remy is there, but she's not Misty.

It's not Remy's fault that she's not Misty. She didn't do anything. She's just a little puppy who needs some love and has her own personality and is cute in her own way. But I keep thinking of Misty as a puppy. It's all so close together. I try to remember Ginger and it's hard to remember what she looked like anymore. I mourned a lot for Ginger, so I guess I'm still mourning Misty.

It's so crazy how animals can touch our lives so deeply. In the bible it says they are for our enjoyment but it's so much more than that! I'm grateful for all the sweet animals who have touched my life and my families, and that my family always has a dog that I can go over and play with any time. Oh doggies!

    I heard that in Mormonism, animals get to go to heaven. Is that true?

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...

I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
