Mesquite, Nevada

This past weekend, Jeff had to work at the Eureka Casino in Mesquite, Nevada. He is an audio/video technician, and the best one there is!! He also installs and repairs garage doors on the side, he's amazing at that too! :)

I was able to go with him because I work for the most amazing company and have the most amazing boss!

We stayed at Elena's house with the dogs. Jeff also does audio/video for friends and family, and Elena wanted to surprise Russ with a big 58" Plasma. I helped Jeff hang it on the wall and hook all the wires up. When Russ and Elena got there on Friday it was all ready to go, and Russ was so surprised, he didn't even know what to think. It was super cool to be a part of such a fun thing!!

On Saturday we all hopped in Elena's Euro Van and drove to Mesquite for a little gambling. The highlight of my night was as I was walking to the ladies room, a short old indian guy stopped, looked me up and down and loudly said "DAAAAMN!!"
hahahaha, I guess I still gots it goin on :)

Glitter Toes with the Nieces

The other day I had the opportunity to hang with two of my nieces, Katie and Sami! Their birthdays are really close to each other, so I decided I would treat them to a fun girls night of glitter toes!

I'm really lovin this new glitter toes thing, this is the second time i've done it. It's like a gel coating over the top of the nail, and it lasts for about 6-8 weeks. :)

The highlight of the night was listening to the fun loving 11 year olds in my backseat singing Party in The USA by Miley Cyrus, word for word! LOL so much fun. I love these girls so much!

Introducing Tink Erbell Lane - our newest sweetie

Yes, we did it again! On November 3rd we adopted our 5th baby, Tink. She is a patch tabby who's about 4 years old from Tender Heart Techs Pet Alliance. http://www.theyuppiepuppie.com/index.htm

Right now there are so many homeless animals because of the current economical situation. People are losing their homes and being forced to choose between feeding themselves or feeding their pets. It's a tragic situation.

With that being said, Jeff and I are some of the very few people who thankfully haven't had to deal with the hardships so many other people are struggling with. Because of that, we decided that we CAN do more and so we did.

The rescue we adopted Rustad from just recently lowered adoption fees on all adult cats to $10.00 each. They have so many and are continually rescuing more and more. Please spay and nueter your pets. It is so irresponsible to condone breeding. These animals suffer for people's selfishness.

The animals we care for are our family. They share our days with us, they witness us love, stress, relax, laugh and cook. They know our mannerisms better than some of our human friends. They take care of us as much as we take care of them.

We are lucky to have the opportunity to be best friends with our cats and dogs. We are lucky to know how much love and camaraderie an animal can bestow.

So far, Tink is adjusting very well, she is super skinny and has a little bit of a cold, probably from being in the shelter. :( She is VERY friendly and is really good with the rest of the gang. Bella hasn't yet accepted her friendship and is still cranky with her, but it's only day 2.
