SAM I AM :)

We still have him! He's such a great dog! We took him to get neutered on the 19th, and he's doing really well. He loves to run and play with Rocky and Kaia. He gets along well with our kitties and hasn't had a single accident in the house. I don't even think I've heard him bark. He loves to snuggle and be by your side.

We changed his name from Bo to Sam I Am. Jeff's brother has a black lab pitbull mix that is already named Bo. I thought... just in case we end up keeping him he deserves to have his own name. We are really starting to fall in love with this guy and I think he's awesome!








O'Hara Christmas 2009

This year we had the O'Hara clan at our house for a Christmas breakfast. I struggle so much at Christmas time with all of the pressure to spend money and buy gifts for people. Gifts, that they don't even need.

Send a card, make a call or even send a simple email to express what you're feeling.

Christmas does NOT = gifts!

Christmas is a time to celebrate Christ and make memories with family and friends. This year, my family decided to not feed into all of the commercialized gift buying for the adults, but instead, made breakfast, ate together, and enjoyed each other's company. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. I am truly lucky to have such amazing family on my side and Jeff's side.

We still have Bo-Diggity


Well, here we are, one week later. Still taking care of the wondering black lab, who we now call Bo, because he reminds us of Jared and Lindsay's lab mix.


I've posted fliers (too many to count), placed online ads, contacted 9 local shelters and the humane society. I'm starting to get the feeling that this sweet dog's original owners don't want to find him, they just don't seem to be looking. :( I don't know what else I can do.


Bo is getting used to our kitties and is a little scared of them. We are still really weary when they come out to smell Bo, I would hate for him to try to attack them. If he did, I would have no choice but to send him to another foster home. The shelter would be my last resort. I think they are so stressful for animals and they most always get sick when they're there.


Bo is an amazing dog, he is trained and is really not any adjustment for us, he watches Rocky and Kaia and kinda follow their lead. At the park, and off leash in the yard, he listens really good to make sure he is where is supposed to be and still following all of the rules. He just wants to please.


So... I guess if we don't end up finding him a home soon, we're going to be too attached to let him go. It's a really good thing we're planning to move to a bigger house, at least we'd be better able to accomodate our little Lane Animal Rescue. :)

Thanksgiving 2009 - a little late


This year we spent Thanksgiving with the Lane's. They like us to do an every other year kinda thing. We all pitched in an rented a cabin in Bear Lake, it was soooo cold, but the views were amazing.
