Who says Standard Poodles aren't guard dogs?




Last night someone tried to break into our house! It was about 2 in the morning and I heard Charlie get up and walk into the kitchen. I immediately started thinking Charlie do not wake up the baby! But then I started hearing our back door open. On the back door of our house is a lock that works similarly to a chain lock but instead of a chain it is a metal bar. So the lock was locked but the knob was not. I started to hear this opening and hear Charlie growling really low and loud so I wake up Dave and tell him someone is breaking in and Charlie is growling (so he will believe me because this is not the first time I have told him someone was breaking in). He gets up walks down the hall and finds our back door open to as far as the lock allows for luckily no one was still there. We called the police and they came to take a look so despite no one getting hurt it was creepy all the same. Needless to say Dave and I are really thankful we have a large Standard Poodle and locks on our doors. I bet you all wish you had a mop of a dog guarding your house now.

My mom, sister and nephews came

Today my mom and sister came with the boys to give me my Christmas present a vanity that did not fit in the Jetta. So we shopped and ate and then came back and put all the kids down for a nap and chatted for awhile. When the boys woke up they painted on plexiglass and then we took Dominic to the park to ride his new glide bike. Came back had pizza and then Dave made us coffee and a fire and then we said Goodbye. Thanks for coming it was so fun!





A beautiful weekend

This weekend we spent a lot of time outside walking to Starbucks and Parks in our neighborhood. Saturday night we went to the city and met my parents for dinner after their hair cuts and saw my cousin Joshua in the new club Fusion. Then we stopped off in the Mission for some Ritual coffee and headed back home. Sunday we went to church and the Farmer's and then to the park and Starbucks and back home for some Barbecue and Sangria. I wish it would stay this nice!

Chico

After Christmas our family went to Chico it was a nice time eating at our favorite restaurants and taking Kate to Bidwell Park. It was a beautiful day.





KATE'S FIRST CHRISTMAS

We spent Christmas Eve at Dave's Baba's house for dinner and some presents and then had Christmas morning with my immediate family then over to Grandma and Grandpa's house to open presents with his immediate family and back to my Mom's to be with her family. My Dad has all the good pictures but most of them are not converted to jpeg yet so maybe more to come later.
