Halloween 2010

So Halloween for me was spent at work! This was a great evening and I had such a blast! I hope you enjoy the photos and had a wonderful Halloween of your own!

Here are the gift bags we put together for all of the residents...filled with candy, toys, pencils and other odds and ends. We played games like musical chairs, bobbing for apples, and a skeleton relay. The clients had a wonderful night and Boone and I had a great night as well.

Here is Boone and I. I dressed as a Cave Women and Boone was my Dinosaur.

Here below are some of the pumpkins the residents carved...I think they did a wonderful job :)

Here is another photo of Boone and I.

More shots of Boone in his costume.

....Boone's true feelings about his costume.....

One of our residents carved a spider into their pumpkin and they got the whole spider out in one piece...I was very impressed!

I had a wonderful evening and such a great time with all of the residents. Boone though not liking his costume so much but he had a good time as well. Well...let the Holiday Season Begin!

Boone's Fall Photos :)

Ok...I know its been ages...I apologize :)

So, As it has been ages a lot has been happening. I have moved into a new apartment. It is a very cute small one bedroom one bathroom located in Sugarhouse region of Salt Lake City. Boone is loving his new home as it has a nice sized backyard and is also very conveniently located by the dog park! So please enjoy the photos below of my new place :)

Here is the front of the house. I am that front door and left side of the house. If you take a look to the right there is another entry and that is where my landlord lives!

Here is the backyard and on the other side of my fence is my landlords yard that I can run Boone in when I am home...so he gets a lot of room to run...which we both love :)

This is the side yard which come spring I want to turn into dog land and keep the backyard to humans. We shall see what happens.

This is the living room...more photos to come after painting and I get all the furniture moved in. Here you can see I am still unpacking!

Here is my bedroom...Bedside.

Here is the other half of my bedroom...still in the works but I love the windows in this place :)

Here is the bathroom...nothing to interesting here.

Here is the kitchen...yes that is a doggie door folks!

And the other half of the kitchen.

So that is that. My small and cozy apartment. More photos to come as I slowly piece my place together.

New Place

Here is the kitchen...with a doggie door leading out to the fenced yard!

Here is the side yard.

Here is the backyard...right out the door.

Here is the front of the house...that is my front porch!

This is a great little place! Boone loves the yard and we are a 5min walk from the Dog Park and OMG it is his new favorite place. In the past 2 days we have gone 4 times! This morning it was raining and so this early afternoon we will go and then maybe again tonight. It helps Boone get his energy out and gives him the confidence around other dogs! I will take some pictures today..well try as he spends most of the time running around like a mad man...and post them in the days to come!

Day Off!

So, today I got very lucky. Someone offered to cover my shift today so I could catch up on some Rest and Relaxation after working 62 hours last week. After relaxing this morning Boone and I took a walk up the street to explore Liberty Park. We had gone once before on a quick walk by but today I though it would be fun to take some pictures and explore a little.

Boone was terrified of this water fountain and after letting him explore, smell, and realize it was not going to eat him alive this was the shot we got.

There is this awesome cement/rock water feature in the middle of the park so most of our pictures were taken there.

Boone being so good next to the water...after this shot he drank and drank and pawed and played...people laughed at us.

More rocks and water. I was proud of him for looking at me so much...I swear once the camera comes out no eye contact is made!

I love the green pine tree behind him!

"Mom do you know that it is very bright in this sun...it is hurting my eyes!"

"Mom there is water down there and I would like to play in it please..."

There is this very cool green house and all these flower patches in front.

With flowers are bees and he kept trying to eat them.

He is watching all the kids across the way play in the water and he caught his tongue in his teeth if you look closely!

Cool tall grass!

Getting hot...the long tongue is coming out :)

BIRDS!!!! I love these pictures with the tall grass and a tree in the background actually turning into fall colors!

"Ok Mom I think I am done...."

One last good picture before we walked by the Duck/Goose pond and all bets are off! I had such a great time in the park and he loves all the attention he love he gets. He also really loves all the birds at this park and try so hard to behave but sometimes they just get the best of him :)
