Ruff Life

More puppy pics. Couldn't help myself.

Grad Partayyyy

Congrats to little sister, Lucy, on her high school graduation!! A little late on the post, but it was quite the celebration. The party was a "drive-in movie" theme, featuring Pitch Perfect on a rented inflatable screen (which was 35 ft high and 22 ft wide).

The popcorn machine was definitely a must-have.

Congrats to the graduate, but this little guy stole the show... 

His name is Ted. He's a boxer/golden mix and probably the most adorable thing I've ever seen.

Funtivities are getting in the way of blogging...

Summer is coming to a close and we are just realizing our serious lack of posts. But, DON'T FRET! The junkyard dogs have not been without projects...

Here are some pics of Brodie's newly decorated room!

Celebratory Week(end) Fail

To celebrate Dani's arrival (and the birth of our country) we headed out for a night on the town. But the festivities were interrupted by a mysterious alarm coming from the basement. Without knowing the cause (and Chad being absolutely useless), we phoned the Ithaca Fire Department to come check it out.

Turns out, the battery on the alarm was dead. #sorrychad

The firemen proceeded to question why we weren't out on July 3rd....struggle city.

Upon our return to the house, we discovered a HUGE, BULBOUS, PREGNANT (and probably venomous) SPIDER. Not cool, Chad. Not Cool.

This picture does not even come close to conveying the terror we felt when we laid eyes upon its striped body and fatal fangs.

Needless to say, two near death experiences put an end to our night ....

DANI'S COMING TO VISIT

Our BFF, Dani, came to visit for the 4th of July and see the Junkyard Dogs of course! (But also to move stuff into her room...)

Jamie and Rye can hardly stand the excitement.

She's finally here!!!

Bay Watch: Dog Style

One fine afternoon at Taughannock State Park. Rye's been working on her bikini bod for all the boys.
