First Anniversary

Yesterday Matt and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary! We didn't have any big plans but we still had a lot of fun spending the day together! Even though I said I was going to, I didn't take any pictures. :) Oops! It was a chilly, cloudy day outside so we spent most of the day wrapped up in blankets on the couch... and boy was that nice!


One down, many more to go!

What We're Doing (Besides taking videos of Ginny, of course)

All of my posts lately have been about Ginny! She is the most exciting thing going on around here right now. However, things are about to get busy! First of all, this weekend we will be celebrating our first anniversary! I absolutely can NOT believe that it has already been a year! Time really flies! Then, NEXT weekend we are moving! We are moving to a new apartment complex in Austin. It will be closer to work and school and church and the rates were cheaper. It is a much smaller complex which we really like. Everyone has been so friendly to us so far and we are really looking forward to being there. We are NOT, however, looking forward to the actual move... but then again, who looks forward to moving? Luckily we are going to have a lot of help! :) A few days after that will be Thanksgiving! We all know how quickly Christmas creeps up on us after Thanksgiving, so things will be busy busy busy! AND hopefully not TOO long from now we will get to meet our new niece! I absolutely can't wait for that!

So we have a lot to look forward to. I will try my best to take pictures to share... we all know nobody wants to read a blog post without PICTURES! ;-) I guess I better add a picture to this post to keep my readers interested... so I'll leave you with this.

(this was breaking the rules, of course... but look how cute and sweet she is!)

Ginny "Bow"

In my last video of Ginny you saw that she had just learned the trick "BANG!" Well, she KNEW that was cute and that we liked it so every time we would give her a command she would roll over. Even if the command was "sit". She has learned a NEW trick since then and now THAT is all she does! She KNOWS what we think is cute.... silly dog. Her new trick is "bow". These videos are funny because you can see how she does it before Matt even tells her to. The end of the second video cracks me up... she is aiming to please! She does 3 tricks right in a row and FINALLY gets the one she was actually told to do. Haha! She is a nut... she was also pretty wound up this night.

This was our first attempt:



Then the second...

Ginny's Tricks

Here is a video of Ginny doing some of her tricks! She just learned "BANG!" today! When I said "leave it" I threw a treat across the room. You can't really SEE the treat... so just to clarify, that is what I did! :)
