A day at the Groomers!

Poor Zoe, she just KNEW something was up this morning when John got up and put her harness on and asked her if she wanted to go for a ride! She LOVES to go places with us, but she knew something was different today, something outta the norm! And boy did she ever "lay it on thick" with the big sad puppy dog eyes! like, PLEASE don't leave me here! But our little Zoe has been looking a wee bit shaggy these days, so it was off to the groomers she went! She goes to "Man's Best Friend" which do a WAAAAY better job than pet's mart! She has been there twice now, and they do a great job! They said she was even good this time! I guess that's what a little maturity does for ya A? Anyway, look at how dang cute she looks! I think she lost two pounds of fluff though, and she only weighed 5 to begin with!! She is SUCH a princess!!~~~ NOT!!! As soon as I took that picture she shook her head and her bows went flying, and she tried to chew off her scarf! Ü But ya gotta admit that she looked like a princess for a minute there A? I swear she actually posed for the camera! I guess she knows how much I want a girlie girl! Ü BUT in reality her favorite thing to do is wrestle with the boys at night, or chase Bryson around the house acting like his mother when he does something she knows he shouldn't, like getting on the kitchen countertop! It is hysterical to listen to her giving him an earful! She does NOT quit till he gets down either! Anyway, I now present to you the cutest, perfectly groomed puppers on the planet~~~~~ Miss Zoe! ÜAm I cute, Huh?
Look down and show us your bows! Good Girl! Ü
Say Cheese Please!

WARNING! Don't look if you have a weak stomach! Ü

Ok so these are the pictures we took while we were changing the bandage BEFORE John's surgery! I actually thought it didn't look too bad, at least it still had the nail, and looked only slightly grotesque! Ü NOTHING like I imagined it to be though when he called me and told me he cut his finger off!! Although Johns says it looks way better to him too since all he could see was bone when HE looked at it the first time!! Ü Ewww Owwww! And speaking of EWWWWW OUCH! we got the hospital bill today, it was over $3500!!! Holy Hanna!! Thank goodness insurance, but I think it is ridiculous the charges that were on the bill! $149.00 for 1, count um ONE GRAM of ointment they put on John's finger! Man who can afford to be sick these days?!? UGH! I'm thinking 4 bucks for a GALLON of gas really isn't too bad A?


Now THESE pictures, on the other hand, were taken when John went in for his follow up AFTER his surgery! Oye vay! Now THESE give me the willies, seeing that pin hanging out the end, and not having a nail any more!, But the doc said it was healing, and since the pin had moved he just decided to take it out! YIKES! When he took and X-ray he said the bone was back were it needed to be anyway, so with the splint they made it should heal nicely and he should have a nail back in 6 to 8 month's! Anyway, John is doing well, and getting along just fine! What a stud! He puts on a dental glove to take a shower and that works great! Anyway, thanks to all those who were worried about him and have asked how he was doing! Now you know! It's nice to know people care! Ü Sorry they are not that great of quality, John took them with his cell phone at the doctors while it was unwrapped! Oooh, hope it isn't lunch time for anyone right now! Ü
