Wednesday Morning

Yep, just this morning it happened.... a great story at The Hendo House!!!


I was sound asleep, The Hubs heard Gus puke on the floor(me still asleep) he gets up and makes sure the dog is okay and starts to clean the floor. I wake up to The Hubs yelling at the dog to stay. This is what I heard, "Stay, Stay on that rug." Now I know what he was talking about. We have a Hawkeye's rug on the floor in the kitchen. I just giggled to myself knowing that the dog wasn't going to stay there. At ALL.

So The Hubs comes back to bed, I asked him what happened? He said that he was trying to get Gus to drink something after he threw up, and he wouldn't drink. Then he said he tried to give him a treat to make him need something to drink and Gus wouldn't take it. To me it made sense(he didn't feel good, and just threw up. Hell no he don't want to eat something).

So I told him that makes sense what Toby just did. While The Hubs was cleaning the floor and Toby(not sick) walked into the bed room and came up to my head, put his head on the bed with a treat hanging out of the side of his mouth. I of course asked Toby what was wrong, he just looked at me. Then he very gently put his treat on the ground and put his head back on the bed. I asked if he was sad because his dad(The Hubs) was yelling at his brother(Gus). He looked at me, and said, "Yes, Mom please help". Yes, Yes, I know the animals don't talk, but they give looks and we all know what they are saying!!!

It was a crazy morning, this all happened a couple hours before we got up for work, by the time I got up the dog was fine and wanted to go run around in the back yard. This I would say is a typical day at The Hendo House!

Have a great Wednesday!!

Furbabies!

So with all of the craziness going on around The Hendo house I didn't get to properly introduce our Furbabies. They are really like our children(we still haven't decided if we want any actual kids).

During our 9 year relationship The Hubs and I took a 3 month break from dating, it was much needed. A lot of growing up on both parts happened while we were apart and we took a fresh look at each other and decided if we were going to get back together or not. As we all know we did :) During our break I wanted a change, so I decided to get a dog. I wasn't looking for any type of dog in perticular. So A, one of my best friends(I'm sure we'll see her later) told Barb a co-worker about it and she knew a guy that had a dog.

So A and I went and met the dog, so fricken cute! I took him that day, A actually let him ride in her car. That's a big deal!! So of course The Hubs and I were still taking our break but he had to come see him along with C(The Hub's best friend). He fell in love with him too! At first his name was Uber, because I said that word all of the time, like Uber sales and whatnot, but after about 3 hours of calling him that A and I decided we it wasn't a good name for him.

I decided he could pick out his own name, I pulled out the phone book and started to read names to him, waiting for a response. It took about 4-5 names and he picked Gus. It works too, he's such an old man dog except for the fact he gets way too excited sometimes!

How Fricken Cute is he?!

A different view. For a while he was iffy about the stairs at my Dad's house!
After The Hubs and I got back together we talked about getting another dog. Then we heard the Gus's Mom & Dad were having another litter. We jumped at the chance to get another Lab. Gus was such a good dog it would be awesome to have another! So we got another dog, of course we were able to go choose the dog. We picked the only one that was sitting in the corner not playing with the other pups. We figured he'd be a little more calm than Gus. The Hubs got to pick his name this time, he had a couple of different names in mind but landed on Toby.

Toby is a little crazy, but super lazy he is awesome. He's a lover for sure, and is willing to do almost anything for a treat.

Proud Papa!
Typical Toby!
That of course was about 3 years ago! I can't believe it's been that long!!! Here is a little more recent picture of the 2 of them!

Ready to go to work! LOL

I was talking to A on the phone the other day, and we were talking about how old the boys(dogs) were getting. Check out their mustaches & beards!!
Look at all those Old Man hairs! LOL
Thank you for letting me talk about my Boys, I know it's been a useless post but now you know my whole family. Well at least the ones I live with!!

Christmas!!

As usual we had a great Christmas plan! It all worked out! For the most part!

We always have 9am gifts at The Hub's Parents house and then head over to Mo & Po's house for Breakfast! Always a great time, Love Mo & Po like they were my own grandparents!

We always have a great Christmas, and this year I wanted to start a tradition of our own, being our first Christmas as a married couple, we were going to go to a movie, or rent one from Redbox, or something like that!
Yeah, that didn't happen :( Too much stuff going on, and too many family requirements to attend!

Instead after we went to family functions in the AM, we decided to come back to the house. The Hubs decided to put the Fire Pit together, that we recieved from the In-Laws for Christmas, of course while we were playing games!!

The Hubs getting ready to prove his manhood!
It was a good time, we decided it was easier to lock the dogs out of the room, so we blocked their only path!! Not the best picture, but the box was a high as my waist.


As you can see way in the back, Toby not too happy about being left out!
It was a great day overall, naps were had a football game watched. Presents were opened and people overall were happy!!

We at the Hendo House hope everyone had a great Christmas!!
