Here we go...

So, I am joining the masses in the blogsphere! I've been reluctant, mostly because my life is completely boring. I mean, seriously, who would want to read about my life. But I figured maybe my friends and family, most of whom are states and states away, can keep up this way, since I am a horrible friend/sister/daughter/etc. with regards to the whole phone calling thing!

Most people post pic/videos of their adorable kids, but since I have none, you get the next best thing. Pics of my crazy family, aka my zoo!

This was Max in June on his first birthday! Max is our German Shepherd, not the handsome man holding the dog! That's my hubby, Jim, who turn the big 3-0 in May!!!
Our birds are the noise makers! Izzy, the one hanging from the ball, is mostly Jim's! She'll tolerate me, but if Jim walks in the room, WATCH OUT!!! She starts getting these googley eyes for him! Bailey, the larger green bird in the right picture, loves me! She'll nestle in my hair for hours if I'd let her! Calvin and Hobbes are the blue and green parakeets! They are our little escape artists! Just the other day, Jim went into thier room, and found one outside of the cage! The have been lifting the door for months, but it's too heavy for them to keep it open, so it just clangs away when it shuts! We knew it was only a matter of time before one lifted the door, while the other one hopped out!
