Diary by Uley

Hey guys!

With mom's help, she's finally let me step all over her nice computer (even though I do it anyways). 

When we went to Texas, I saw lots of squirrel, we played together all the time. They ran up the tree, I tried to run up the tree and told them to come back down and play, ahh good times. It's a nice change from Jack Rabbits - one day I'm gonna catch one and show it off to my mom so proud! I also met my family dogs - they're the best! I can't wait to have a playmate here with us all day long.
Buffy & Me

Sadie & Me

Mom & Dad are back to school, which means no more cuddling in bed all morning, and sometimes they leave me here for ever and ever and I wonder if they'll ever come home (so far they have). But I also get to get my tan on and sleep all day.

BYE!

Uley

p.s. thanks mom again!

New Year, New Everything!

A lot happened in 2011. We had family losses, Jay and I moved into a new apartment together (for real this time!), we got Uley, I (unsuccessfully) had my hair dyed the first time, etc. etc. etc.

At the same time, we already have so much to look forward to in 2012 - a new place (by ourselves this time), a trip to Disneyworld, a trip to Europe, and almost to graduation! I'm really excited about this new year & I can't wait to see what lies ahead. 

Each year in Arizona things are slowly getting better, I've changed so much already since I first got here. For one - I've become domesticated! 20 going on 40 I feel like sometimes, but I love my life just the way it is, I wouldn't change a thing about what's happened so far. 

In other news - Jay got me a wonderful camera for Christmas this year, so I can finally start taking more pictures of good quality, rather than my stupid phone camera. In fact - we all got some wonderful things this year:









We're beginning to think Uley could pose for the SPCA commercials, doesn't he look abused?

Over break we also:
met with Jay's family, and their newest addition - Sadie

Met with some friends for dinner
got minor surgery on my wrist

played on our new Xbox & Kinect

Got a new hair do! (and slippers)

Got our class rings! YAY!

XOXO
