Smart little Lola



It has been a minute since we have last updated our blog. Most of our attention has been spent on Lola, our new puppy. She requires constant supervision to make sure she doesn't spring a leak or leave poo nuggets on our carpet. She is doing well in her potty training as well as her other training. She sits, lays, shakes, gives high fives, and rolls over. I've even taught her how to fart. Ok, maybe I didn't, but she still does it and they stink. She lets stinkers every time she rides in the car. We have taken her to Petsmart to get shots and go shopping. She likes to play with the other doggies and look at the kitties. We love her very much and are excited for the day when she doesn't try to bite our faces and can cuddle with us on the couch. I give full credit to Lesley for her good training. Lesley is so easy going and calm. I hesitate to do any training because as you all know, I lack patience. (My mom is probably nodding her head in agreement!)

Other than that, everything is going great. I have been working some overtime at my work trying to keep my head afloat during this most busy time of the year. On Feb. 1st I will be flying to Rochester, NY for training at our corporate office. I will be there for a couple weeks and will come back and train the Seattle branch on a new payroll software system for 5 or 6 months. I will do nothing else but train. I look forward to it.

Speaking of teaching and training, Lesley and I were todays speakers in sacrament meeting. Lesley did a great job, but left me with tons of time. I now know from seeing Lesley speak, that I married a prophetess.

Lesley has been back in school since early this month. She continues to commute to Tacoma to work in the clinic. She is making a good impression I'm sure.

Well, I think that's all I have today. I'm going to attempt to post another picture and video of us and our pup.
