Jess and Matt asked us to dog-sit Quigley while they went on a week long road trip. We all went and stayed in North Ogden, since Quigley had all he needed there. My kids were excited to sleep in beds again... although we were short two beds, so they just shared.
It was quite an adventurous week. We had all the regular stuff like baseball, tumbling, school, scouts, sewing and random activities, but to make it busier, it was teacher appreciation at the elementary, which I was in charge of. So I ended up driving a triangle from North Ogden to Pioneer Elementary to Plain City several times a day, often with Quigley in tow. I often forgot contacts, clothes, homework, etc. at one place and had to go get it. It really was a week to remember. The kids loved staying at the Stringham's because they have so many cool toys and a fun backyard.
Carly and her two cute friends did a tumbling routine for their second grade talent show.
We ordered lunch from Bella's for the teacher appreciation luncheon. I'm so glad I had so much help from friends, it turned out so good.
I loved the little gifts for the teachers. My friend, Jamie, put them together and she always does a great job!
One of the many car adventures that Quigley had with us.
Abigail tried out pitching for the first time for softball. I brought Quigley with me to the game, and a super tall man walked past us at the game. Quigley went after him and started barking like crazy. I had to hold on to the leash so tight.
Luke did a great job on his country report. His teacher asked if she could keep his board to show as an example for next year. She said it looked so nice.
Abigail loved taking Quigley for walks.
The first night Ben came to Jessica's house, Quigley saw him coming up the stairs and lost it. Crazy growling and barking. He wouldn't even let him come up until I distracted him with a bone. He does not like Ben. I decided that after seeing the tall guy at the park and then Ben, that he doesn't like overly tall men. Quigley likes me a lot though, sometimes too much. He licks me all day. One night I got tired of it and I sat on Ben's lap because he wouldn't even come near Ben. Quigley just growled at me from afar. Like he knew I was doing it on purpose. I stayed that way for so long that Ben fell asleep.
The girls took turns sharing Emma's bed and sleeping on the floor.
Beau and Kael come over one day when we got home from Jessica's. Ike saw Kael's shirt and was so worried that he had taken his. He ran and found his in the dresser and put it on so they could be twins.
