What's new with the Graham Family

We have Basset Hounds - 2 of them. Got them last May when they were just 6 weeks old. They are Flash - tri color male and Bella - lemon & white female. They are the most awesome dogs. We had researched what dog breed would fit well in our family and they absolutely fit the bill. The girls can play with them to their hearts content and they never get upset, even when Olivia yanks on their ears or sticks her hand in their mouth. Or tries to ride them like a pony. They are PERFECT family dogs! When they were babies -

And now -

Olivia is a crazy monkey, no seriously you have no idea. She is into everything pretty much all the time. She climbs like a monkey. She is busy busy busy busy.

Faith has gotten so grown up. She's more serious. Very tender hearted. Just finished 1st grade. She is very busy this summer with dance, gymnastics and summer rec.

We just said goodbye to our faithful car the Impalla had 214,000 plus miles on it. We got a new Subaru Outback and are loving it!

John and I celebrated our 10th anniversary last August, so we are almost to 11 years married. Been together 14, hard to believe really, but wouldn't have it any other way. John works hard for his family and we are thankful for it every day. I'm so glad we found each other. And we certainly make beautiful daughters!

I have taken my hobby of sewing into a full time business. I set up at the Carthage Farmer's market weekly (if it's not raining that is) and I have many craft fairs coming up this summer & fall too. I am loving taking my creative love to the level of providing for my family!

Back to life ??

Okay really i need to breathe some life back into this blog..... working on how to do that :-) I wonder if anyone even reads blogs anymore, with all the Facebook, Twitter and other "instant gratification" type things out there, do people still take the time to sit and read odd musings of life on blogs? Hmmmmm maybe I will find out.
