Bridget joins the family…
by on Oct.20, 2009, under Uncategorized
Well, we ventured up to the Bakersfield area this last weekend to pick up Bridget. She’s the newest member of our crazy little family we got going here.
Isn’t she adorable? (I know, the pictures aren’t that great. They’re cell phone pics.) She’s about 2 years old, part shih tzu, part something we’re not quite sure of yet. We think maybe terrier or lhasa apso. Hopefully we’ll find out on the next vet visit. One thing is for sure, she is cute as heck. I think her needs are as follows:
10% food
10% water
90% tummy rubs
Apparently, she doesn’t need much more than that! Thankfully too! Anyhoo, we’ll keep y’all updated on how she does and anything else that we might get done on the house (don’t hold your breath!)
We’ll blog ya later…
All Hail the Mighty Sawzall!

Preparing for the eventual arrival of Bridget who is going to be the newest addition to our crazy little family (more on that later), we installed a Doggie-door last weekend. We borrowed a Sawzall from cousins Steve and Becky (thanks guys!) to help cut through the stucco on the outside of the house. Man, I gotta tell you, it took a little while to get used to but man was that fun to use. It made me once again consider demolition as a new career path. Ahhh, such fond memories of ripping out mold infested walls and carpet…
But I digress
Visions of cutting through walls, cars, and everything else dancing in my head we made short work of getting the hole cut for Bridget’s new entryway. Bridget is pretty small so the smallest Doggie-door available works just fine. It just looks so tiny. I can’t believe it. I’ve never had a tiny little dog before. We’re looking forward to getting her home sometime this month.
