Happy Halloween!!!

Well Like most 1 and 2 year olds the puppies wore their Halloween customs about 15 mins before they bit, scratch, and well all out destroy their Halloween customs. Zephy told us she wanted to be a pirate because she walks around the house going RRRRRRRRRGGGG all day. Well it turns out she didn’t want to be a pirate after all and well I fear that RRRRGGGG is suppose to be GGGRRR and that my puppies may be dyslexia. I mean with the RRRGGGing and the fact that she digs upside down. SO what do we have….. A dyslexia upside down digging dog that needs braces! Anyway Coaly had not chose in the matter and had to be a skeleton. That is all Bi-Mart had in her sizes well other than a princes outfit and that just isn’t Coaly.

We took a Halloween pic just because… At less it looks like we dressed up doesn’t it!! The truth is Drew just go home from work and I was just getting ready for work. Hope everyone has great Halloween.

Coffee

Coffee is being reposted for vin!! Sorry I sound drunk when I stay up late. One more reason I should not be working graves, I should be home playing Wii with Vin and Jess. Anyone else have a Wii that would like to Mario Kart with us????

Also it is now Drew's new goal to take some pic of the house and blog about it because all you will get out of me is how the shower tried to kill me and that I have set the smoke alarm off twice hmmm anyway.

So where was I ohh yes this morning at 2:48:

So I am getting the feeling that all I ever talk about is my puppies and waves!! But hey who could blame me. The dogs or cute and the waves are just cool. I think waves or so cool looking just because it is the last think that I would have ever seen growing up in price. So I am going to blog about how I am setting here working at 2:48 AM drinking a double shot coffee wondering if this is the reason I can’t sleep when I get home? Oh well I guess that is better then the alternate. The alternate would be, being confused and disorientated to the point where I would crawl in to bed with some random patient. Oh I could see it now and I am laughing to myself, yes it is true I laugh to myself all the time when I imagine something funny. Anyway where was going with this???? IDK Umm I must be tired. Anyway I am stuck stare at the wall for an hour until I start the morning draws unless there is a CODE or Trauma, which I am hoping there isn’t. I am trying to think of something fun to talk about that would be more amusing then my coffee however I fear breaking any HIPPA rules. I guess I could get away with this one. My thoughts of never having kids where reconfirmed the other day when this random persons water broke partial on my foot and I then got to see the start of an undruged birth! Hmmm I ran out of coffee…

Long time, no blog

So Ive been a blog bum lately and have been letting Keri do all the blogging.

We are mostly settled into the new house. The stuff that was piled into the garage on moving weekend is 85% unpacked and put away. The rest is waiting for the arrival of our industrial duty metal shelves (delivery by mOm and Dad, who are coming for turkey day).

I finally got parts for my BBQ! So now I am back to trying to think of anything and everything that I can cook on the grill. The little window in the living room next to where the BBQ is mounted makes for a perfect order window. I can open the window and holler "Order Up" across the room to Keri, who just looks at me like I'm retarded.



There is a botanical garden in the same area that Keri took the latest wave photos. When I finally pealed Keri's eye out of the viewfinder and away from the observation deck we walked through the gardens. The Japanese pond scape was my favorite and Keri took a cool picture of the fountain in the middle of the "Formal" garden.

New House + Really Big Waves

We have INTERNET!!! You don’t know how depended you are until you don’t have it. I didn’t know how to do my banking or how to look up a phone number!! Ok so we did but I was very unhappy the whole time knowing that there was a better, faster way.

We are all moved into our “new digs” as jess would say. Ok mostly moved in…. one day we will fit one car in our two car garage. The house is almost too nice, to the point where I don’t want to touch or break anything. .. Oh wait I already did that. Yep I put a nice dent in the new hardwood floors before we even moved anything in! Is anyone surprised…. sure not.

The puppies love their backyard and it is soooo nice to not have to get up in the middle of the night to let them go outside!! We got a doggie door so they are able to go outside whenever they want. Or until Zephy digs too much and gets locked in the house which makes her insufferably sad. In fact they love the yard so much that we actual left them home alone today and went to Shore Archers which doesn’t allow dogs; the waves are pretty amazing there.

So basically I am just trying to show some cool fun photos so someone might decide Coos Bay is the place I want to take my next vacation + we have a nice new house for you to stay in!!!

MOVED! NO INTERNET!

We are officially moved into our new digs-However, we do not have internet!

In case are wondering-Jessie is currently posting this in my place (that's right--hi everyone!-from Jess)

The dogs love their yard---Zephy cried when I told her to come inside and stop playing in the tiny dirt hole she happened to find in the yard. This is the pic above.

We should have the internet fixed by Saturday---so in the meantime if you need us...please call!

Rain!!!!!!!!!!

Well we have made it though Coos Bays first big storm! It has rained for the past three days and has been really windy; the waves even got up to 15ft!!! So of course I had to go and take some pictures. We also ran across a really weird sign, do you think the horses really fall over like that? I don’t know.

you can view more the first 11 photos are from today. http://picasaweb.google.com/kerimillendahl/PhotoArt#

SHOPPING!!!!!!!!!

New flash above Old Flash below

We went to Eugene today and went shopping I don’t think we have ever went on a shopping spree like this. Garage door openers, shampoo dispensers, new sheets, a door for the puppies, a shop vac, mail box, and most import a new flash for the camera. Why you may ask… Well I think the photos above explain it all.
YEA FOR FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our new house

As long as everything goes well we will close on the 15th of October and the house will be all ours and the yard will be over taken by the puppies!!! So thanks again for every ones help and input!

Also here is a pic of the beach and waves by our new house! Drew keeps telling me that he is going to disable the camera from taking photos of waves! I guess 1000 is to many.... oh well they are pretty.

Counter offer + kayaking

Well they made a Counter Offer to our Offer. We offered to pay full asking price while they paid closing and they pretty much said the only way they would pay closing cost is if they we paid it 5 or 6 extra with on the house.... so pretty much they will not pay the closing cost!!! GRRRR. The problem is they have already dropped the price 25000, and it comes with everything because it is the model home. Dishwasher, stove, microwave, fridge, washer, dryer, big screen TV. What to do what to do........

On the brighter side Drew went kayaking in the bay!!! And no zephy didn't fall in the the water.

House update part 1 + Vistors

It has been a busy but fun week!! We had Friends from Utah come and Visit so we spent a lot of time at the beach and we put an offer on the house so we should find out some more info next week. So thank you everyone for your input!!!

In the mean time here are some photos of Paula and Keith’s visit. It really is nice having visitors from Utah that don’t see the ocean that often, and are still amused by it. So often I think Drew gets tired of it way before the puppies and I do. The puppies would play until they passed out, if we would permit that. We had a hard time keeping everyone out of the water and ended up shopping for some new pants in the end. The puppies loved having visitors, and waited at their bedroom door until they got up so they could ambush them... so I guess you can't ask for anything else.

To buy or not to buy!?!?!?!?!?!

3 Bedroom 2 1/2 bathrooms 2 car garage a gas fireplace + a yard for the puppies built in 2008 AHHHH I want it. It seems kind of hard to find a new house here without having to put forth the effort to have it built yourself. So i would like some input from everyone else also there would be room for people to come see us!!

Dave Matthews at the Gorge

We went to George, Washington this weekend to see The Dave Matthews Band play at the Gorge. I was really sad that we couldn’t bring the nice camera into the concert on fear of having it confiscated so I brought our little camera and it died within the first five mins. But thanks to Utube I at less found something to share with everyone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1wr8FwOKC8
It was about a 12 hour drive because we took the longest possible route. Driving the coast of Oregon no matter how appealing it is, is not always the greatest approach. But on the bright side we found out that Dr. Pepper and Orange Sode tast like Pixy Sticks.
I also was determined to get a better picture than drew so I hosed down a tree and tried my hardest to get a better shot... oh well I guess Drew can win this round. You can see his a shot a few blogs down :)
