Pretty Little Penny

!Hey Hey Hey!
Hope everyone is doing well, the Mr. and I have been pretty busy the past little while
Yes, that includes endless episodes of
Friday Night Lights

Husband has been putting up our fence, and I'm happy to announce that it is complete!!
I'm so proud of him!
I looks Awesome, I don't have pictures yet but you can use your imagination
It definitely completes the house
Tuck and Aspen sure love it

No more being couped up in the house all day until we get home!
You'd think that having them in the back yard all day would make em a little tired
...
No..
It doesn't
well not for tuck anyway.

Jake and I took the pups for a walk yesterday,
I made Jake walk Aspen so i could attempt to "train" tuck in Walking!
Not speed walking
Not running
just Walking
Simple task right?
No wrong
Observe the following
Notice the urgency in tucks body language?
That's how it was the
ENTIRE
TIME
I had to "assume the position"
whats the position??

I pulled this one off google
but just imagine the legs spread a little wider and her back more parallel to the ground

He was ridiculous!
Jake laughed every time I changed my normal voice to my
"large and in charge" "I'm the owner""man" voice
and would grunt
"HEAL"

Dang dog still didn't get it. Any tips!?
Speaking of dogs..
My sister and I pulled this one off the street in my neighborhood
Now this isn't the first experience we've had "saving" dogs "lost" in neighborhoods
I think this time we realized its better they just find their own way home alone

We went to find the owner and turns out we yanked this sucker right off her front lawn
No, we didn't admit to the owner. So we just told her she was down around the corner.
Of the fence in the front yard!!
Whoops!
...............................
(insert jaws theme song here)
Check out those pearly whites!



Before I get into those, let me explain
I am a die hard Dr. pepper addict
its an issue
a BIG one!
I can't go a DAY without the sweet dew

On a good day I'll have 2 maybe 3
32 oz
Clear Cup
Extra Ice
and
Skinny Straw
Dr Peppers a day

Yes that's the only way I'll drink it.
I love it I really do, but my stomach dropped when i saw this:


Its hard to see but if you can, look close at the circled spots
See the
dark
gross
CAVITY!!
I have my one and only sweet sweet Dr. Pepper to thank for those!
I couldn't believe it
 I came to realization that i needed to cut back on the dr pepper intake
not only because of the cavities but for my health sake as well.

So, I asked you guys what to do via facebook
                        Anyone know of a good replacement drink for a Dr.Pepper addict?
Here were some of my favorites:

Kaitlin Vernon Ah you poor thing. I cut out coke and drink coconut water when I crave something sweet.
-I'm for sure going to try it out.

Taylor Metcalf Lemonade :) but don't listen to me I'm downin a dp as we speak ha
-That's what Best Friends are For

Lindy Gubler Gale Water!! Jk Jess. Good luck.
-I'm going to need all the luck i can get!

-hahaha I love it!!

And to top it off......

Cailey Boren Nothing. Dp is gods gift to earth. Don't even attempt cutting down!! Anything but dp is garbage.
-TRUTH!

There were many others following, I thank for your great ideas!!

Any other Tips would be much Appreciated!
Its been
44 Hours sense my last Dr Pepper
Be Proud!
I nearly caved today during lunch
As a stood in subway staring at the drink dispenser
my finger hovered over the Dr. pepper button for a good minute
I thought, I had made it "this far" (not far at all)
i cant go back now!
and quickly dispensed power aid
which by the way tastes like crap...
I texted Jake and the conversation goes as follows

Dr.Pepper Addict: "Babe, You'll never Believe what I'm drinking out of my cup right now"
Doubting Husband:" Well i know what it is not...;) ANYTHING healthy... Like water or Juice
Rehab Dr Pepper user: Sense you wont believe the words coming out of my mouth..

Shocked Proud Husband: "Wooooww Babe! Looks Like your getting ready for mud!

THAT I AM!
