Santa Came Early This Year!!

Christmas started a little early this year!!
Brandon has wanted a Rhodesian Ridgeback for a couple of years and so we decided to start looking, but never seemed to be able to find one here in AZ. So this past weekend Brandon had the idea to look on azcentral.com and we actually found someone who happened to have a litter of puppies! We originally wanted to adopt one from a shelter but were not able to find one so we decided to call about the puppies.  So needless to say we ended up leaving with a puppy! He is 7 weeks old and the cutest thing I have ever seen, we named him Banks. Diesel is still getting used to him, but once he is a little bigger he will be able to play on Diesel's level.  

This picture shows you just how big Banks already is even though he is only 7 weeks old. Diesel weighs about 120 lbs Banks is going to be a big boy just like his older brother!

This picture shows the ridge on Bank's  back which is a characteristic of the ridgeback.


This is Bank's favorite place to sleep besides our bed!

Halloween!

For Halloween this year Brandon and I went trick-or-treating with Brandon's sister Kristi and her two boys Cayden and Jaxon. Cayden was Chicken Little and Jaxon was the cutest tiger I have ever seen! It was so much fun watching Cayden go up to the door and saying knock knock before he actually knocked on the door! The first house we went to Cayden knocked on the door and once the lady opened it he ran right in, it was hilarious. Thanks for letting us go trick-or-treating with you guys we had so much fun, and thanks for letting borrow your pictures from the night Kristi(my family would have been mad if I didn't post any!)



Cayden as Chicken Little and Jaxon as the cutest Tiger! 


Cayden had to hold someone's hand while we walked and he only wanted to hold Brandon's, it was really cute! 
Brandon's mom had some really cute pumpkin lights along her walk way and Cayden kept running up to them and kicking them. It was really funny, so Brandon had to keep running after him to stop him! 

At one house they had this monster that would lift up his own head while it lit up and talked. Cayden was fascinated by it.


Cayden informed me that he was holding me and not the other way around!
