The process of falling in love.....

After that first night Tj was the only thing I thought about! I had told my mom all I wanted was a southern boy, and low and behold I found one....in Tonopah, NV.....at karaoke! We texted constantly and spent every evening together watching movies and getting to know each other. (Of course Khloee came along with us everywhere!) Within a week we were an "official couple" and our adventures began!

Our first trip out to the ranch to visit Grandpa Lynn and Aunt Dixie. Tj was so excited to meet "a real cowboy" and listen to all of Grandpa's stories! That trip he met Uncle Dean and Aunt Donna also. He talked race horses with everybody and that very day I realized he was going to fit into our family better than I do! :)

One day TJ and dad went mining and Jess, Jason, Dacoda, Jeremy, mom and I all headed to Bishop, CA to watch The Hunger Games. Mom and I went into the pet store and I saw Tank and Dozer...fell in love and brought them home. Thank goodness Tj's Birthday was right around the corner so I used that as an excuse for the two new puppies! :) This picture was taken right when we got home and I introduced Tj and Khlo to their new family members! A crazy adventure was up ahead of us that's for sure.  After the newness had set in and the dreaded potty training had started I constantly said (and still say) "why did you buy these puppies babe??!?!" Better to put the blame on him than take it all myself ;)
