I need all of your help, it seems Annie is missing. Annie is the SWEET, yellow pup that we brought home. It would appear that sometime within this past week, Annie has gone missing. Annie has been replaced by a crazed, juiced up, "there's no stopping me" puppy. The "new" Annie is not a force to be messing with at any given point. The new Annie turns into a cyclone and takes no prisoners to include but are not limited to: the dish towel, the dish rag, her squirt bottle, Eric's work boots' laces, Eric's work boots' inserts, socks of all kinds both clean and dirty, any toy left to fend for itself, magazines, electrical cords, the hose, the lawn, etc... and LET THERE BE TOILET PAPER. I was unaware that you can actually TP the INSIDE of a house, imagine that! The new Annie has taken the word "sassy" to a whole new level. Unafraid of anything, it would appear that the vacuum cleaner and the lawn mower have met their match.
So I am asking all of you, if you find that sweet puppy that Eric and I brought home at the end of June please return her to us. If you need to contact us we will be hiding under our bed.
Sincerely,
Erin, Eric, Reese, and Toby

Lots of Laughs
I received this email from TWO of my friends and laughed just as hard both of the times I read through it. I posted it today to give you all a good laugh to get through your Thursday!!! -ENJOY!
1) This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles. (Kelly, age 6)
2) Oysters' balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)
3) If you are surrounded by ocean you are an Island . If you don't have ocean all round you, you are incontinent. ( Wayne , age 7)
4) Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily Richardson . She's not my friend any more. (Kylie, age 6)
5) A dolphin breaths through an asshole on the top of its head. (Billy, age 8)
6) My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men, a woman and some pots and comes back with crabs. ( Millie, age 6)
7) When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the ocean. Sometimes when the wind didn't blow the sailors would whistle to make the wind come My brother said they would have been better off eating beans. (William, age 7)
8) Mermaids live in the ocean. I like mermaids. They are beautiful and I like their shiny tails, but how on earth do mermaids get pregnant? Like, really? (Helen, age 6)
9) I'm not going to write about the ocean. My baby brother is always crying, my Dad keeps yelling at my Mom, and my big sister has just got pregnant, so I can't think what to write (Amy, age 6)
10) Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting. Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug themselves into chargers at night. (Christopher, age 7)
11) When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very cold, and it makes my willy small. (Kevin, age 6)
12) Divers have to be safe when they go under the water. Divers can't go down alone, so they have to go down on each other. (Becky, age 8)
13) On vacation my Mom went water skiing. She fell off when she was going very fast. She says she won't do it again because water fired right up her big fat ass. (Julie, age 7)
14) The ocean is made up of water and fish. Why the fish don't drown I don't know. (Bobby, age 6)
15) My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all about the ocean. What he doesn't know is why he quit being a sailor and married my mom. (James, age 7)

Lunch With A Puppy
As many of you are WELL aware the dogs in our family are SPOILED. My dogs many times spend the day out at the farm while I am at work. Reese and Toby hang out in pen and Annie is in the house in a crate. Annie has three "Aunts" that care for her during the day: Aunt Jillian, Aunt Sue, and Aunt Tracy. I receieved this email yesterday from Jillian and laughed so very hard as I could picture this entire ordeal in my mind. I have a picture of Faust that I took sometime ago that I have provided as the main photo today; I am guessing he was sporting this same look after lunch. ~Enjoy!!!
LUNCH WITH A PUPPY:
So, I spent the first 10 minutes picking various cottonwood fluff out of her mouth, then gave her a branch with which to strip the leaves off of. That took less than 2 minutes. She then proceeded to do impressive Olympic diving manuevers which included, but not limited to, the pike, the half-gainer and triple flips. Backwards. Finally I called in the heavy artillary and said to Faust "You're up!" He heaved a sigh, flopped down next to Annie, and suffered through variations of: DEATH TO THE TAIL! DEATH TO THE GREAT HEAD AND EARS! DEATH AND DESTRUCTION TO THE BELLY! I hurridly stuffed salad in my mouth while Fausty carnage was committed. I had to laugh - there was tufts of Faust-fluff floating around the yard. Not as much as the cottonwood, but enough you could tell the difference. Hah!Annie did learn Auntie Jillian hates to be jumped on and raked down her sunburned legs with tiny puppy claws.She's back in her crate after drinking a TON of water. (Slaying the mighty Faust is Hard Work!)

Woodland's She's A Pistol aka "Annie"
We picked up our little girl last week and have had a ball with her ever since. I will say that this little girl sleeps through the night from 10-5, LOVE that about her. Annie was originally named Macy but my sister Kelly quickly informed me that Macy sounds too much like Reesie (which is what we call Reese most of the time). The morning after we got her I was abruptly woken up out of a deep sleep by a crash downstairs. I ran downstairs to see Eric laying flat on his face in the kitchen and Macy was over on the other side of the room by the back door. Eric had said that he tripped over her and that was the reason for his fall. I later looked up the meaning of the name Macy and it means "weapon", so it HAD to go. Saturday night I was at a movie night with a bunch of girlfriends and we were talking about Macy. I was telling everyone how confident she was and how she was just such a pistol, and that the name Macy had to go. It was suggested by Lisa that I name her "She's a Pistol" and call her Annie or Oakley. PERFECT!!!! Annie is the perfect name for the pup and she responds well to it. BTW in case you were wondering Annie means Blessed with Grace or Favored Grace.....again PERFECT. I had forgotten how much work puppy's can be and going back to work next week will be a walk in the park compared to chasing a puppy around all week. I hope that you enjoy the video of Reese and Annie playing in the living room, I filmed it today. Reese has loved Annie from the start, Toby has just now stopped threatening her life every time Annie happens to look in her direction (she'll come around).
