Dana is my older sister. She still lives in Oregon, in the town we grew up in. In addition to her day job, Dana breeds Chihuahuas and Pembroke Welsh Corgis and sells scrapbooking supplies. Here are all of the entries which mention Dana.

photos from oregon finally online

It took me long enough, but the photos from my trip to Oregon are finally ready. They are captioned, selectively, because I wasn't about to write eighty-one captions...

four answers to every question

Sorry to bore you with another meme (yeah right, according to my stats you love them!). Angela at mommy bytes combined an e-mail meme with similar questions she found on four other blogs into a massive four things meme...

christmas gifts and celebrations

Since I can't afford to buy gifts for everyone in my family this Christmas, I've decided I will at least send a Christmas bouquet or centerpiece to my Mom's house. Or maybe a Christmas gift basket from 1-800-Flowers...

one year update on vixen

Today is Vixen's first birthday! It's hard to believe she's a year old already, especially since she's only been with us for eight months...

twenty-nine and still counting

You can rest assured that I will never be one of those women who lies about her age. I will always be exactly the age I say I am, unless of course I get senile and lose count...

announcing the quiz prizes

Yesterday when I posted the quiz scores, I didn't mention anything about prizes because I had a dilemma: two first place winners, and only one prize to give away. So I needed more time to figure out what to do about that...

want to come for a visit?

I hate to just take a vacation with no plans of any type, because we'll just end up wasting the vacation days sitting at home doing nothing. So what I'd really like is to have someone come visit me...

precious pup

Brooskey is maturing more every day and we look forward to all the fun we're going to have with him when he's full grown. And I'm already madly in love with this little girl, even before ever seeing her in person...

iconic insanity

Oh yeah, and it's still not decorated. Turns out it's even more difficult to find time to decorate a tree with a puppy, than it is to wrap gifts...

dolphin discovery

After the dolphin interaction, we were pretty fatigued from all the swimming, so we decided to go ahead and get dressed, and walk around taking pictures around the park until dinnertime. We found a steel drum band playing on the beach, and there were guides scattered around the park carrying some other, non-aquatic tropical animals for guests to interact with...

double tripping

The trip was great, but way too short. I only got to spend two days at my parents' house with them, my sister Lacey, and her three munchkins... and about the same amount of time with my older sister Dana...

What's also nice is to have a brand new water heater, which we can reasonably trust not to give out and flood the condo anytime in the near future...

holiday meme

In our house it was tradition to leave all of the Christmas lights on, including the tree, all night on Christmas Eve. The outside lights were to guide Santa to our house, and the tree lights to allow him to see while he worked...
