you know it's been a interesting month when...

you lose your job (for no good reason, mind you...)

your big hairy dog eats your favorite shoes

your little tiny dog breaks a leg and has to have it removed
(new nickname?
Tripod.)

(pre-surgery)





(post-surgery 1 week. She's obviously doing JUST FINE)

you get bit a million and one times by mosquitos and no-see-ums on your first time out hunting.

you get billed by an attorney who never even met you, or helped you.

It's like a bad commercial:

*the opportunity to have a 3 minute phone conversation with an attorney ......$80
*Internet to get Email to get notice of bill ......$30
*Talking the attorney out of said bill with wit and wisdom...PRICELESS.

We appreciate your prayers for us, we really do. We know something good will happen soon.
Love, Trent, Kari and kids and dogs and cat
