Since we last spoke...

Wow since we last spoke.. a few things have happened.. so time to update! Well first, we recently visited Philly.. OH YES! We enjoyed some yummy cheesesteaks & danced the night away at Cuba Libre!

(Some yummy cheesesteaks!)

Afterwards we came home for my niece's 4th birthday party! What a celebration that was! We did the pinata, enjoyed a cupcake tower, played with some snakes... okay I lied, they did- not me!

(More fun from the party.. Makayla was getting the pinata!)

Then lastly, Penny has started doggy training classes! She was a little rowdy in the beginning when she saw the other dogs & then a few minutes later....

Yup, she laid down (in the street) an just cuddled with daddy! What a blessing! She really became a barker, but once we got inside, she was distracted soon after & then was focused on learning her new commands & practicing old ones! I'll post more pics from the class, once we continue them. We've been teaching Preemo the same things (mainly the hand motions) just to make sure that we can have them both on the same level.. an wow they both learn fast! This clicker training is something else! I'm excited for her next class this week! 

Studying.. YEAH

So I'm preparing to teach the High School Girls bible study tomorrow night. I'm tired after a long day at work.. an it sure was busy... BUT the Lord is good & giving me some strength to keep pushing through & getting this study prepared. Looks like we're going over 1 John 1:5-10 & 1 John 2:1-6... should be exciting! It's definitely fun getting to prepare to teach the Bible to these knowledgeable young ladies, who desire to study their word! Praise God for an awesome group of young ladies!
