Sunday morning we slept lat (after quite a long weekend) and worked out in the yard. Carissa's dog, Stella LOVES to cart around branches, weeds, etc. We don't even need to buy her toys!
Stella attacking Fluffy, my cat...it happens ALL THE TIME and the cat screams at her, but lets the dog chew on her anyways.
This is the mangy cat after being chewed on.

Sunday night we went to church and go to see lots of fun people...we also had Shaina and Lindsey over after church to eat. So, even though we only had leftovers, we had an amazing time!
Today mom went home after lunch and it was sad to see her go! I am glad to get some rest this week and have nothing to do, but we had SUCH A BLAST! I love finding new fun things to do in the Dallas area and love having mom here for a surprise, so it was great :)

WOW! I had a cat named Fluffy growing up! She allowed all kinds of abuse (little kids [not me!] carrying her by the neck) and NEVER scratched or "complained" about it, as if she knew that they were kids who didn't know any better!
