Isn't my husband nice? Took the picture AND labeled it! I'm looking old- must be the dry climate. Luckily I have my sense of humor to keep me feeling young! Is there a hair color out there that will let me look just like my dog?

The view of Mt. Charleston from our dusty backyard. The fence is quite high, so it's great for privacy, but not so great for views!

The dog on the left is Troy, our first chinese crested. He's a sweetie, but not the healthiest of dogs. He's only 6 pounds!

Our second chinese crested. Lucky is 4 1/2 month's old. She's a fireball, but soft as can be. Steven has taken over her ownership and sleeps with her. I'm co-owning her until the breeder has bred her, and then she becomes mine to show or breed or both.

Our newest chinese crested! She's 3 years old and 1 point away from her championship. She is sitting on my lap right now, shivering b/c she's cold. Have to go get her sweater.

Here are my boys. Ten points if you can figure out which is Calvin and which is Eric. Steven, of course, is the one with the rat! This picture was taken a few months ago. They are much browner now (the boys, not the rats). BTW, Maddy wants to breed the little buggers (the rats, not the boys), if anyone might be interested in a pup.
Charlene and Casey were here a few days ago. Charlene hates rats. We were sitting at the table when Calvin rolled a ball under the table- "Watch out, Charlene!" Casey says, "a rat's running loose!". . .
I guess you had to be there.

This is our neighborhood- our house is the one on the right (not the one with the van in the driveway, but the one right next to it). The houses are very close together, but they all have block walls separating them, so they feel private. They go way back - much bigger than they look. We have the nicest neighborhood in the valley, so far, but I'd still like to have land!

Playing piano- my favorite and most effective way to unwind (not so for the listeners of said activity!)
