My BIGGEST Rescue yet!

Chris and I minister to a family that lives in the area of Black Water on the Pima Indian Reservation--pretty much next to Coolidge, AZ.  3 momma dogs on this property had puppies all within the same week.  The result:  25 unplanned/unwanted puppies.

Thank goodness for Lost Our Home Pet Rescue.  If it weren't for them, there is NO WAY I could keep rescuing these sweet babies.  With this large number of pups, I was allowed to use the official LOH van.

I'm SOOO OFFICIAL!!!

I loaded up with 17 of the 25 puppies and off to LOH they went for treatments/shots/surgeries.  They were then split up into smaller groups and put into foster homes for 1-2 weeks where they could finally get some much needed one-on-one attention.

2 weeks later, I get another text asking me to take 4 more puppies because the people who were "supposed" to come get them never did.  So I went out once again and gathered up these 4 handsome boys.  In honor of President's Day coming up this month, I made these my "Presidential Pups."  They go up for adoption this next week!  

So 21 puppies off the Rez and on to their BEST LIVES!  LOH ROCKS!

My Puppy is THE CUTEST EVER!!!

Yep!  Sorry everyone!  I got the CUTEST PUPPY EVER!!!  No other puppy is as cute as my Lola Mae Sunshine New Moon Meeker:) . (That's her full Christian/Native American name:)

She's coming up on 4 months old and just LOOK AT HER: 

Puppy PERFECTION

The time she got a half-full
red Gatorade bottle and punctured
it with her puppy teeth:)

It's just Gatorade thank goodness:)

Max is 15!

Nothing really exciting happens when you turn 15 around here--this is when I let Carlie dye her hair red:) . But here is our Max.  He's a 6 foot 15 year old man child:) . All he wanted this year was his home-cooked fried chicken dinner, Si Senor out-to-eat dinner, ice cream cake, and Air Jordan basketball shoes.  (Oh and an all boy-campout that will happen this summer).

One of my favorite videos of him right here:  (dang, he's SOOO handsome:)

Even though Carlie is no longer home, Tatum will NOT be out-done by her.  So in true Tatum-fashion, she decided to finish her YW Medallion in a year because #1-it would be faster than when Carlie did it and #2-the Church has come out with a newer program and so this program is now over.

Whatever her reasons, Tatum Jane is AMAZING and we are crazy proud of her and her drive to exceed in everything she does.  Here she is with the other Santan Branch girls who earned their YW Medallions as well.
