-Tree- Juhree and I planted a tree last night. We bought it from Home Depot and planted it ourselves. It is a Southern Red Oak aka Spanish Oak. It will grow to be about 60ft. tall. Take a look at planting from start to finish here.

-Duke update- Duke had his ears trimmed last Tuesday. The vet said that he did really well. He doesn’t feel any pain, just has the urge to scratch his ears as they itch while they heal. To protect his ears from his scratching we had to put an e-collar (cone) on him. I hate to have to do it, but it is what’s best. His stitches will be taken out next Tuesday and will begin the taping procedures.

A weekend at home. Juhree, Duke, and I spent our first weekend home in few weeks. It was nice to spend the weekend doing things around the house. We are slowly working on buying furniture and decorations. It will take some time but we want to make sure that we get what we really want.

Duke learned how to climb the stairs.

-Pool Table- We drove to Odessa over the 4th of July weekend and brought home a pool table. A crew came out yesterday to assemble and re-cloth the table.
