life is starting to get back into a "normal" routine. the day after i got back from england, i started my new job at a new high school and it has been busy since! getting used to getting up early is never fun but the jet lag actually played in my favor on that one.

since i've gotten back, i've gotten to spend lots of time with brian & the girls watching the olympics. it's one of our favourite times but it also means lots of lost sleep - for some reason, they keep putting volleyball late at night. as brian says, it only happens once every 4 years (technically two but we only get volleyball once every four).

other than that, it's been life as usual in the crisp house. our two weimie babies love to snuggle and we think it's soooo fun so on any given night, this is the scene you will probably find in our house:




it's a rough life addie has found herself in :) she's obviously had a hard time adapting to life around our house ;) we are so lucky to have gotten such a great dog that is so well adjusted & sweet! we love our ryleaquinn & addison savannah :)

finally home.

mum & i got back monday (we were both not looking forward to getting back because we had to go back to work on tuesday:( ). it was soooo nice to be home but it was great getting to see all the family! instead of posting my pictures on here (there are ALOT), they're all on my picture site - link on the left.

it's back to work for me. it's hard but at least i don't have classes this year which is a definite bonus. i miss summer already and i'm on day 2 of work :)

football season (aTm) starts in two and a half weeks and i can't wait!!

that's all for now - i've still got a little jet lag so it's hard to put together too many thoughts...

While the cat's away...

While Amy is in England, the dogs are doing what they always do:
Playing...

and napping...

hi from london.

so i've up & left brian at home with our two little girls :) i'm in london right now visiting my family and having fun. life at our house was fun before i left. having 4 dogs in the house definitely was an experience - especially with a grumpy pound puppy (my parent's dog, baley)! when my parent's two dogs went home, our house seemed very peaceful - even with the new addition to our family. having addie has definitely made our lives easier. they keep each other company and wear each other out. we can take them on walks when it cool off at night instead of in the heat of the day. we are loving it!! i'll have to post pictures of them soon!
so back to london. mum & i are over here for my cousin's wedding as well as to help my grandpa sort his flat out before moving to a new one. so far we are having a great time!! here are a few pics in the garden to enjoy...
