Dinosaur Bone

We bought Hank a new bone to chew on the other day. We like to get the real bones that are covered in flavor because Hank has jaws of steel and demolishes the fake ones. So, speaking of jaws of steel. We bought him a bone that was probably 10 inches long, and was a femur from some animal. He loved it, but apparently thought it would be a good time to eat the bone. He broke off the femoral head in one bite and then split the bone in half with another bite. I obviously took it from him and threw it away so he wouldn't choke. Ryan and I both felt bad for having to take his brand new bone away, so Ryan went out the next day to get a bigger version. Well, the next size up was apparently a femur from a brontosaurus. This bone is HUGE! Hank, of course, loves it and thankfully has yet to demolish it. Also, he doesn't chew on his toys when we're gone so I don't have to worry about him breaking off a chunk and choking while I'm at work, what a good puppy. Anyhow, I took some pictures of him working on this Dino bone because it looks silly. Enjoy!

P.S. We will be sending out a photo christmas card in the next few days via e-mail, so keep an eye out.

Oops Update

My phone works as of 9:00p Wednesday, so you can call me now! Yay for my self-healing phone!

Ooops....

I started my morning off with an oops. I dropped my cell phone in the toilet, rather it fell out of my pocket into the toilet. It was a clean, flushed toilet so I was able to reach in a scoop it out very quickly, but the damage was done. Whenever it is on, closed or open, it just goes crazy dialing numbers, setting speed dials, changing options, and taking pictures. I am also falling into the oops category because I realized I decided to not get the cheap $2 insurance that covers your phone in situations such as these...oops. So, I called Verizon and they said remove the battery and let it sit for a day or two and it should be OK, but if not I can activate an old phone. Thankfully I have my old phone, so if I have to activate I can. So, if you need to get a hold of me tomorrow, call Ryan's phone. If you don't have his number you can get it from Derek or Mom, I'm not dumb enough to post it on here. As of right now my phone is still on the fritz and I feel like there may be no hope for it, but we shall see. Well, I'm off to bake my praline pecan pumpkin cake (say that five times fast) for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and remember what you're thankful for, especially during the hard economic times.
