The Two Boys

I have finally gotten a chance to take new pictures of Rosco in his growing stages. The link will be posted at the end of this blog along with pictures of my wedding bands. All of the photos you'll see of Rosco are of Tyson working on his bite work and prey drive. It's really neat when you see it in action. Again, this Wednesday, Tyson took Rosco to training and he continues to impress Bob our trainer. The trainer and the other fellow officers started hiding dope in cars for Rosco to find, and he found it every time. Rosco is only 14 weeks! I'M EVEN IMPRESSED! The chief of Montgomery County PD (I think) was completely impressed as this was his first time seeing Rosco. He told the trainer that he wouldn't find it, and sure enough, Rosco proved him wrong. Bob is continuing Rosco on bite work, and ROSCO LOVES IT! He thinks he's playing. In about two weeks, we're going to have to stop him on bite work because he will be loosing puppy teeth. We don't want to hurt our baby! I know I talk about Rosco more than I do about Precious, but he's changing every day since he's a new pup. The only thing that changes on Precious is her haircut, and sometimes that's too scary to talk about. HA! She knows she's still my number one!

On another note, Tyson and I have officially ordered the save-the-date cards, so they should be at our apartment any day now for us to send out. I've checked out my month by month lists of things to do, and we're on top of everything and on schedule....if not a little ahead! We're so close to getting the BIG part of the wedding paid for, so then, we'll have about 8ish months to save up here and there for items that aren't included in our package. But, there's not much! I'm so excited! I know Tyson was stressing about all of this, and soon he will be able to relax.....................................hopefully...................that is if I can keep him from looking way too far in the future and taking things day by day. A little at a time that is. It is so amazing how involved and on top of everything he is with the wedding planning. You don't normally see grooms doing this. But, it is so helpful since I'm pretty much doing this on my own. I'm so excited to hear that Tyson is going to cover his Wednesday night extra job for the next two weeks so he can have a full 2 days off. I FULLY support him doing this because he needs a break, and we need some time together. His schedule is tiring both of us out right now. Right now, he's off getting a massage. Good for him.

All in all, everything is going good at the future Sutton household. Busy as usual! Don't forget to take a look at the new pictures of Rosco! Also! I have a few pictures up of the engagement ring as well as my wedding bands!

THE PICTURES OF ROSCO AND MY ENGAGEMENT RING AND WEDDING BANDS:

Ring, Dog....Life....

Well, Tyson and I jumped the gun and already bought my wedding band, or should I say, wedding bands. It is actually a solitaire enhancer that has two bands that wrap around the engagement ring. They both have diamonds going around the bands, and it really showcases the engagement ring since it is so unique. When we were talking about what we were going to do for a band with my engagement ring, I had this idea in my head that I did not want an enhancer because I thought it would be a little much since the engagement ring is so lavish in itself. After looking at a few places, Tyson really wanted to look at rings at Jared's since he's such a fan of that place. We saw many that worked, but none that we LOVED. Tyson suggested looking at enhancers. I was a little hesitant, but, ironically, it ended up working out the best. Let's just say it definitely screams, "Hello I'm married," and when all three rings are attatched..............OH BOY does it sparkle! I kept asking the jeweler with worry that my hand was too petite to have the amount of rings that I had on my hand. Both Tyson and the lady reminded me that it looked beautiful. All in all, I LOVE it! It makes the whole package look different, and there are things about this wedding that I want to be a little different and not so traditional. Also, it definitely accentuates the engagement ring (which is an heirloom I might add), and shows of the beauty of it. It's perfect and I'm happy.

Tyson took Rosco to training today and they started him on bite work. From what I hear, Rosco is did awesome for his very first time!!! The trainer predicts that he will be ready for competition NEXT YEAR! I was amazed because I thought that was a little early, but they see him really progressing fast. I'm proud of my boy! He's such a smarty pants! Rosco keeps growing in size. I'm going to have to post more pictures. He's getting so big! He's starting to tower over my little Precious, but I don't think she's noticing it......or maybe she does???? But, she still plays with him and gets along with him really well. She'll jump on Rosco, and Rosco will lie on his back to let her win, so she'll growl pretending to be a big mean dog while she's pouncing on him. It's HILARIOUS!!! I'll have to post a video of it.

On a final note! I would just like to say that I'm finished with all of my classes this semester and I walked out with ALL A's!!! I think I'm motivated to wear one of those big sashy type of things around my shoulders at my graduation next year since I never got to wear one for my high school graduation.......HA!

Engagement Photos!

We have officially taken them, and they are now up to view! Yayyy!!!

Our friend Lauren so graciously took the time out of her day to take our pictures for us. I was so grateful. They turned out BEAUTIFUL and I am so excited! I love looking at them over and over!

Below is the link to the pictures. The ones I posted are almost every single one we did. We actually took about 240, but I didn't post all because some were doubles.

Right now, we're in the process of choosing which ones we love and then getting them all re-touched and fancied up. The one's you're viewing are the raw originals. Let Tyson and I know which ones you like! We would love your opinions since we love so many. It'll help us narrow it down.


HERE ARE THE ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS:

Take Your Fiance to Work Day

I would just like to say that this Tuesday, May 6, Tyson and I are going to take our engagement pictures!!! YAY!!!! I can't seem to decide on what we're going to wear. I'm toggling between two ideas. I'm almost thinking that I might just have us bring the two outfits I'm considering to be photographed in since I can't make up my mind. Oh decisions, decisions! But, anyways, hopefully we'll get the pictures developed quickly after taking them so I can post them up for everyone to see.

This past Wednesday, I stayed home sick, and I pretty much layed on the couch all day. Tyson was gone all day at K9 training, and when he got home, he was supposed to go to his extra job. I was looking all sad and everything because we never get to really be with and see each other often, and I most certainly was sad that I was going to stay at home sick by myself. All of the sudden, he got this bright idea to bring me to his extra job. It is one where all he has to do is sit in his car and watch over a business. This was a PERFECT opportunity for us to spend time with each other because he couldn't grab the remote and watch the T.V. HA! All in all, it was nice to spend some quality time just sitting in a car together.

While Tyson was at K9 training this Wednesday, the trainer told Tyson some more stuff that he's figuring out about Rosco. Apparently, while the trainer was teaching Rosco to "Platz" (lie down) Rosco was lying down, but, at the same time, creeping towards the treat. The trainer kept saying, "Ah! Fooey!" to tell him, "No," and that he wasn't going to get it till he was pefectly lying down. After a few of the Ah Fooeys, the trainer was talking to Tyson. All of the sudden Rosco sneakily just lied down still. The trainer told Tyson, "Aha! Did you see that! He knew all along, but he's looking into how to do the least amount of work to get the treat! He's smart." Basically, the trainer says we have a very smart dog. This can be both good and bad. It's good because he'll learn quickly, but it's bad because he will try to out smart us. We're going to have to keep on our toes with him. Overall, Rosco is quite the handful and is TOTALLY different compared to what Precious was like as a puppy. I tell Rosco every day, "I'm glad that I'm young while raising you or else I wouldn't be able to keep up with you." I still love him to death though even if he drives me crazy most days.
