Alli's Getting Hitched

Alli accepted Eric Curtis' proposal of marriage on Tuesday, March 10th. The wedding will take place at the Myhre residence on September 12th.

Meet Patton

Patton is a 7 week old, terrier mix rescue puppy from the Dallas SPCA Shelter. He weighs 8 lbs and has an average temperature of 102 F. Okay, enough with all the superfluous details. Kent adopted Patton on Saturday afternoon after finding him on the shelter's web site. It was love at first sight and the feeling is entirely mutual. Patton is affectionate, playful and surprisingly getting along well with both his crate and potty training. Kent is an attentive master, and the two make quite an adorable pair. With Patton around, I'm now outnumbered, but it's okay, I think they both like me well enough to keep me around another week, ten days (Myhreism). 

Stars v. Ducks (formerly Mighty)

Kent and I enjoyed some weekend hockey action at the American Airlines Center on Saturday. The Dallas Stars faced off against the Anaheim Ducks. I was disappointed to learn that the Star's west coast opponent no longer used their Disney-famous title of The MIGHTY Ducks, but were now simply the Ducks. They also no longer make use of the Flying V nor the triple deke. Oh, the times, they are a changing. 

Despite their abandoned offensive threats, the Ducks still managed to outscore the Stars, entertaining me with 7 total goals and 2 fist fights. I also included pictures of the Stars dancers and the ice girls who periodically scrape the shavings off the ice during time-outs. Yes, they are wearing boob shirts and low rider pants. I guess that is just one more possible meaning for the term "reaching for the stars."
