Mother's Day

    Happy Mothers Day!! Normally for Mother's Day I'd just make breakfast and clean the house. But because of the 'rocky road' of a year my mom and I have had. I decided to do something a little more special. We have had this old rusty milk can just sitting in our garage for years. My mom has been talking about turning it into some kind of planter, for as long as I can remember. So this year I made that idea come true.

Picture credited to me!

 This project took me about 12 hours to make but it was worth it. I sanded down the milk can for about 5-6 hours. There was so much rust that I actually had to weld to new piece metal to the can when I was sanding. After this whole sanding process it was time to decorate. After 3 cans of spray paint and some stencils, I was finished. I had a lot of fun working on this project and the reaction on my mother's face this morning was priceless. Now the only thing left to do is have her pick out a plant or two and plant them in the top.

    I love my mother so much. Even though her and I don't have the best of relationships. We try and that's what matters. To never stop trying is what keeps us from fighting 24-7. So no matter the relationship you have with your mother wish her a Happy Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day!

My Only Siblings Are Dogs...

     I am only child with two awesome non-human siblings. Reyna is a 12 year old black lab whose 12th birthday, we celebrated on monday. My brother is Radar, he is 8 years old, his birthday is April ----. My siblings mean the world to me and are totally awesome.

    Most people that I know have some kind of pet, though most tend to have a dog or cat. If you have a pet then you know what I mean when I say that I love my dogs.

    To celebrate Reyna's birthday we made a doggie birthday cake with a peanut butter and honey frosting. Aswell they each got their own burger. Now we don't normally feed our dogs such unhealthy foods but since it was a special occasion, we decided to treat them to a great meal. Afterward though they fell asleep and didn't move for about an hour.

    My Reyna is getting older, and with age comes issues. She is having many joint issues and can't even get into the car or onto the couch without help anymore.  I don't like seeing the people/dogs I love in pain. So we try our best to help her have the best time we can. During the summer we go to the lake, while Radar runs up and down the beach, Reyna does a little swimming. We go for short walks and play ball. We still have a lot of fun as a family. But I hope that she will make it through the year and hopefully even though my highschool years.

    My other dog, Radar, is a sweetheart but he would love to eat a pug and despises most dogs. He is my alarm clock. When he hears my alarm in the morning he comes running downstairs and jumps on top of me to get me out of bed. I tell that getting tackled by a  80 lbs dog first thing in the morning gets you up.

     So that is a little bit about my awesome dogs. Please leave some comments about what I should blog about!!
