{Insert Clever Title Here}

Did y'all see the new background?? Thanks Katherine Faith and Amy D. for the help.

Today is going to be SOO random, so hang with me =).

First off we need to recognize the best dog who ever lived, yes Gumdrop =)
Gumdrop
 I mean how can you not love that face? Of all her years on this earth, I would like to say none of them were stressful. Even when she would lay in the middle of our old street, with a car coming toward her, and when they would honk she would just lift her head and look. I always thought if she could talk she would have said, "Excuse me? Why are you interrupting my nap? I only get to nap 23 hours of the day, please leave me be." As she would lay her head back down and not move.

The best part had to be my mom. No matter when this happened or where Mom was, her head would pop up when she would hear that honk and go "Oh no, Gumdrop". Don't worry not one of these car encounters ever ended bad which is a huge blessing. But she really was one of the best dogs anyone could have asked for. Yes, she was a little big for a lap dog, but we all loved her. Even if sometimes she wasn't on top of the dog magnets at Grandad's. Love you Gum.


On to the next random note (which isn't that random because one time Gumdrop found a leftover Easter egg from our annual Easter egg hunt at Gabby & Grandads, well found it like a month later is more like it, and rolled herself all in, like a pig and smelled so terrible). Pretty sure mom cleaned her, thanks mom =).

But anyway why I thought of that is when I was looking for jobs on the UA HR website I found this...
