Astros Win!

Day 80 / Post 54

Here is a new photo of me and Duke checking out the Astros game on TV. I was a win so we were both happy. I got the win and Duke got a treat. I think if this keeps up he will become a hard core Astros fan. The Astros have finally got above 500, it is about time. Duke has just turned 4 months old and is getting fat. He is up to about 10 pounds. It may not sound like much but he is not supposed to get above 15 pound in his normal size.

Christi & Animals, Post #1

Day 74 / Post 48

Repost for Friday, April 13, 2007

I think it is time for a new series of photos. Therefore, I have decided to do a Christi animal series. We all know that Christi loves animals, just as long as she doesn’t have to be involved with the animals.

This picture is of Christi holding Duke when we first brought him home in December, he has grown since then. It took Clay about 2 years of begging before he was allowed to get a dog. This photo could be considered an omen for things to come, but I don’t want to give away the story line. Check back tomorrow for another piece in this new puzzle.

Mom's New Friend

Day 15 /
Post 10

OK, this is not exactly a pay back post for Christi but I thought that it was time to give her a post on the blog. Mom was a hard sell for Clay to get a puppy but I think she has become quite found of Mr. Duke. She has even taken it as her job to make sure he gets his warm milk every night before he goes to bed. Yes this is one spoiled pooch…

Photo 365 - Day 2

I though that I would introduce you all to the newest member of our family, Duke Wayne Strike. He is Clay’s first dog that he earned by using persistence with his mother. It took him more then 2 years of begging, but he got his dog.

Duke is a pure bread Bichon Frise born on Dec 1, 2005. If fact one of GG's best friends purchased one of his brothers, his name is Dexter. I am sure that Duke will be the topic of many more blogs as this project continues.
