RUGGER

Well, we finally got a dog. I HATE dogs and never thought I would have another (Tuffy/Penny). Ok, I guess HATE is a strong word. The girls LOVE animals, and they caught me at a weak moment. We named him Skippy Jon Jones, after the cat - with muy grande ears, who thinks he's a chihuahua. That name didn't fit him well, so Jamie called him Rugger (Rugger Jose' Olson) one day, and it stuck. He LOVES the girls - especially Ava. He follows her around and even sleeps with her. I have to admit, he's a very good dog.

Dance Recital Dec.08

WOW - It's been almost a month since I last posted! Ava and Harper were in different dance classes this year. At their winter performance, Harper danced to three songs - including Yankee Doodle Santa, and Ava danced to two - including Santa Baby. They were the best (and cutest dancers) in their classes :) Grandma and Grandpa Rydberg, Grandma Irene, Grandma Bea, Grandma and Grandpa Olson, Ryan, Tracy, Cameron, Ali and Jordan came to the show!
