HELP ALEX BOYE' BUY A HOUSE FOR A REFUGEE FAMILY IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD (For 99 Cents)

I am reposting this since the date is getting closer...


How's it going?

In case you have not heard, I am donating 100% all the proceeds from my upcoming single CD release to buy a home for a refugee family in my neighborhood

I am trying to get the word out to as many people as possible to download my single (For just 99 cents) on the 21st July. I have been getting some press in the local area, but would love to get the message out worldwide.
Getting the word out to as many of my friends may just help this dream of me raising enough money to buy this house for them a reality. Can you help me spread the word?

Best wishes my friends and thanks for your time.

Peace & love...ALWAYS!!

Mangey Mutt

We took Jasper to the vet about two weeks ago for his routine shots along with Ruthie. We also got this weird spot on his shoulder checked out because he was losing his hair in that area. Turned out it was mange. That's right, I had no idea that "Mangey Mutt" actually had a meaning. How did I not know this you ask? I have no idea. I guess I've never owned a dumb dog before. (haha)

Another thing we found out: Jasper is sterile. His boys haven't dropped nor will they ever drop. We have to get them removed because they will likely turn into cancer if they stay up there. I guess we should have just assumed that he was defective because of his lack 'o tail... So much for a stud, eh? I guess its for the best. Since Jasper is 11lbs and Ruthie is only 9lbs. Remember, Jasper is 9 months old and Ruthie is coming up on 2 years old. Bummer. Looks like we will just have to breed her with something small and yippee... Chihuahua... Poodle... MinPin... *Insert evil grin here*

I don't know when we will breed her or what we will breed her to. All I know is that she is going to have cute puppies.

Bear Lake

We went to Bear Lake this weekend. It was a lot of fun.

Amir really loved it. He loved the sand mostly. He would dip his toes in the water and was semi-okay with it when Rich took him into the water with him. But he REALLY loved the sand.







Rich and Amir played in the sand almost the whole time. They made a big sandcastle.


When Rich went out into the water without Amir (and Amir noticed) he would throw sand at him. :)


Katherine and Matt drove up with us. It took us forever to get back home because we stopped so many times.

Independence Day (2009)

I think the 4th of July has to be one of my favorite holidays. When else could you light things on fire and watch them explode? This year we went to No. Salt Lake's fireworks. It was AWESOME! I didn't take any pictures of the actual fireworks but here are a few before it got dark. We were so close that there was ash falling down near us. They were some of the biggest fireworks I have ever seen. Probably because we were so close.

Thats right, it was COLD. We all curled up in blankets to keep warm. Amir was a little scared of the fireworks at first but by the end he was asking for more.




This is a video of Amir's reactions when we were doing our own fireworks.
