New owner of Puti
Our first dog's name is Koko, a black poodle from Cebu Philippines. My first encounter with her was when I started to chat with her owner and instantly fell in love with her. I just had to have her for my own.I took me three days for the owner to bring her to my house in Cebu City. I was so excited so actually see her for the first time in person. When she finally arrived to the house she was everything that I thought she would be. I was so very happy to have her as my own. The next dog added to the family was Latte, a Shih Tzu terrier mix. We gave him that name because he looked like the drink latte. We decided to get him because Koko was getting lonely at home by herself. We found his original own by talking to Koko's vet in Tagbilaran City. When we went to the owners house, we left with him that same day. They were so happy to be together. They live together with Mama and Papa in Hanopol. The next dog we got was after Comely arrived here in the US. Her name was Puti, a white and peach french poodle. She was so cute as a puppy. Then she started to grow up and her attitude started to change. She would not listen to us and she would not stop barking for anything. So we decided to get Railey, another white and peach french poodle. To no avail she did not change her attitude. We thought maybe if she had babies she might change, but that did not even work. She had 4 healthy puppies that we gave up for adoption. we started to talk to our friends about someone taking Puti from us. We found the perfect home for her at our friends house in Ontario, CA. Now Railey is living here with us now. He is happy, but he is a little jealous of baby Angel. He is getting used to her now and I think he will protect her from strangers. I think they will be good together. We will keep you posted on the progress of both Baby Angel and Railey. Stay tuned for more exciting updates in the family...

Veteran's Day
Today is the last Veteran's Day that I will have while on active duty. Finally after almost 20 years of service to our great nation it is my time to retire. I hope that everybody is out and supporting our troops both home and abroad. May God bring them all home safe and may the families continue to be strong in their support of their loved one. Be strong my fellow service members and Veterans on this great day. May God shine down on all of us.
This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. ~ Elmer Davis
Trick or Treat 2010
On Halloween 2010 we traveled up the coast to Ontario, CA to spend it with our friends Riza, Garret, and baby Kaylani. This is the second time my wife has ever experienced Halloween as they do not celebrate Halloween in the Philippines. We went to Ontario Mills shopping mall and handed out candy while we were dressed in out costumes. My wife was a sexy Indian Princess, Baby Angel was a lady bug even though she slept most of the time, and I was Dionysus the ancient Greek God of the grape harvest, wine making, of ritual madness and ecstasy. It was a great time seeing all the kids being safe and collecting candy from all the stores in the mall.
Angel's Birth
One day late in July was a very special day for us. The arrival of the most precious thing in the whole world. It was baby Angel's birth. After 22 hours of labor she was finally here in the world. She weighed 6 pounds and 7 ounces, She was 20 inches long, had dark brown hair, dark gray eyes, and light colored skin.
