Meeka

Meeka is a big girl; another Rottperd! She was twice as big as LiLu (her sister) when we got her and continues to surprise us with her growth. Now at 3 1/2 months, she's more than 30 pounds and can almost reach my chest on her hind legs. We got her for protection and I'm sure will be no dissapointment!!

LiLu

This is LiLu, a German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix (or as I like to call it, a German Rottperd). She was the runt of a litter of fourteen and just about the cutest black furball on the planet. Her breeder babied her a lot the first few weeks, so she is most content asleep in someone's lap. These are pictures of her at 8 weeks and today (3 1/2 months).

Foxy

This is our little Foxy. She is a Shiba Inu/Corgi mix we got from the Humane Society about a year ago. She's as well behaved as any animal could be and has proven to be a very good watchdog. Though the tips of her ears barely pass my kneecaps, she has convinced every stranger, even Dad Reed that nobody is allowed in the backyard without her permission!! Of course there's not a mean bone in her body, but trespassers don't need to know that.

Da Sanctuary

The Master Bath. This has become our favorite room in the house since it will need the least amount of work. The shower is twice as big as our apartments' so Ammon can actually move in it. Plus now we have a space-ship shower head, so it's doubly cool!!!

Da Family Bath

The family bath. The sink is green, the siding along the walls of the shower is cheap and cracking and the lenolium floor is stained a questionable yellow... But the toilet works great!!!!

Da ...Other Room

This is our sitting room or parlor or whatever. The picture on the left is taken from the hallway, facing the front door (which is behind that 'brick' wall). Our realtor, Ali Harper, is the funky-looking gal on the right The picture on the right is the mirror of the first picture.

Da Dog Room

This is our sun room and laundry area just behind the kitchen. It used to be the back porch, as you can see from the eaves on the right of the sun room. We call it the dog room since this is where they sleep at night.

Da Kitchen

We have since painted this room white, like we plan to do with every room in the house to give everything a fresh start. This is a huge space and when we redo the cabinets we plan to put a bar through the middle to add counter and cabinet space.

Da Media Room

This is the Media Room, complete with fireplace. The door on the left is the office. We believe this used to be a covered carport. It's on the Westernmost side of the house and there is only a tiny little a/c vent to cool everything in the picture. Needless to say, there will be no Summer Movie Nights at Da Teller House!!

Da House!!!

So this is our first house. We moved in Saturday, February 23rd: 1 year and 1 week after we got married! The pictures do not give credit to the amount of work this house will be (especially with the electrical and the a/c), but Ammon and I both feel that this is our home. Dad has already been a huge hero and we will be forever indebted to him and the whole family for all of their help!! The pictures above are from our final walkthough before we moved in.
