I don't think I ever posted about Gage. For twelve years now I have been trying to get Tevita to give in and let us get a puppy. One day we were driving and he said, "hey, I'm gonna get the kids a puppy for Christmas." I was so happy and excited for the kids. In my mind I was expecting a little baby puppy that we could snuggle and hold in our laps. Tevita sent me the picture of our new little "puppy" one day and I wasn't so excited. He looked too big to be a puppy. Then on Christmas morning we drove to the guy's house that we were getting him from. The guy opened the gate and out came this "puppy" that looked like he was half horse. I gave Tevita the "look" and told him that we were NOT taking this dog home. He was too big and there was no way our kids would love him. (They have been afraid of dogs since they were born.) Well, Tevita opened the back of the yukon and in came Gage. He filled the whole back by himself. When he jumps up to give Tevita a hug, he puts his "puppy paws" on Tevita's shoulders and stands taller than Tevita. The kids have loved having him around and enjoy taking him on walks. I will post some more pictures of Gage later but I was told that we don't have any pictures of our puppy on our blog so here we go!!

About Me
- Tevita and Jodi
- Tevita and I met 13 years ago in Provo Utah. What a cutie he was! In June we will have been married for 12 years. It is hard to believe that we have been married that long but yep, here we are coming up on 12. We have 5 beautiful children that keep us pretty busy. We also have 3 angel baby boys that we know we will be with after this life. We have so many different personalities in this house but there is one thing for sure...we love each other and are grateful for this family! What a great life!

You are so brave for taking on a puppy. I am sure your kids are a ton of help. I am dragging my feet as long as I can with that one. Shirlyn
