If you have pets in the home, you need to think about them from all possible angles, and this includes what those around you might think of them or how others might be affected by them. One of the most important concerns here is whether or not your neighbors are disturbed by your pets. If you think it is possible that they are, then you might need to alter what you are doing in order to try and make sure that this disturbance is kept to a minimum. Of course, it can sometimes be hard to know whether this is the case until someone complains, so let’s take a look at some of the early signs that your neighbors might be starting to get frustrated at your pets’ behaviors. Pic Source Your Pet Keeps Escaping This is a common one with dogs and cats alike. If you find that your pet is routinely escaping into other people's yards, it might mean that your neighbors are going to get a little annoyed in the long run. It can be hard to know when to try and do something about it, but if you

Hey neighbors!! I was given the opportunity to preview the new movie "Like Arrows" produced by Alex and Stephen Kendricks, Dennis and Barbara Rainey ( Family Life ), and Bob Lepine.  You may remember the Kendricks brothers from movies like; Courageous, War Room, Fireproof, Facing the Giants and Flywheel.  Our family has personally followed the Kendricks brothers from way back with Flywheel. I stayed up late one night to preview this new film, Like Arrows with two of my daughters.  Just as with the previous movies the Kendricks have worked on we were impressed.  This one started out a little differently and spans a couples life over 50 years.  The movie begins a little slow, and because it leaps forward years several times instead of days, you may find yourself thinking, where is this going.  Hang in there, because it is well worth your time.  This movie deals with issues many parents experience with child raising and will encourage you to set goals and work towards

Pexels Owning a pet comes with responsibilities. A pet is not something to take for granted and left to him/herself. You likely know this if you have put thought into becoming a pet owner. Becoming a new pet owner does take a little time to adjust to however, so it can pay to keep a in mind some attitudes you will need to use to help your pet adjust to their new home. In the effort to simply make sure your pet has enough to eat and is introduced to the home, you might forget some of the more complex things you need to consider. We’d recommend that the following are the most pressing and habits to develop to ensure you are properly caring for your new pet. Over time, you will find that you become a much better and competent pet owner, and that the advice given here becomes second nature.

Travel is a hobby unlike any other. While it can teach you a lot of things about yourself and the world, it’s not built to imbue you with a new skill. Nor is it something you use to create physical objects that have their own value and independent existence. Unless you put the effort in, the “results” of the time you spend abroad can float off and be forgotten. That’s why it’s important we preserve those travel memories ourselves. Here are a few ways of doing just that. Photo by Kaboom Pics Take a Picture It’s one of the easiest and the most popular ways of making sure you remember exactly what happens abroad. Exciting events, gorgeous vistas, and even the little everyday scenes that strike you as poignant make for perfect travel pics. Take a look at some of the photos on this blog to get an idea of the kind of pictures you can take. If you really want to remember every detail of the image you capture, you may want to invest in something a little more sophisticated than a smart

Hey neighbors!! I just have to share this with you.  One of my daughters and I LOVE photography.  She does a lot of photography for Southern Gospel groups and the goes out with me doing nature photography.  Since spring is finally peeking it's head out, we decided to go to a couple of parks a few hours away and spend the day taking pictures.  The end of last year we discovered these two parks in Iowa, that both have special bird feeding areas set up, but the best part is, they have small buildings, blinds, where you can go in and sit and watch the birds.  One of them even has binoculars, a dry erase board to post sightings, and posters about the types of birds you are likely to see. The blinds at the first park we visited, F W Kent ,  have small windows with hinged covers, so you can open different ones for different views.  There are seats to sit in, so you can get comfortable and watch.  The windows are at different heights, so you can also stand and look out.  The

If you are ready to get out there and get a new pet for the family then you will find out quickly what an exciting experience this can be.  You will also learn how great it can be to really welcome a new fur ball to the family home.  The problem is that choosing the right dog can be a difficult process, and this is especially the case if you don’t know what you are looking for.  If you’re ready to get started, then you can find out everything you need to know below. Your Current Lifestyle When you choose your dog you need to think about the lifestyle that you have now.  Think about it, what adjustments need to be done?  What sacrifices are you willing to make?  All of this will really help you to know which type of dog is right for you.  If you have kids then you will need to make sure that you take into account any allergies.  If you do have a slight allergy to dog fur then it is a good idea for you to try and get a dog that is low-shedding or even dogs who have been specifically br

Cats are amazing pets that can bring joy to your entire family. They are appealing as a pet due to the minimum care they require. They basically groom themselves, and they can be left home alone for short periods of time as long as plenty of food and water is on hand, but you should still carefully consider the responsibility before inviting a feline into your home. Food and Water  - Feeding your feline may sound simple, but there are a few considerations. If your cat tends to over eat, you will need to closely monitor his food and be willing to offer several small meals each day. Other possibilities include a sensitive stomach which will require more expensive pet food. You also need to keep their food out of reach from other pets. Medical Care  - All pets need routine car from a profession veterinarian. Before you take in a new kitten you need to be committed to spending the time and money necessary to keep your feline healthy. You can take them to a typical veterinarian offi
