Who let the dogs out? Seriously, where did this dog come from?!




I can't believe it, but Shane has done it again: He has talked me into yet another pet! This time, it is a huge (as in FAT) lab/retriever mix named Laney. Her owners were moving back to the States and couldn't take her with them, so Shane and his bleeding heart decided that we should take her in. The kids are delighted, especially Savannah, who has never really forgiven us for leaving our dog, Miel, back in the States. Even though I am no dog lover, I must admit that all things considered, I like Laney's personality. She is very mellow- almost too mellow. She is so overweight that she can't run around and she certainly can't jump up on people (thank heavens!). In fact, so far she pretty much just lays around and sleeps.

That is great! I have actually learned to love our dog. Have you told Grandma Patsy, Laney's coming too!!

Wow! You are a better woman than I! I would not be so nice about having a huge dog! I can't believe how grown up Brandon is looking. And his hair seems to get darker and darker all the time. It will be so fun to see you guys this summer!
