Look What We Got!

We got a new puppy! I know, I know, those of you who know us personally know that the LAST THING WE NEED IS A PUPPY; but how could anyone resist this sweet face...
(Daddy wasn't with us when we got her. He would have been the only one resisting.)

This is Harlee
(No relation to Harley... as in Harley Davidson)



"Mmmm... Is that PB & J I taste? I think I'm going to like it here."

Sammy loves his new puppy.

Shay is sharing his juice with Harlee.








It was another beautiful day, so I decided to vacuum the pool. The kids were all begging to go in even though the water is only 65 and is not quite *chemically correct.* I caved and let them go in, thinking they would get to cold and get out in a matter of minutes. Boy was I wrong. They played in there for well over two hours. They had a good time despite their blue lips afterward.











It's been three nights now that Shay has been in a big-boy bed. He wasn't too sure at first, but now he loves it. Here he is on his first night.

OH Carla! How precious Harlee is and how sweet is Shay sleeping in his Big Boy Bed! I hope he keeps it up! That is fantastic! The kids are adorable in the pool. It's still too cold here, but we are hoping it gets warmer soon!

I can't believe your kids are in the pool already--it was 42 degrees here yesterday!! I'm getting ready to pull out my winter coat. brrrr....


The puppy is ADORABLE. I'd love for Andrew to have a dog--maybe someday. *sigh*

The picture of your daughter (on the flier) is the CUTEST thing! I'm praying that God provides in BIG WAYS through your sale.

Love and prayers,
