Lucy's Hidden Talent

Little did we know that when we adopted Lucy, we also adopted an interior designer. While we were out one day, Lucy decided to do some remodeling. First thing was the molding on the door. Guess she didn't like it, so... she took it off!

And she, apparently, didn't like our french doors, so she was starting in on those when we got home.

The best part of it all was how innocent she tried to look. She even tried to use Jack as a tool to convince us how nice she really was. Look how sweet she is looking and laying next to Jack:

You're not fooling anyone, dog.

Our Last Minute Getaway!

We had a fabulous time at Long Beach, WA with the Schmalle's this past weekend. It was sort of a last minute getaway and it really worked out great. The first couple of days were cold and windy, but Memorial Day was beautiful! We spent every minute we could on the beach that day. There are SO many pictures that I loaded them here. When you have a minute, go through them: I put captions on most of the pictures so it's like a picture book. :0)

Cool, Dude!

Jack loves his new sunglasses! He even tried to get Lucy to try them on, but her nose kept getting in the way.

Making Herself At Home

Ya, I had to update already with Lucy making herself at home.

Announcing The Newest Member of Our Family!

We adopted the SWEETEST 5 year old, female Weimaraner from the Humane Society today. She's been home for about an hour now and she laying at my feet, sleeping. She didn't want me to leave her sight so she followed me up and down our three flights of stairs for a while, then I realized that she may just want to sit and relax so I got her bullstick and sat on the first floor. She immediately went to chewing her stick at my feet. That lasted for about 10 minutes and now she is dozing. Her name is Missy, but we are debating whether or not to change it. She's had this name for her entire life and I'm sure I want to change it on her. We'll see. But if you guys have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

I am so very, very excited to have a pup in our house again. Roz's death was a huge blow to our family, but it is time to take care of the hole that only a dog can fill. I have great hopes that she will fit in just fine. :-)

Dinner at the Schmalle's

Rob and Jen moved to Seattle, but we've been able to go over for dinner a couple of times. This particular time Pete got it in his head to mess with the boys and ... well, you've just got to see Jennifer's post about Logan and Jack:
