Hanging Out, Dreams & Puppy Love











It is great to have an extra day to the weekend. I actually get to join in on some of the fun. Yesterday at church, someone asked Evelyn what we were doing today. She answered, "Well, I think we will just hang out, stay at home." I had kind of thought we might hit the road and find a sale somewhere, however, things changed when there was a knock at the door around 9:30 this morning. Evelyn said, "Mom, our neighbor is at the door." Our neighbor came to see if we had lost any puppies, three to be exact. :) We had not but certainly wanted to take a peak at them. Events afterwards included us calling Scott on his cell asking to keep one but knowing the answer. Our neighbor has a 12 year old dog who did not care for the puppies being around. I agreed to babysit the puppies until a home could be found or they could be taken to the pound. I quickly tried to call Scott again to warn him that the puppies were here and that we knew it was temporary. He came driving up about that time and I had to do some quick explaining. We all enjoyed the day with the puppies, especially Evelyn. She absolutely loves animals. Shortly after the fun began, she asked if this was a dream or if it was real. :) It was a five year old's dream come true. Emelia had to warm up to them and see that they were harmless, but then she enjoyed them as well. The pups are as snug as a bug in a rug right now and will be picked up tomorrow. Aren't they precious? ;(

OH! They are soooo precious! I can tell Evelyn is taking such great care of them. I wish we could get one but the answer at my house was the same as it was at yours!

They are so cute! I hate that you guys can't keep them but I'm sure that Scott has a good reason.

Tiana is in the middle of potty training and is doing okay with it.
