New Puppy!

We laid poor, ol' Hoss to rest April 4th after he completely lost his eye sight and could not get around on his own. It was very sad to watch him walk into trees, stumble down stairs, and get lost. I'm sure he was probably so confused and scared. He lived a good 13 years though, and was a good dog.

Here we are a month later, and we decided Gus needed a playmate. We got "Charley girl" from a breeder here in Huntsville, and so far, she has been a great puppy! We have had her since Monday and she warmed up very quickly to her new home!

Picking her up from the breeder Monday, May 9th. She was a day shy of 7 weeks old.

Playing with Wyatt

Gus has been pretty good with Charley girl, only growling at her a couple times over food and a ball.

Mother's Day Weekend

Last weekend, the boys and I traveled to Rockwall for Mother's Day. Brad stayed back to work on fencing projects on the property.  We took the boys to this cool, new park Saturday morning, and it was a lot of fun!  Then Mom and I went for mani-Pedis while the boys stayed with Papa. It was so relaxing and a good way to spend some time alone with my Mom. Later that evening, we took flowers to my Grandma and Granny's grave sites. Dad made sure it was all lit up at night and it was so pretty to see.
