Puppies

For some reason, my blog had some issues and no emails were sent out to my followers when I published this post. So I’m going to re-publish and see what happens.

It’s been almost 3 months since we’ve been back from our trip to the UK but I just haven’t been able to get it together to sort through our photos and sit down and write something. At first my heart wasn’t in it because we lost our little Maisy the day before our trip and it was very tough coming home to an empty house and adjusting to life without her. We thought we would wait awhile before getting another dog but of course our resolve ended on September 19th when we adopted our newest family member, Maggie. On October 14 we brought home Marlo, a 2 year old rescue dog. The efforts of housebreaking, constant puppy supervision, and a very shy, skittish dog in the mix have left us with little time for other things. So before the travel pictures I’ll show you a few of the new kids:

Here is Maggie—she’s 6 months old now.

Marlo came from a puppy mill in Missouri. She is quite shy and a little scared of loud noises, strangers and quick movements, but she is adjusting surprisingly well to her new home.

We are pleased that the girls like each other. There are entertaining wrestling matches and races around the house every day.

I love this blurry photo of our little star runner. This was taken shortly after we got Maggie so she still has her puppyish looks.

Another baby picture from the same day.

A warm fall sweater is a must, don’t you think?

This is getting too long so I’ll create a series of another posts for the United Kingdom travelogue.
