Welcome, Macey!

I am 35 years old--you would think I would know better.

Carson had a mid-morning soccer game on Saturday. After we left the game, we went to Brother's to grab some pizza and pasta for lunch. It was a great morning and we should have gone home to get a break before heading off to Laiken's afternoon game. Instead, we walked into the traveling adoption unit run by the SPCA which just happened to be parked in Market Street's parking lot next to Brother's. We were just going to look.....

As you can see, we did a little more than look. We adopted a 6 month old, pure bred Rat Terrier. The kids were ecstatic to say the least. They have wanted a dog for years, but Farrel and I have resisted, armed with really valid reasons: "we need a bigger yard....., you're not old enough to understand the responsibility....., Nolan is too little....." All of that went out the window when we saw our three kids with Macey. I really think we had the happiest kids in the world today and Macey seemed pretty happy herself!
