Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

It's Raining, It's Pouring, our little dog is snoring.....

     It is raining!  Real, actual honest-to-God rain.  It has been many months since we have had a nice rain, or even any rain at all.

     Yesterday we did adopt the dog we fostered over the weekend.  She is a cute rambunctious 11 month old lab/golden mix.  She is still settling in but seems to really appreciate our house compared with the kennels.  She had severe kennel stress while there.
     We found out what her original name was when she was at Foothills Animal Shelter.  We decided we would keep that name for her.  The big reveal...........the newest member of our family is called Charleigh.  (I wonder how long it will take for her to answer to that?)

     I am so thankful for the rain, but now that means I must go walk in it with Charleigh.

(P.S.  we'll take some pictures at a later time)
(P.S.S.  I've really missed that wet dog smell.......said no one EVER!)

                              A fitting song for today..........
