How Does One Keep Her Daughter Busy While At Work???

With Baskin and Robbins ice cream and a jail of course!!!!!

Morgan and I were out today and I needed to go and do the kennel for work. I thought that she would probably be okay to go with me, and it just made more sense than taking her home since I was halfway to work. I knew that I had a pack and play at work, so all I needed was a little encouragement for her to stay happy while in there.

Guess what....vanilla ice cream does the trick. Well that and getting to see all the dogs. I wheeled the pack and play into the kennel, which she really loved. She watched me feed the dogs, do some laundry, and even give a dog a bath. She was so good.

Sailor Arrives!!!!

After much "counseling" on what type of dog would be a good fit for the Overby family, Ashley (and I...as the counselor) decided on a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. They are small dogs, but not tiny, around 15# full grown. They don't shed much and they like to play as much as they like to relax. This seemed like the perfect fit for them. Fortunately, I knew a good breeder in Coppell, where Ashley and I went to high school. I contacted Lila and she actually had a litter that was born in October and would be ready to go home now. So with a leap of faith, Ashley told me to go and pick her a puppy without her seeing it (since she lives in Tennessee). We chose a really cute black and tan with a little white on his nose and chest. He is super cute!

He was able to come home on Saturday and all three of them couldn't be more in love with another dog. I have a feeling Ashley is going to be spending a lot of time over the next few weeks telling Bailey and Reece to share "Sailor"

Good luck on having another "newborn"!!!!!

Ashley, Bailey, and Reece Come To Texas

Late Friday night Ashley made it to Texas. She came for a quick weekend trip to visit and pick up her new puppy "Sailor". Morgan and Jake enjoyed playing with Bailey and Reece. Jake idolized Reece. It was really cute to watch him look at Reece with such admiration!! Now if I can get Reece to only teach him all the good things he knows and none of the bad!

We enjoyed some Mexican food, visited with another friend from high school, Amr, and his wife and daughter, and got to play with the new puppy. I just wish the trip could have lasted longer.
