It's a Girl!

We are adopting a little girl! She is 6 years old, with big brown eyes and lots of jet black hair. I should also mention that she is a black lab, named Sadie. I found out about her through a fellow teacher at school, Diane, who serves as a foster home for SPCA animals. She mentioned a couple of days ago that she had a 6 year old lab that needed a home due to a divorce situation. She comes from a loving home, they just simply couldn't keep her. Diane brought her to the house today to hang out with us for a couple of hours to see how the kids did with her. Well, that's all it took because Stephen Richard is in love!!!! All of us were sad to see her leave at the end of her visit. We have all of the paperwork done and are now just waiting on the final word from the SPCA office as to when we can get her. The hope is that I can pick her up from Diane's on my way home from work on Friday. That way, we will have the entire weekend to settle in and really get to know each other. She is a wonderful dog and just made herself at home while she was here. She is calm, affectionate and loves a good game of fetch! We can't wait until Friday so that we can say "Welcome Home Sadie"!




On your mark...... Get set......



GO!!!!!


She LOVES the snow and playing fetch with her tennis ball. Unfortunately she doesn't always love giving the ball back so Stephen can throw it again.
