Welcome to our page!! I have been talking to Andy about starting a blog, so I finally put words into action and today is the day. We have been resting most of the day after a long, but very very fun weekend. Andy and my parents came up for Thanksgiving with their 3 dogs. Crazy is not even a word to describe the weekend. After staying at Walmart for 7 hours...yes I said 7 HOURS, we can home victorious with 3 flat screen TVs, a printer, and tons of other fun stuff. Andy, Shannon- Andy's mom, and I decided we wanted to go shopping for Black Friday and boy did we. I think we all had a wonderful time and doubt we will ever be able to top this year again.
As most of you know, I am pretty much obsessed with dogs. Since moving to St. Louis, I have joined a rescue group named St. Louis Senior Dog Project. We specialize in senior dogs, but also rescue dogs of all ages. I love to get new pups and going to auctions a ton. I got an email last week about one of the girls going to Auction Saturday. Andy and I had not been fostering for a little while, we knew everyone was coming for Thanksgiving so we kinda wanted a break for that. When I got the email, I of course had to let them know I wanted one. I was soooo excited to see the list of dogs at the auction, and really wanted a Basset Hound puppy, I just LOVE their long floppy ears. I quickly learned though that a Basset Rescue would be there to get them. Long story short, we now have a GORGEOUS silver poodle baby. She is only 4 months old and as sweet as she can be, I have decided to name her Barbie. I have her wrapped up in a blanket laying on a pillow right now. She has lived in a cage her entire life and needs some TLC. She will be available for adoption soon! I have to get her scheduled for shots and her spay surgery. I dont think we will have her long.
Sorry this first post is long, Im just soooo excited to have my own blog!!!
