We're Growing Again!

Three weeks ago, we added Samson "Sam" Hall to the family. Curiousity may have killed the cat, but luckily it did not kill Sam. Sam apparently found some sort of toxin that was good eat'n. When he arrived at the vet, they were sure he would not make it and that, if he did make it, he would be severely brain damaged. Sam beat the odds and survived to tell the tail without any problems. Unfortunately, his owners could not cover his ongoing expenses, so he was turned over to the vet's orphanage. A neighbor told us about Sam, and the rest is history. Sam is a one year old Pug puppy, whose current focus is reminding us what it is like to have a puppy again. So far, Lucy is eagerly awaiting the day we will send him back.

St. Patrick's Day, we welcomed our nephew to the world. Gavin Michael Hood was born to Amy Hall and Grant Hood in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Pictures to - hopefully - be posted soon.

Also, we are expecting. September 7th, "Crawfish" Hall is expected to join the world. For those of you horrified by the name Crawfish, take heart, the moniker will only last until birth when we find out the baby's gender and give the baby one of the names we have decided not to share. So that's the scoop, we have a new Pug, we have a new nephew, we are having a baby, and we are not giving anyone the satisfaction of the baby's gender or name. I know, we are real party poopers. :)
