Sheep Walking

Just when you think you've seen it all you see some girls walking their sheep around the neighborhood on a leash. What is wrong with getting your kids a dog?

Welcome Kona Kale'a

I am surviving the first week with my new puppy. I have decided to name her Kona. So far she has been so much fun and is such a good girl.

Sadie is a little upset by her arrival and is no longer sleeping with me. I am hoping she will come back to her side of the bed once things settle down.

The Name Game

OK...so I know I am absolutely driving everyone batty with trying to name my puppy. But, here is the new short list. Are there any that you like?

Cricket
Olive (kind one, peace)
Nami (wave)
Kale'a (joy)
Kamea (sweet darling)
Lula (lady, princes)
Kona
Yula (little bear)

Here is a story that her current parents shared with me: "last night ... she was sneaking up behind her siblings and stealing their toys. When she would almost reach her victim she would let out a little bark or maybe a chirp like a cricket. Then when she was done wrestling she would curl up on her new toy and fall asleep."

She is sooo cute!!! I can't wait to get her.

My New Puppy

On Saturday I am picking up my new puppy. She is a goldendoodle which is a golden retriever poodle mix. She is sooo cute. I can't wait to bring her home. I am sure I will have a lot of good stories to share. I am still trying to pick a name. Everyone is voting on what I should call her. Right now the names that are rising to the top are Cricket, Lulu, and Bailey. What do you think?

All Moved In

This weekend my mom came and helped me start to unpack. My place is finally starting to look like a home. The only rooms I have left to unpack are the office (junk room) and my bathroom. Things are really coming along. I still have a lot of work to do (new deck, stain porch, landscaping, touch up some paint, kitchen lights, garage door opener, pave driveway), but it is all stuff that can be done over time.
