Goodbye Diego ...

So we had Diego for a day and half ... he got terribly sick and the vet said he had parvo. This is a really bad dog sickness, it shocks their whole system. As young as he is this could have after effects later on in his life, etc. The vet recommended we return him and find another breeder. I cried, I was already attached ... Obed was not so emotional about the whole ordeal. The Vet recommended another breeder to us, one that was closer whom he had worked with and said he could guarantee the puppies health. We just had to wait till the puppies at the new breeder were at least 6weeks old - since the last puppy had tested positive for parvo, the breeder just wanted to make sure her pups had their immunization shots before we came to visit. We totally understand ...

Diego!

Picking a Puppy ... which one?

The breeder met us halfway and brought a couple of puppies that we had picked out from her website so we could meet them in person. It was a tough decision just choosing one - they were all so cute!

Goofing around at Starbucks!

We stayed the night a cool hotel - Starbucks was just downstairs ... great breakfast coffee. Yes, you can tell I'm more of the morning person here.

Disposing of the Tree

Obed threw the tree off the balcony then dragged it out to the dumpster ... less mess that way. =) Go OBED! Whoo hoo!

Christmas Luch at the church

For lunch on Christmas Day a couple of families (including us) volunteered to prep and serve the food for a Christmas church family luncheon. We had fun working together and it is a blessing to bless others.

Christmas Morning ...

Christmas morning we all gathered together at mum and dad's house. In the living room under the Christmas tree the gifts were piling high! Last year we didn't get to be together and that was a strange Christmas ... this year we had two in-laws added to the party. The presents from grandparents were opened Christmas Eve ... plenty of chocolates and cookies for everyone!
