City life

Living in the city is very different than the country ... there are so many things moving all at once–cars, stoplights, people, billboards, etc. There are so many options for everything. Doby loves having access to the backyard. He just runs around like a wild, crazy dog—he's hilarious to watch. Hurrican, one of the dogs who lives here doesn't like Doby too much, we still have to keep an eye on him as he will nip at Doby at any given chance. It will be nice once we get our own home and a backyard for Doby so we don't have to separate the dogs just to put Doby outside to play. We're planning to take Doby to the beach on Saturday. He goes crazy playing with rocks and dirt we think he'll love it. It's been a while since we went to the beach last also .. so long I don't think I have a bathing suit that fits anymore...lol ... that's not really funny. This morning Doby hopped up on our bed after Obed left to go jogging... he stretched out where Obed had been laying and laid his head on my shoulder... it was so cute! When Obed came home he took a picture of us sleeping. Anyhow, thought I'd just leave a little note for today ... I need to get better at this blogging thing.

The trees were starting to turn colors, the air was crisp on early morning walks and the geese were beginning to fly south ... all signs of Fall and the approaching Winter. Fall is definitely my favorite season of the year. I'm glad we were able to enjoy it for a couple of weeks before moving down to the eternal summers of south Texas. For those of you faithful fans who have been checking for updates since ... several months ago, I must say, you are indeed faithful. We had a big move - this week and are getting settled in. We haven't found a house yet, but we have a place to stay until we find one. Obed's father is doing much better. He has his sense of humor, has gained a little weight back, and is much more energetic. We thank God for sparing him and allowing us to spend time with him. I have many more photos of Doby's antics. He's such an adorable face... you can almost tell what he's thinking from his facial expressions. This is one of my favorites.
