and the Winner is...

...the whole family, actually. After five dogless years, we decided to take on a new pet. Her name is Missy and she's 7 years old. Her old owners said she needed a home where she would get lots of attention. I think, after yesterday, Missy might be wanting a little less attention. She was exhausted by the time the kids went to bed. We had a photo contest yesterday and these are the winning entries.

So the "winner" is the dog or a photographer? In other words, you had several dogs to choose from or you had several photographs?

ok-- it is confusing, I guess. We got one dog, Missy. When we brought her home, everyone wanted to take her picture, so we had a contest. Not one to want to choose one child over the other, I chose each girl's favorite picture.

She has settled in nicely.

Yay on getting a dog -- I find myself warming up to the whole animal thing. Can't say I'm a dog lover, but having one helps me understand a little of the people I know who call them their "babies." They do add a new dimension to family life, don't they? I'm going to show the pics to the kids.
