My Surprise!!

Yesterday Christopher went to Laketown to "work" on the ranch with some of our friends. He came home late last night with a little surprise for me. When I saw this puppy I about died. We already have one dog and just gave on away. I keep telling Christopher that we are a one dog family. I thought that we BOTH agreed on that. I guess I was wrong. I can't be mad at Christopher because well, just look at her. She is adorable. She is a blue healer and Christopher has always wanted a blue healer. Christopher is such a sucker for animals. I had to beg him to not get chicks for Easter because our 1st year married he bought some for me and they were all killed by the raccoons or whatever creatures roam around here at night. A couple of years ago he brought the weirdest looking goat home for Chloe. The goat had NO ears. He just loves animals. We are still undecided on a name. Christopher likes Cinch and I like Rio. I guess we can't have Rio because we already have Roanie and that would be confusing. As for Roanie. She does not like the puppy. Probably because the pup tries to nurse off of Roanie. Don't worry Roanie I still love you the most. I was so excited for the girls to wake up this morning because I knew they would be so excited. I told Chloe that Dad had a surprise for them. I asked her what she thought it was and she said a ball. Well this is way better than a ball. Chloe has been pulling the pup around in this little wagon all day. The pup just lays there, she is so mellow.

Tessa can't get enough of her. She just cries and cries if she can not hold her. She has been carrying her around all day. The pup is still small enough that Tessa can carry her. She carries her like she does one of her dolls. The puppy does not care yet. We will see later about that.

Oh how surprises are different for our kids. Justin had been saving a "surprise" for Molly for a couple of months...a Tiana doll. But she loved it just as much as Chloe and Tessa loved Cinch.
