okay... i vowed NEVER to get a dog... and then i met annabella. i melted on the spot and fell deeply in love immediately!

dave and i discussed it on the way home and i called a friend to assist with making the decision (since i didn't want to do the wrong thing and my head was spinning cause i was so excited)... so when we came home we knew we were going to bring her home... well we sat the kids down and told them... our son was jumping up and down with GREAT excitement and our daughter (8) she burst into tears... immediately... and looked at me and said, "they are tears of joy mom, they are!"

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that confirmed it for me even more... i know the kids have wanted a dog soooooo bad but the look on their faces said it all for me.

we all got into the car and went to pick up our new pup!

so... here's our new little addition. she's a bernese mountain dog cross with malamute. 8 weeks old.

oh and her name... annabella jasmine tou tou





and her first ride in the wheelbarrow!
