A new addition to our family...

It's time to announce that we have added a new addition to our family....
Meet Spanky!!!

Spanky is a four-year old Shitzu that we adopted from our friends from church. He is just perfect for our family and is fitting in quite well. E-Pie is really smitten by him and is willing to even pick up his poo when we take him out for walks. She seems to have an supply of hugs for him...almost reminding me of Elmira from Animanics...I'm going to love you, kiss you, and squeeze you...

Anywho, C-Bear, who is usually very scared of animals that come up to him has taken to Spanky very well.

Spanky has been house-broken and trained to do the important commands. He rarely barks and is probably the calmest dog I have ever met. He's the cat the my Hubby has always wanted ;)

Welcome to the family, Spanky!

Maine: Vacationland for the Davises

We have returned from our two weeks vacation away from home. I really think it's the longest we have been away from home with the kids. We drove up to Maine to visit Hubby's brother and his family. The kids did awesome on the drive. We must have brought the heat from Georgia up with us because it was unusually warm...or so we hear ;) Regardless, we had a wonderful time seeing the sights, eating yummy seafood, and just spending time with family. I think pictures serve a better was to describe the fun times we had together.
