I feel like I have another kid. We adopted a spunky and extremely stubborn blue and white Pit-bull from the
pound a few weeks ago. It’s pretty insane that you can literally show up, sign a few papers, hand over a
couple of bucks, and bam. You have a new family member. She is the reason I haven’t been blogging, lol..that’s not a joke.
When I have a free sec, I am petting her, playing catch, running her around..she is non-stop energy.
So there is my excuse, and the only way my fingers could find the keyboard this morning is because my babe, Drew, has been home for a few days. Those of you with more than one kid…you, my friends, are super-people. You deserve a cape and a long nap.
One of the advantages of having Harley, is we get outside as a family WAY more than we did before. Harley needs it and we found out we did too 🙂 There are some gorgeous places to hike around our house, so we are taking advantage! Fam hikes at dusk make for great conversations…giggles..Reese chasing Drew with long, sharp sticks…picking wild blackberries….July has been good to us. These outdoor adventure remind me so much of growing up in Washington, where we had blackberries growing in out backyard, and the air was always fresh and you could smell the tree bark. I hope the same for you, my sweet readers. That this month has been full of something good.
