Someone new to love....

Since I last wrote in my old journal we welcomed a new member to our family. On August 31st, (Mikey's 6th birthday), we adopted a dog from a local shelter. She's a "sato" a street dog from Puerto Rico. She was rescued by this group Save A Sato - Puerto Rican Dog Rescue - Home and then flown to the US for adoption. She's come a long way looking for someone to love her. She is some sort of lab mix & truly just one of the sweetest creatures I've ever met. Our Bernese, Buddy & the kids love her. They have become best friends... She is the perfect fit for our family, meant to be.

Because Sammi named Buddy, we let Mikey name the newest dog. After thinking about names for an hour, he came up with Holly. Suites her perfectly I think.

So everyone, meet Holly. Now we have Buddy-Holly. Anyone feel like breaking out into a chorus of "That'll Be The Day" or "Peggy Sue"? : )
