Happy Thanksgiving and Welcome Walter

Last weekend Drew, Cole and I enjoyed a four-day holiday weekend together. We had so much to be thankful for this year with Drew's homecoming at the top of our list. We missed being with our family and friends back home but were thankful to have good military friends to share our Thanksgiving dinner. I even attempted my family's famous dressing balls and gravy and did them to perfection! Everyone loves my Mom's balls! Something about that just doesn't sound right. :) Anyway, great day with Drew's close work friends.

The Wednesday before Thanksgiving we welcomed our newest family member, Walter! He is 1/2 Jack Russell 1/2 Border Terrier born on 10/7/12. He was only 3lbs 12oz when we took him to the vet. He should be about 15-20 pounds. Jake is still back home with my parents so we can't wait to be reunited! Drew and I are SO not used to little dogs. Everything from his dog bed to dog bowl is so tiny. It's rather convenient! Walter has been great. He sleeps all night, is quiet in his crate, has yet to go to the bathroom inside, and is great with Cole. Cole cannot get enough! We are happy to have him.

 

Walter will be a great runner when he gets a little bit bigger but he can't go that far yet. We let him run then put him in the bottom of the stroller while we run. He loves it.

 

I've said it before but I am so thankful to have these guys together again. Here they are checking out the ducks on the lake.

 The other night Drew put on a head lamp to grill. I then look out and see Cole had one on too.

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!
