New Edition to the family!









Michael and I briefly talked about the possibility of adding to our family.  I wasn't emotionally ready for a new dog, but Winnie was extremely lonely.  We went out to the Animal House Shelter in Huntley (Where we got Winnie 6 years ago) to look at "Rose".  She was the only dog that we considered.  Michael and Lily headed out to see how she was with kids and to see if she was a dog we would want to take home with us.  Olivia and I met him there along with Winnie.  Winnie and Rose seemed to get along just fine.  Michael and I were discussing if we were doing the right thing, we didn't put much thought into it, was it too impulsive, etc.  We look down to see Rose lean over and lick Winnie's face.  That was it, I was sold.  We've changed her name to London.  London is a Boxer Mix, around 2 years old (we think she's younger than that),  shes a very sweet dog and we will have our work cut out for us.  London seems to be adjusting well to her new home, we shall see.  Winnie now has a little spunk in her step and seems to like her new sister.  There have been many  adjustments this year for Winnie, but she sees to be taking it in stride.
