OUR DOG CHARLIE

it's official!!

Well....it's true. Tomorrow at 10am, Robert and I are going to become dog owners! For the past few months, we have had a serious craving for a puppy and tomorrow that dream is coming true. We are not getting a puppy, but a 75 pound golden doodle named Charlie who is just over a year old. Long story short, my mom received an email a few weeks back from her cousin who knew of a family needing to find a home for Charlie. As soon as we opened the picture we were in love with him! He looks just so darn loving and cute, how could we not resist!? So, I got in contact with the owner the very next day and it was a done deal. We decided to wait 2 weeks to give them a little more time to say goodbye to Charlie and we set the date - November 22nd, 10am in Branson to meet our new four-legged friend and to for a new chapter in our life to begin!

We have been doing the normal things to prepare for our furry friend - trips to PetSmart and PetCo, checking out doggie daycares, and I even checked out Charlie's crate for myself! We have all the essentials - dog food, dog bowl, chew toys, and even an overnight bag for when we go see Robert in Little Rock. We are keeping our fingers crossed that Charlie likes to ride in the car:)

We will post pictures soon of our new friend...countdown has begun...less than 12 hours!
