With thanks

We had 16 for dinner, so we set up the 10' table in the living room!

Em loves holding Addison!

Toby loved the football field Scott made him!

The Morton kids!

At home

Happy to snuggle with the kids...

Happy to distract Scott!

Happy to sleep in his crate at night!

Duncan

Today we made one of my childhood dreams come true, and a dream of the kids... we adopted a puppy!!

Meet Duncan (aka Dunkin Donuts), a 4 month old wire haired terrier.  We first met him on Tuesday when I saw a post on facebook by the woman fostering him.  

We went to see him.

He was so playful with the kids, relaxed and friendly.  We knew he had the perfect temperament if we were to get a dog - and the right size!

Then today, I got in line for Black Friday at the shelter, in the hopes that we could adopt him.  Someone at the front of the line got there at 7am to adopt Duncan, so they got to him first.  However they didn't realize puppies were full price!!

So, they gave him back and we jumped in!

And the kids are already running around more!

He's had a busy first day!!

Living the High Life

We have been crazy busy lately!  

Last weekend we went to a concert, I went away to a women's conference for a night and then we had two birthday parties for Emma!  

Then this weekend we did it again!

Thursday night we attended the opening of the posh apartment building that Scott cut his Superintendent teeth on.  This was his first job at the company, a tough project alone, he also ended up the only super on the project for the last few critical months!

His big boss was at the opening too, and Scott got the credit he deserved.

And then Friday night is was his company party!  We were bowling, playing pool and watching everyone else get very drunk at the free bar - highly amusing!  We got home about 12:30am!

I'm almost 40 and was exhausted after the parties - but I love it!

 

Baby Addison loves her Aunt Deb!!  

Little Princess

Emma loved her new Star Wars costumes on Saturday.  That wasn't a surprise since she's been asking for them forever!!

Rey from The Force Awakens

And Princess Leia of course!

Toby, Josiah and Sophia helped the theme along!

I can't believe she is 9 already.  Growing in wisdom, humor and heart, she truly makes the world a better place.
