leo! leo! leo!

okay. . . i am not a dog person. . but i have fallin head over heals for our new baby.  if i would of read that last line from someone else - i would of thrown up a little in my mouth:)  puppies are not babies - okay they are not, but we all LOVE this new puppy.  aaron calls him a prince! he is snuggly, he has the sweetest temperament,  easily trained, and oh so stinkin cute. and, i cannot stop taking pictures of him he is so darling.

the boys slept on either side of his crate the first three nights so he would not be scared.

our family looks forward to leaving the day after christmas and making the trek to oregon to be with all the mcmurrays.  this year was filled with - a great trip to bend, emery really really sick, tons of cousin play and simply just good family time!
