{christmas: exciting for more than just humans!}

...

Our Christmas was simply relaxing, a day we most definitely needed.  Numerous times throughout the day I felt in complete awe that this is our last christmas as just 'us two' - the childless couple, who despite their zoo of animals, still can sleep in until ten and open gifts at our leisure after showering and phone calls are made.  I know we're truly three, if you think about it.  But this soul inside of me, well she's a part of me still; her and I, we make one.  And she's just the one we've been waiting for.  I hope your Christmas was as lovely as ours.  xoxo.

    Thanks for the comment on my blog April. It's always so nice hearing from you. :)
    We are cleaning like crazy around here. Would you like a johnny jump up? Bracken LOVED it, but he no longer uses it and we'd like to find a new home for it. We also have a stroller that was a gift from my mom, but we never used it. It's an inexpensive one, so it's not one of those all-terrain strollers, but I thought I would offer it to you if you guys need one.
    Let me know if you are interested.

    Lots of Love!
    Taryn

    Your dogs are so sweet. I grew up with Labrador retrievers in every color. I can't wait to have a dog someday (when I have a lot of land!).
