Layla Is Here!!

We just picked up our wonderful new puppy today at around 4:00. It was an interesting ordeal at the airport, but she was so excited to see us. She immediately started to bite at our fingers, but only out of love. We are having a great time with her and can't wait till everyone can meet her.




She has finally calmed down and is sleeping in her new bed.

Disney 2005

Yay Disney! We had a wonderful time riding the rides and spending time with the family--Paul, Marilyn, Cameron, Jason, Matthew, "On-the-way Austin," Addie, Brian, and Lane--yes, that is a lot of people. Ben had a wonderful time buying his first legal beer (a half-yard, no less). Lindsay was really brave and went on Splash Mountain...yeah, you know, the one that eight-year-olds go on, but nevermind that, she had a blast! Overall, it was a great trip and we can't wait to go back.

Layla is coming home!

The most recent addition to our family, Layla Puggley Stark, will be arriving on November 18th. Layla is a Puggle, one of the newest AKC breeds, a pug and beagle mix. She was born on September 20th. She lives in Missouri right now, but she will be flying in to start the rest of her life with us very soon. We can't wait to bring her home!
