A quick update

Yes, we looked at puppies today, and YES, we chose one! Since this little Australian Shepherd is just six weeks old, we will wait until December 2 to pick him up. Brian has already made himself a "count-down sheet" so he can cross off each day until we can go get the pup. Oh, and said pup will likely be named Jackson (since he is Jack's son). As soon as I have time I will tell you the whole story of how this dog came to be our chosen. For now, "an-ti-ci-pa-a-tion is making us wait."

That's it for now from . . .

What a sweet pic! Congrats on Jackson. That looks like a sheep herding dog to me!

P.s. - I got your gift of the sheep notepad in the mail yesterday! THANKS so much. What a nice surprise to find that tucked in behind all my bills.

Seems to have been some pre-planning in this venture - John used to raise Aussies and he really loves them - Congrats on your new little guy :-) T.
