Introducing....Roxy!

This is Roxy! Our newest addition to our household. We got her right before New Years from the shelter here in Rawlins. She was four months old when we got her. She is a border collie mix, with puppy eyes that begged to join our crew.




As you can see Daniel took to her with no problem. (I promise he climbed in to the kennel himself). Actually both boys have done really well with her. Johnny has the responsibility to feed her in the mornings, let her in and out of the house and kennel and to play with her in the yard. All of these he has taken to with joy.

Tom loves her too. He has found a new motivation to get a little extra exercise. Border collies by nature need exercise or they will get bored and cause trouble. So Tom often takes her out on her walks or runs with her in the yard.

She is really well behaved in the house.

And she loves to play with her ball....and rope and chew toys. Here she is catching a call we bounced to her midair.

She is sooooo cute. Love the updates. Good luck with the violin lessons. I hope he enjoys it. Emma has also been asking for a violin but I know she is not ready and they are so expensive. She just sees the other kids in our ward that play and wants to copy them. Your boys are so cute. Two year olds are fun! I hope it gets a little bit easier once he starts talking. Love ya Jess. -Lauralee
