Adventures With Atticus

I am posting this mostly for my awesome, cool, favorite (any of those will do) brother to see. Atticus was Casey's dog who was then "adopted", if you will, by my mom and dad. Atticus was living in the city but we found that he had a lot more fun when he visited the country. There is just more room to roam, and that's what he needed. But I guess being in the country has it's consequences too...



It is still a mystery as to how this happened. He was fine when dad left to go out to the field, he was fine when mom went outside, then Scott (my other awesome brother) went out, he noticed that Atticus was bleeding. Luckily there were no broken bones, just 26 stitches. So after an overnight stay at the vet he seems to be good as new. The vet thought he might have gotten hit?? We don't know.



I wanted to post a picture of Braiden's toothlessness, and I finally got him to sit still long enough to get a picture. You can really see his bottom permanent tooth coming in.



Today I am thankful
1. That they were actually having something for school lunch that Braiden could eat so I didn't have to make a cold lunch.

2. That my sweet sister-in-law Tiffany cut Nate's hair, so I didn't have to.

geez! You'd think I was on vacation or something.

3. That I have a clean house, ahhh it feels so good!

Thanks for the post, poor puppy chow. The girls wanted to send him a "get well" card...

Elise,
Karla told me to come to your blog for ideas. It is awesome. I need some tips at Thanksgiving.
