Minocqua 2012

We have returned from the northwoods after another very successful outing!  However, I do have to interrupt this update with the following update to our family roster!

 

Meet Pippi!  (originated from Pipsqueak if you were wondering).  Last Saturday, Darlene had found the puppy at the farmers market in Neillsville.  One of our concerns about adding a furry member to the family was that Bo, the more allergic of the two, would react to the dander and we'd have to turn the little cutie away.

Well, with Hailey and I out camping, there was a week to find out if Bo could handle it and he did!  So we had kept it a secret with Hailey during the week.  So it was fun for me to ask Hailey if she'd ever WANT a dog (she said she'd rather have a horse), or if she had a black and white dog, what would she name it (Sarah since she JUST got a black and white stuffed animal and named it)...

The time came and the plot thickens.  During our time away, Momma and Bo were going to write a book about everything they did.  The first page of the book was about the fact they went and bought a puppy.  Hailey read it and processed it.  Then she thought, we bought a puppy...  Then her eyes lightened up and asked, did you buy a puppy?  Which we responded with YES!  She's in the house, would you like to go meet her????  Here is the look she had!

(Insert a big inhale with this smile)  :)

Hailey officially loves Pippi too.  She was laying in bed proclaiming with a sigh, "I love Pippi!"  :)  Tomorrow will commence the camping photos from Hailey and Daddy's week in Minocqua!!
