First Foster completed! Onto the next.....

As you saw in an earlier post, Joel & I have started fostering rescued min pin's.........

Ms. Denver was our first, she arrived on Thursday, September 8th and on Sunday, October 2nd, she went home to her forever family.....Kevin & Nicole. We couldn't have hand picked a better home for her....Oh, that is right, we did hand pick them!! lol After a terrible first 5 years of her life in a puppy mill, she is now going to have the life of being a princess, that she deserves.......she is even getting a Papa, which 10 bucks says she attaches to him & his armchair.

This Friday our next little angels arrive........yes I said angel"s". Our first little one is Xandro, who is 5 years old and has been in foster care since being rescued from an overcrowded private rescue in Texas. This little sweet thing won't be around long .........Ruthanne, get that baby bed ready! LOL

Our next little baby appears to be Jackie's long lost sister, Spice. Spice is a 2 yr old fawn female, spayed, docked tail and uncropped ears. 11", 8 lb.
Spice is just what her name suggests..... a sweet mix with a little zest to keep you on your toes. Spice is a friendly, well mannered, crate trained, house trained little girl that just needs a little work on leash training to finish her perfect little self off.

Last weekend Kevin and Nicole come for a visit with out children. Friday night we took a trip to Eau Claire to bring Joel's brand new computer to Best Buy for repair. The Geek Squad kept it, but they were pretty sure the hard drive was shot......after 34 days! They don't make stuff like they used to! Then it was off to Olive Garden for a nice dinner for four. Don't get the opportunity to do that often, it was very nice. After we headed for home and a early turn in.

Saturday morning everyone choose to sleep in until 9:00 am. We quickly had breakfast, showers and out the door we went to go to the Cranberry Festival in Stone Lake, WI. It was a beautiful fall afternoon to walk around, people watch and have some beers. We were back home by 6:00 pm and had a Shrimp Boil for dinner.....delicious!

Sunday, after breakfast we were trying to get Denver's adoption papers in order, so that Kevin & Nicole could leave out by 12:00 pm to get home and get Denver acclimated to her new family and home. Once we sent the new family on there way, Joel & I headed over to Gilligan's for the Packer game. During the game, Michelle & Scott joined us for some hoot & hollering and once again...... another successful game and Sunday afternoon with our friends.

The Halloween scavenger hunt this year will be Saturday, October 29th. We are needing to know how is all coming up, so please let us know. If you have never attended this function.........you might want to consider, it is always a BLAST!

Check Back Often.......Check Back Soon

Joel, Amy and Jonathan
