Meet Gilligan
Last night Tony came home after a farewell party for our friends, to wake me up in a very odd way. “I found a creature and he needs us to take care of him. Can we keep him?” Yes, its like having a little kid in the house. I, half asleep, was a little concerned. “Here,” Tony said, “stay there and I will bring him to you.” Before I could say a word he was bringing a box into the bedroom to show me his new friend. This got me up and out of bed quickly. He’s so lucky I’m an animal lover. I peered into the Busch Light box (nice, eh?) and saw a fairly large salamander! I was a bit surprised, but after some convincing I helped to set up a temporary home for the little guy. A rubber tote, some dirt and a water bowl. Back to bed.
Meet Gilligan:
Tony is on his way to the pet store today to find out if we can keep him, and how we would go about doing that. I think he really wants to be able to keep the little guy (just like a kid, huh? 🙂
A New Addition
Well, it has been a busy weekend around our house. Nope, no house projects, no scrap-booking, no treasure hunting. We got a puppy! Yes, we picked out a new little puppy Saturday night. It has been crazy at our house ever since. The dogs seem to get along, but are wild right now. So, I thought I would show you a picture of our cute little girl. She’s 9 weeks old, and she’s a Boxer/Rottweiler mix. I think she is going to be huge! We are considering naming her Wrigley, but let me know if you have any other ideas!



Does she look like a Wrigley? And, did you see all those wrinkles she has to grow into? And the size of those paws!?

P.S. We are still undecided on a name, but have narrowed it to Wrigley, Marley or Ridley, so let me know what you think!
