Nuts about Bolts!!

We got a new puppy!  (picture taken from Breeders web site)

 He's a Welsh Terrier & will grow up to be approximately the same size as Toules.
We were planning on waiting until late summer, but this guy was just meant to be (I've been following the breeder for a few years now)  Everything just fell into place for us.  And we couldn't say no.  I mean look at that face!

 Here is his 'area' in our dining room for the next few weeks (have to make sure the crazy cats don't harm him)
 So cute!!
 And he's been a peach too.  Not much whining at night, whew.  He only had one brother (small litter) & he was attached to his mom, so we weren't sure how he would be.  But we've been giving him a lot of lovin'!

 Plays hard & crashes hard!

He's been to the vets too.
 with Twix.  The cats aren't enjoying him as much as we are.  They disappeared for a good 24 hours the first day.
 But as you can see from Beans - they are getting curious....
This is a picture of a (well groomed) grown Welsh Terrier 

So happy to be a dog family with cats again!! (and not just a cat family)

Trip to Florida!

Cold in MA, so we headed to sunny FL to visit Chris' mom!
 They have a nice piece of heaven in the Tampa area & we always enjoy our trips there.   They take great care of us too!
 Tony has the car bug too, so we enjoyed some 'hot rodding' while we were visiting
 Crusin'
 to a car show!  So lucky to have sunshine & 80 degree weather for a few days
 We also took the time to rent some bikes (always training!)
 Liz & Tony live near an awesome bike path, so we didn't have to worry about vehicle traffic - just turtles :)
 Love love love
 And we of course took some time to visit the Gulf.  Have to get my water fix :)

Such an enjoyable trip - can't wait to go back again!
