Times -- They are A'Changin'

With two teenagers and assorted animals in the house, you might say things are always changing at our house!  But it seems to be especially so this year with the puppies.  Every day they discover something new to do, to chew, to interact with, to play with.  While I have often worried that I won't be able to keep up with my children, I feel even more so about the puppies!  I look at them and wish they were still tiny little bundles of fur while wishing at the same time that they were passed the chewing stage.  I wish they were still dependent on us for things while also wishing they actually knew what "leave it" means.  It's a fun time in our lives while it's a stressful time.  I don't know how else to describe it and I don't think I would trade it for anything.

The whole crew in a quiet moment! Love these dogs!!!

(Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Nathan Brahier.  He was killed in a small plane crash earlier this week.  His mom, Pat, is a family friend and her dog, Pip, is currently staying with us during this difficult time.  While Pip is always a welcome guest at our house, we are sad she is with us for this reason.)
