Keeping family and friends informed.

A new member of the family!



No I am not pregnant, althought that is what everyone assumes whenever I say, "I have some exciting news!" I finally gave in to Seth. We now have our very own puppy. I prepared myself to hate her when Seth asked if we could keep her for a few days... for a trial run. She won me over though. It was her floppy ears and soft fur. Plus, she doesn't bark, she is house trained, and she hasn't chewed anything in the three weeks we've had her. Amazingly, she was already named Sophie, a name Seth and I both love. We had contemplated naming our first daughter Sophie, but I figure us naming our first dog Sophie is close enough! It has been fun to run with her in the mornings and she loves having her belly rubbed.

Sophie has way more energy than either of us, but the past two weekends we have taken her to Myron and Sheila and Dave and Sue's houses. She has just gone crazy playing with their dogs and being able to run free without fear of cars. It is fun having her around the house, especially when one of us is home alone. Maybe I will become a dog person after all (much to my parents dismay!).

On another note, it is now week 3 of Goshen College tennis. We have had lots of practices and a doubles scrimmage last weekend. This Saturday is our first conference match. I am really excited about the team. We have a very strong junior transfer and new freshman, along with all of our top players returning from last season. I think we will have a great season! Busy Busy Busy, especially once matches really get going.
