Brody...Our Surfer


When people heard we were getting a lab back in January, we were given an onslaught of warnings.

"He'll destroy your kitchen table!"

"Get ready to replace at least $1000 in stuff"

"He'll eat you out of house and home."

and most memorably... "He'll be a counter surfer."

Jack is now pushing 90 pounds and is 30 inches at the shoulder. He is a horse! His nose easily peers over the dining room table and he could easily reach over the counter.

Now when Sean called me the other day to tell me a dog had pulled a chicken off the counter I would have assumed it was the counter surfer...finally surfing, but NO!

It was this guy...


Our Brodster...the 15 pound, no more than 10 inches at the shoulder Cairn terrier!

While the chicken was a lost cause...Brody was more than proud of himself...and we might add we were kind of proud of him too.

The Nation's Tri!







Today Sean completed his first Triathlon for the Nation's Tri! He did great! This had been a plan since last October so it was exciting to see him Patrick and Brandon finish! It was a super rainy day (are we surprised?) but it was fun to see them finish! Congratulations guys!!
