Okay, this is the cool piece of driftwoodfrom the cabin that Dave found and wrapped up for us.We somehow managed to fit it into the alreadyfully loaded car and brought it home. It’s nowon the entertainment center,and you can see that it willwork nicely into any of myseasonal decoratingmotifs (Halloween is coming!)
This is in the empty car!

Calvin and Abby were so glad to get back to their own home, after being inthe kennel for a month. But alas, a few days after we got home Calvin developed a hematoma in his ear and had to have surgery to remove it. Thesepictures are right after he came home from the vet. He is not a happy camper with his lampshade collar. Notice the cute bandage wrap on his leg from the IV.

We’re all now back to normal – Abby had a play date with her good friendJada (who had a pretty big growth spurt while we were gone) and that eveningshe was tucked away in her bed ready for sleep. Next she has an afternoonplanned with her other good friend Buddy. Abby is so happy to be back home!
