THE FAMILY. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck

New Addition to our Family
We are proud to introduce a new member of our family....."MADDIE Apples" . "Apples" is her middle name. The girls wanted her to have a middle name, but we call her "Maddie" mainly. She is a 3 month old Labrador Retriever mix. Her father is a Lab and her mother is a Lab/Rat Terrier mix. We all are loving her in our lives. I have had to get used to taking care of another "child" again :) We have started crate training her and that has made life a whole lot easier. We are enjoying the experience because all of us are experiencing owning a dog for the first time. I never had one growing up and Paul has a vague recollection of the one his family had when he was a toddler. She will end up being between 40-50lbs and look like a small lab. She is one of the main reasons why for the past month I have been disconnected from the world of blogging. I am sad to say that I was almost ready to post all about our Christmas break and I didn't finish. So the Christmas post will follow this one.

Awww little Maddie Apples is so cute! Our kids can't wait to meet her.
So fun to see these pictures - what a beautiful dog!!
Don't you just love dogs...they add so much to a family. I miss you guys. How's florida?
Hi Gladys!!
I found you through Lacy. Your kids are beautiful, and I'm so happy you are all doing so well. Please tell your family I said HI. Love you guys
Wow, how daring of you guys. Matt and I would love to have a dog, I am just not sure if I am ready for ALL that comes with a dog. In a few months do another post letting those who are on the fence about having a dog know if you are still pro dog. She is a beauty and the kids pictures on the right hand side are so precious. Say hi to your mom and dad for us.
You need to update your blog! Are you missin' the dog?
Congratulations Gladys!!! You family told us the exciting news last night.
