Kolya

And because adoption will always be in my heart, we adopted Kolya, a rescue pup. He's a Bullboxer (Pitbull and Boxer) and he was in a shelter that would not adopt out Pitbulls or Pit mixes. His only hope was a rescue group, that was doing a meet and greet at the shelter on Saturday. If he wasn't adopted through the rescue, he would have been euthanized eventually. But Kolya and six other pups that day, were lucky, and families came for them. The others still wait and hope for a family before it's too late. I may be done adopting children, but I'm not done adopting. And so now, we have Kolya. He is funny and cute and lives to eat. :)

Because you can never......

visit Santa too many times, to remind him that you have been a good boy. :)



Visiting with Santa

We went to the annual DSST Christmas party this year and had a wonderful time. We met up with my dear friend Denise and her son Brandon, who is Jimmy's friend too. The highlight of the day (beside the chocolate fountain) was visiting with Santa. And this year, was very special, because Elijah eagerly walked up to him, said a few words, and then climbed onto his lap, for the very first time!


Liam checking out Santa's beard and then a few moments later, took his glasses off. 

Thumbs up! Caleb is on the good list!

Santa tried on Jimmy's hat. :)

He still believes. :)

Caleb and his good friend Nick!

Jimmy and Brandon. Best buddies.
