First Week of School 2020 -- 2nd Grade

 Well, this year is unprecedented in light of the COVID pandemic, but Keller officially started in person on August 26, 2020, which is on week behind when we were supposed to.  Her class got a choice of in person or virtual.  We chose in person.  Her teacher is Ms. Hackleman, she loves her and has a lot of friends with her! (Maren, Norah, Brielle, Faith, Campbell, and Bo)

This year that was no meet the teacher in person, we met via ZOOM.  Ms Hackleman seems so kind, praying for a good year ahead!

LOVIE!

Madelyn got Lovie Belle for her 7th birthday!  

We had a short trial of a dog a couple of years ago with Snowflake and it did NOT work.  But, she so wanted a dog...so we went with a smaller, fluffier version.  I think this one will stick :)

For a COIVD 19 birthday it was a quiet stay at home birthday, but who could go wrong with a piñata!

What, no candy??  

But look at what we found!

Some pictures from the breeder...she was ready for us!

We chose this breed because Maddie has loved Boo for years, and now she has a real life Boo

Just picked up and headed to a Will and Maddie's birthday celebration!

Lots of cuddles.

Getting adjusted.

Our little family of 4.

Of of us now...

First haircut for Lovie!

Maddie's two Boos :)

First day of school. 

A picture today...she's now 5 pounds, up from 2 when we got her.  She should be close to full size.  

Despite what it looks like, when she is not napping, she has TONS of energy, she's just so fast you cannot catch her to snap a picture.  She loves to cuddle, loves to play, and loves attention!  

We may have a keeper....and if not, wonder if she could live at the farm with Snowflake? haha

We still remember our original dog...and she remembers us!

Oh and this dog LOVES the water!  haha.  bath time has grown on her...hair dry time has not. 

see Lovie?!  She's ALWAYS close by.

AND...she's and Early rise!  But, cannot beat this view!
