Soccer Is Done


Sue's soccer experience so far has been mostly running around at the tail end of the pack of kids, looking kind of lost. But during the last couple of games this season, she really started to get the hang of it, getting into the fray, and even kicking the ball a couple of times. Hurray!

Kipper and Sue


Kipper is settling into the family quite nicely. We start doggie obedience training in two weeks, and Kipper gets fixed around then too. Although in general he has been very good for a puppy, it's been lots of work, and I'm really looking forward to when he's a bit older and more under control. That said, it's wonderful having a dog in the house again -- the eager puppy face at the door when you come in, the soft warm presence on the sofa in the evenings, the bouncy goofy pup playing in the woods.

Sue had a stomach virus this week. She spent most of her time on the sofa, with Kipper. They are getting to be good buddies.
