My Gracie girl

I absolutely love this dog! She's 4 months old now, and she keeps us laughing a LOT! No accidents in the house in 4 days...and counting.

Tick, the fat old man that he is, can't quite figure out how to play with her. She tries very hard, though, and runs tighter and tighter circles around him until he finally tries to play with whatever she has at the time. Her current favorite is a squeaky frog.













And just so it's remotely fiber-related - the tubs and bag in the background are alpaca and wool roving. :-)

And Counting

22 DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT!

Gah. What a day! The juvenile delinquents were in fine form, as always...

I can't wait until June 10

Our newest addition

This is Gracie (yes, I know it's fuzzy - she wouldn't hold still for this picture!)



She's a 13 week old Airedale, and she came to live with us on Tuesday. She's very energetic (typical Airedale!) and *extremely* smart! I've owned a lot of dogs in my life, and I've never had one with this much intelligence. It's didn't take long to name her, though - she's extremely klutzy right now, so her name, naturally, is Gracie...because she has none whatsoever. :-)



Updates and knitting pictures coming soon!!
