His name is Dakota, he's 4 years old and although he is a pure-bread Labrador Retriever, he is HUGE. One good piece of news is his mother lives next door, so living at my house is pretty cool for him.
In addition to one great dog for a present, I had 2 of my favorite home-made dinners; Tuna Casserole and Pepper Steak. I also went for a great lunch with our good friends. Not bad for celebrating my 56th Birthday.
Found out today that I have one more AWESOME present to come. We will have a full family dinner next Thursday to celebrate. Daryl will be here from Hawaii and Sheryl will be home from college. That will be the best of all. Family dinner at Maggiano's. Yummmm.
