On Sunday, 9/11/16, Lu and Austie drove an hour to a farm and brought back a new family member: a 3 month old male golden retriever, loosely named Ford. He doesn’t really know his name so various names are being tossed around: Kobain, Raphael, Raph, Raphy, Boaty McBoatface, Yoshi, Oscar, Hector, Leonidas, Puppy puppy puppy… We’ll have to pick one soon. Dada informed Grandma and her simple reaction was: “What!!!!” That’s the most exclamation points used by Grandma so far! He is very sweet, energetic, playful, cuddly and clumsy. He licked Army in the face but generally has stayed away from Army and Squirt. They are also happy to keep their distance but Army doesn’t seem to care too much. Squirt is more worried and cautiously curious. Ready or not, let the games begin.
