This is our new puppy, Taja. Actually, she's 15 months so probably not a puppy anymore, but that's what we call her cause she's so cute. We were presented with an opportunity to bring her into our home when we found out that her previous owners were looking for a new home for her. The day we found out that Taja needed a new home, we decided to meet her that evening and were blessed with the opportunity to take her home that night. Taja's former owners are wonderful people and raised her well. We have had the idea of getting a dog in the back of our minds for quite a while, but hadn't seriously looked around for any. I guess we waited patiently for the right opportunity and then acted promptly when it was presented to us. We feel very blessed to have her in our family. As you might be able to tell by looking through this post, I got a little camera happy with Taja.

She didn't get in the water, but walked on the dock and went for a quick boat ride. She also met a couple of new dog friends when we were at the lake.

Cole has fun playing with his new friend

Cole and Jayden pause from a game of basketball
Chad and Tiff watch Janelle, Taja, and Claire depart for one of their walks
Jeni walks with Claire at the zoo. Claire was scared of all the animals and kept her hat down so she didn't have to look at any of them. We'll definitely have to work on that fear over the summer.
Cole took lots of great pictures of the animals at the zoo

Jeni, Kaydra, Cole, and Claire after they gave Jeni her mother's day present. Claire was sleeping on the couch during the presentation of the gift so they all huddled around her for a picture.
Claire, Cole, and Jeni eat McDonalds on the trampoline. We had our vents cleaned inside so decided to get some fast food and have a picnic on the tramp because there wasn't much room for cooking in the kitchen during the dinner hour. We're happy we had that done. We had lots of dust in our ducts.
Sunset off our back porch...looked pretty so thought I'd capture a photo of it
