I've Fallen In Love with Another...

...A new little puppy.  His name is Winston and he will be nine weeks old when we pick him up this coming Saturday, October 22.  We are thrilled to have him join our family.  Winston is a West Highland White Terrier also known as a Westie.

Before I met Mark, I created a vision board and on it was a photo of a West Highland White Terrier.  I've always thought they were super cute dogs.  I've wanted a dog for the better part of my life but never had one because when I was younger as a family we traveled extensively for long periods of time and it didn't make sense.  As I got older it was too overwhelming to think about raising a puppy on my own especially as I was on the road often for work.  Putting a Westie on my vision board was important as I knew bringing a dog into my life was a goal.

Shortly after Mark and I met, we were talking about dogs.  I learned that he had a Westie when he was growing up - her name was Dooby (because when she was little, she looked like a little rolled up joint).  When I learned about Dooby, I knew that we had a special connection.  It wasn't until we started to talk about a future with each other that I shared my vision board with him...we were meant to be together (you can roll your eyes, I know that I'm so sappy)!!

We are both so excited to bring this little guy into our life.  I know that he will be spoiled!  And, yes, I'm sure that I'll blog so much about him that you'll soon tire of hearing about him :)

xoxo,
