After a Very Long Hiatus...We're Back!

It's been a good six months or so since I've last posted, and we've had a lot of changes take place during all that time away. We've moved roughly 1700 miles away from the place we've lived most of our lives, welcomed a very happy little baby boy into our world, and said goodbye to Champ, the youngest of of our trio of dogs. Champ is alive and well, no worries, but between [hopefully] short-term apartment living (with a limit of 2 dogs), iffy relations between Jake and Champ in the past, and a new baby, we started looking for a home for him shortly after the move, and found a family thrilled to have him, with plenty of room to play and run, and two children ready for a four-legged playmate. Though we hated to give him up, we feel he's in a better situation now, and that is what matters most.
Life is busy but good. Posts probably won't be quite as regular as they once were, but hopefully this will be the beginning of many more fairly regular posts to come. Stay tuned. :)
