Locksley's Comin' to Town!

Stevie though she had struck gold when Christmas morning arrived and Santa had found her (even at a remote grandparents' cabin in Ivanhoe VA!) ...

However, that jolly-old man in red was shown up the minute that Grammy & Papa's gift arrived on the scene...

At first glimpse, it was just a poorly wrapped package...

But wait, did something move?

Could it be more classic?

A puppy on Christmas morning!


It took only mere seconds for her to realize what it was before she had the crate open and kisses to share with her new "little brother!"

Honestly, we never thought we would see the day that a dog would be running around our place - especially inside! We must be truly pathetic parents to have given in to a child's desire (and she's not even old enough to beg yet!) ... But it has been worth every one of Locksley's "accidents" to see all the fun and learning Stevie has shared with her new buddy this past month.
