Welcome Home Halle!

When we first received the Spina Bifida diagnosis my sweet friends, who know me oh so well, said that they were coming to get Halle. They KNEW that this dog, although I love her dearly, drives me insane! She snores LOUDLY all of the time on the couch. Her paws are loud on the wood, and it seems like she waits until the exact moment I fall asleep to get up and roam around the house. She leaves a trail of dog hair {and God knows what else!} everywhere she goes! I don't know what it was- but when I had Bryson something in me clicked. This dog was no longer my child and I couldn't take it anymore! {can I blame the hormones??}
So anyways, the Browns came and took her to their house for an indefinite amount of time. Greatest friends ever. We have lots of those. :)
Last week we decided it was time to get Halle back. I was actually ready for her to be home. Bryson missed her. We needed that sense of normalcy back in our daily routine. After all, she is part of this family too.
Bryson was thrilled to have his "Halle Girl" home again.
 She came back about 10 pounds lighter. We are now calling it "Brown Bootcamp." She immediately returned to her lookout perch/favorite sleep spot and it were as if she was never gone.
Happy to have her home!
{and thank you, Browns!}
