Gone…but not forgotten

We lost two things this weekend.  Well, lost isn’t the right word.  We know where they are. 

Brandon returned home to his mom today.  Compared to two years ago, his visit was wonderful.  He has turned into an amazing young man. He was very polite, did what was asked, and was funnier than heck.  I can honestly say that I will miss him.  Soon we could be living an hour away from him though.  I know Kevin, Lauren and Austin will be stoked when that happens.  They miss him so much.

The other thing to go was our latest addition, Brutus.  He just didn’t work out.  We had tossed it around a 100 times if we should just keep trying with him.  But Friday night was the final straw and Kevin returned him to the dog pound on Saturday.  We were bummed but he was food aggressive with the girls and he was constantly peeing in the house.  And they were not accidents, they were full fledged incidents.  Unfortunately, with our house on the market now we can have him peeing in here all the time.  That is not what we want our house smelling like when we show it around.  He will do well in an only dog home that has a doggy door or a great covered, outdoor pen for him.
