Life continues to be pretty awesome. I did go to the ballet class that I mentioned in my last post, and have been back several times since. I love dancing again! It's a fabulous workout and also mentally challenging. I love the teacher and I just come home so happy after each class--it's just such a release! And I'm actually one of the best students in the class. My flexibility has suffered over the years (can't hold my leg as high as I once could in an arabesque), but the technique is still relatively there. I also love the ballroom dancing that Chris and I did...we're on a slight break from that because it's expensive. Hope we can start again soon...

But perhaps the most exciting news is one week from today, we are brining home a puppy! Chris and I started checking out the local animal shelters last weekend to find our first dog. We ended up finding the perfect fit for us, a small, black retriever mix. I love the retriever breeds, but we couldn't handle a 50lb+ dog, so when we found a 20lb puppy that isn't going to get much bigger (we were hoping for under 35lbs!), we were ecstatic. And he has the perfect temperment, too. He's not super high energy, but is still very playful. He's almost 7 months old, and is nearly housebroken. Already crate trained, too! He just loves to cuddle, which is perfect for me and Chris. We haven't settled on a name yet, but I'll let you know when we do. Plus I'll post a million photos because I'm just that excited (and Chris has a new camera that he loves using).

I just can't wait!!!
