If I had a dollar....

....for every time one of the girls has asked me "Can we get a dog?" over the past two years...I would be a rich woman!

Just over two years ago we left our beloved dog Kiki with our neighbors as we were headed to Japan.  She's not kennel trained and we knew she would NOT like the long, long flight.  We also didn't know what to do with her the first few months we were in Japan...with the rules they have about dogs and not knowing where we would be living for awhile.

We didn't expect to get Kiki back when we returned to the States...but our neighbors have developed allergies to her and when we got back, and they knew that we still missed her terribly...they offered her back to us.

Last week the girls and I drove to Sandusky, OH.  We stopped to see my sister on the way, and spent a day at Cedar Point Amusement park.  Then, they arrived at our hotel and such happy girls we were!  I'm not sure she recognized us at first, but it didn't take long.  We had dinner together and I really enjoyed catching up with our neighbor.  

We've come home and Kiki was so excited to see Andy!  She's fit right back into our family, and we're so glad to have her again.
