Learning responsibility!

This weekend, the boys are helping to care for the dog of our new neighbor (and my work colleague) this weekend while they are away overnight. The dog’s name is Bailey and she is a sweet and playful chocolate lab. She loves her food and enjoys playing with and chasing sticks. She has enjoyed the boys, but is looking forward for her own pack to get home this afternoon. 

Meanwhile, my friend Peggy gave Derek and I a pair of awesomely nerdy beer pint glasses for Christmas!!!!
