Cambrie has been asking for a dog since she was at least 4 years old. Through the years we have used many excuses to not get one. This last year though I have to admit there were times I actually thought we should get her a dog, but Rob was still not on board. That was until one day in church while looking through the "Friend" magazine there was a dog picture and he leaned over and told me we should get a dog. I seriously thought he was joking but he was completely serious. So we decided that for her birthday in September we would give her a dog. This was in February the decision was made so it would give her time to help save money to purchase the dog and take care of it afterwards. She was babysitting and mowing lawns to earn money.
Well this week a neighbor called and told us of a friend that was needing to find a home for a mini schnauzer. We had them bring the dog over to see how he would reacted to our family. After 2 hours I think we knew he would become a part of our family, but we didn't tell the kids this quite yet. We were given the opportunity to keep the dog for a few days to see how he would do and to see if we definitely wanted to keep him. It was a great couple of days and when the owner called we asked if we could keep Sebastian. He is the best dog! So calm with the kids, kennel trained, potty trained and travels well. This is a good thing because he will be traveling with us to Oregon in the summer.
So meet the newest member of the Lake clan....Sebastian!

Hurray!!! I already love him! I have to comment first since Pete and I are the only dog lovers in this wierd family. He is so cute! He can stay with us while your here since we have a fenced yard if you need. Looks like he may be inseperable from Cambrie...so I guess she'll have to stay with me too :) Can't wait to see you guys!
love Kelli
Oh boy ... don't let Kaitlyn know! We are in the same boat! Maybe when she's 11? We'll see.
Glad to see you up-dated. :)
