we have sort of been celebrating valentine's all week long because on tuesday evening, we got an early valentine's present...a puppy! she's a six-month-old dachshund named eva (pronounced
ay-vuh, not
eve-uh). we've been thinking about getting a dog for a while. i've never had one, but i've always thought dachshunds were really cute. chris would love to have a great dane eventually, so this is a step in that direction.
eva was a little timid when we first brought her home but has been coming out of her shell as she gets more comfortable around us. she was already crate trained and we've gotten her pretty much potty trained...now we just have to work on her people skills! she has been barking at anybody that walks by. most of the time she's sweet, though, and we've been enjoying playing with her.
we celebrated valentine's last night because the restaurant we wanted to try,
devereaux's, was booked tonight. the food was delicious, and they had a live jazz combo playing. i wish there were more places in greenville to sit and listen to music like that. tonight we're going to watch
p.s. i love you and eat some cupcakes.

Yaaay for a puppy!! Last weekend during our many dog park adventures, we decided that Lola's personal favorite breed is definitely dachsunds (or other long-bodied, short-legged breeds)...so you get her stamp of approval! Having a dog is so much fun-- it has totally convinced us we are ready for kids! :) And we also celebrated Valentines last night...much better crowds the day before!
everyone please excuse our blurry camera. we're checking it out - hopefully we don't have to get a new one!
she's sweet, i can't wait to meet her!
Oh my gosh! I had not checkedyour blog!! Yeah for Eva and we cannot wait to meet her!!!
