Woof!

We have a new furry family member now! Her name is Bailey (originally spelled Baylee) and she belongs to my Mom. She is a little 6 year old Welsh Terrier and she's cute as a button!

Little Bailey was surrendered to a rescue group in Tennessee. She's lived her whole life in a kennel on a cement slab. She has never been on grass or carpeting or a couch. She was mostly cared for but has never been loved. She's never walked on a leash and she's not housebroken.
Isn't that sad? Mom is going to change all that though. Little Bailey is going to eat more (she's a little thin), she's going to learn to romp in the backyard with Bud, and sit on carpeting and lay on the couch next to Mom. She will be loved for the first time in her life. That's a great thing. Plus, it gives Mom more to do! hehehehehe

Anyway...we left at 7:00am and didn't get home until 9:30pm! It was a loooooonnnnng day! It was an easy drive and it was pretty though so that helped. About 2 hours from home we ran into a little rain and got this nice surprise for encouragement;

It was a nice sight for sure. You don't get to see too many rainbows :-)

And put this in the 'did you know' category; Tennessee has armadillos! No really. I'm totally serious!! We passed at least a dozen dead ones along side the highway out in the country. When we got home, I Googled it. And sure enough, there were several articles about the armadillo invasion in Tennessee. It was SO weird! I'd never seen an armadillo outside a zoo. Granted they were dead, but still.

So that was my Mother's Day gift to Mom. I drove her. I love her <3>A LOT
