Brian and Amanda Lain

Today we took Shane on a looooonnnnngggg hike. At first, Shane was taking Brian for a walk, then, a mile and a half later, the heat and his black fur took a toll, and he had to stop in the shade everywhere thereafter. We’re going to have to do this more often if he is going to get into shape!

We are babysitting over the next two weeks–preparing us for parenthood! We are taking Shane (Amanda’s little brother Chris’ dog) with us to Montana when we go. So, in the meantime, he is visiting us. It’s so nice to have a greeting committee when we walk in the door!!

Look at that vicious dog (all bark, no bite)!

Well it took us awhile to find time to post these pictures, but better late than never, right? So, over Memorial Day weekend, we trekked to Colorado Springs, CO to see Amanda’s older sister Laura and her three kids (Brad, Natasha, and Luke) one more time before they moved to Virginia. We went to Seven Falls and the zoo.
Since then, Laura and her kids made it cross country, with the assistance of Amanda’s little sister, Kassy. It was quite an adventure, but everyone is home now. Click here for more pictures.
