Ellie's visit

My niece, Ellie, is visiting for the week. My brother and sister-in-law are on vacation. She is so easy! And her and Darrell are in love... it's so cute. They get along really well.

Here is Ellie laying on Darrell's bed (she doesn't quite fit...). She's playing with Darrell's favorite pig.

She's so sleepy after a long day of playing. She isn't allowed on the couch at home, but when you stay at Aunt Becka's the rules don't apply!

Me and Ellie:

It's very different to have a big dog in our house. I don't know if you can tell by the pictures, but Ellie is huge! I know she's close to 100 pounds. I have been sleeping in the guest bedroom while she's here... because Mike, myself, Ellie, and Darrell can't fit in the same bed. Ellie has been falling asleep with me, and then Darrell sneaks in during the night. I'm starting to miss my husband! He's probably happy to stretch out and not have me watching tv until wee hours of the night. Oh, the things you do for dogs!
