Riley and Piper actually have become a bit of the Springfield Falcons' hocky team good luck charms down at the rink!! Brad takes them on most game days to the rink with him and they hang out up there with him,the coaching staff and the team. Brad says the guys love it and they help bring a relaxed energy to the place on game days. Considering that the Falcons have had an awesome season so far I think Piper and Riley definitely bring some good energy and luck to the team! Take care, Hannah

Finally got a picture of Tessa enjoying the snow in our side yard. As you can see she is really a bright star in this cold winter. And she loves, reallyloves running in the snow. She has been with us now for 6 months and doing well. Each day she is becoming more and more confident and learning the routine. For example all I have to say, "do you want your breakfast??dinner?" and she runs to the landing on the stairs she has claimed as her territory patiently sitting while we make the dogs meals. We are still trying to get a picture of her playing with the cats but near impossible as she heads in the other direction when the camera comes out. The flash really bothers her. In fact one night she was on our bed and Jack our orange tabby was next to her with his paw over her neck. Really sweet!! Hoping all is well - Diane and Steve
