introducing Dottie

So, the car we had when we first got married was an old brown Datsun 210. Rebecca bought it for $300, and it got us through the first bit of our marriage (snow in that car was pretty nuts; I-15 to Jen & Mar's in Canada was crazy I heard). We affectionately named her "Dottie" and we still kick ourselves for not following through with our idea to take her engine out and make a dune buggy or something.

3 weeks or so ago, Rebecca was doing a Kodaly certification class and lo and behold, there was Holly, friend from Ricks! We got in touch with Charles and Julee Hamilton to have a mini-reunion.

The Hamiltons had just had a litter of puppies. Chi-weenies (sp?). Rebecca fell in love with one in particular, a female with a little black spot on her right haunch.

Thus the name Dottie.

Now we have a dog.

Here's a cute pic of her with James napping:
