wordless Wednesday

Any guesses on what these are?

a new member of the family!

On Sunday, we went up to Pennsylvania and got a basset hound! His name is Rafferty and he is four years old (we think). He just started playing catch with us today but instead of bringing the ball back to us he ran over to the slide and dropped it there :). He is learning how to sit and barks at tractors a lot. He is the fastest runner in the family so I made him a little trophy out of cardstock yesterday. Here is a picture of him laying in his bed on Sunday night:
