Marcie

On Saturday, we drove all the way across the state of Mississippi and nearly all the way across the top of Alabama to pick up our puppy.  

 We were in the foothills of the Appalachians.  As I heard Ben tell someone, we finally settled on a name for the puppy about 2 minutes before we arrived.  It was really probably 30 minutes. 

 Meet Marcie.  Nope not Maggie or Sally.  MV suggested Marcie as a compromise.  Marcie is also a Peanuts character.

 Marcie rode most of the way home in a dog carrier in the third row with Ben.  We got her out and held her a bit when we stopped for gas and bathroom.

 We've baby gated this area so that she has room to play without having access to the entire house until she is potty trained.  We take her outside of this area to play but put her here when we can't watch her.

 Nap time.

 She really loved this pile of dirty laundry.

MV and Janey sent her this puppy toy.
