Meet Corduroy

This is going to be one of my very favorite posts...I can tell already.  We adopted a puppy!!

The kids were at Vacation Bible School at Christ Church. Derek and I had 2 hours to do something fun before picking them up. We went out for a margarita and dinner at the Salty Iguana. Then we went for a walk around Corinth Square and found ourselves at The Land of Paws.  Well, it was love at first sight. We took him out to hold him. And then we couldn't put him down. So, we decided to surprise the kids with a new friend. It couldn't be a more perfect gift for a family on Father's Day weekend.

Greta named Mimsy, so this naming job was Jack's. He was leaning towards Floppsy, Casper, Trotter,  Steve, Dan, and then Casper again.

By morning, Jack named him Corduroy. He said it was after his pants, not the bear. He is a wonderful little Corduroy. Roy. He is the sweetest little puppy.

He was born March 30, 2014 and his mommy is a Calvalier King Charles Spaniel named Countess and his daddy is a Cocker Spaniel named Handsome Rusty. This makes Corduroy a Cockalier Colling.

He enjoys watching TV.

He has plans for Mimsy the cat....big big plans. She now wants outside more than ever! But seriously,  Corduroy is very exited to play with Mimsy and she is tolerant and not too upset, but just wants him to slow down a bit and mind the tail wagging.

The tail is my favorite!
