Adventures With Lacy: Lacy's First Day Living in Alabama

September 22, 2007
This morning Zac and I woke up bright and early and loaded Lacy and her belongings in the truck. We were taking her to her new home in Alabama. She will be staying with me while Zac in Afghanistan. She has been here to visit, but has never stayed for more than a day or two. She has a friend here, Belgium. We call her Belle and the girls call her Butterscotch. Anyway, they were happy to be together again and Lacy setteled in nicely.
After I arrived back home from the airport, it was late and Lacy was already sleeping. She spent her first night outside. The next morning she was ready to play. I fed her, then headed to church. After church, she and I went for a ride in the Explorer. She was kind of stubborn about getting in and out, but she did great after the first time or two. Our first stop was the football field, we went walking around the track. Lacy wanted to stop and smell everything, so we didn't make too many laps. Since we were in the neighborhood, we decided to visit my brother and his family. He wasn't feeling well, but Courtney and Tracy were excited to see Lacy and excited to play. Courtney decided to try and walk Lacy, but decided it was too much trouble because Lacy was too hyper. So I walked her down the street a bit. Lacy awsn't too sure about the neighborhood dogs, so we went back to the Brown residence. Lacy had a great time playing and running in the yard. She loved fetching the ball and getting the animals' hairbrush. We decided to head home for the evening and play with Belle a little bit. After that it was time for bed. Lacy spent that night in the kennel. The next morning was Monday and I was off work. We went for our walk and played with Belle. The next few days were pretty much the same.
