Canine sleepover

For the past week and a half, we have been playing host to Ginger's friend Scout while Scout's people are out of town. Scout is an old lady--she celebrated her 14th birthday with us!--so things were pretty tranquil. These dogs put the "sleep" in "sleepover":

Reunions and football

Fred marched in the DeLand Veterans Day parade this morning with some of his fellow Stetson ROTC alums:



Then at lunch, we met up with his sophomore-year roommate, Eric:



After lunch we headed over to the stadium for our first ever Stetson football game. I borrowed a spiffy green hat from my mom in honor of the occasion:



Hatters for the win!

Fred has gone to the dogs

Fred arrived in Florida this morning to attend Stetson homecoming and his 30th reunion. The dogs are enjoying his company:

Ginger's buddy Buddy

Ginger and Buddy had a tense few minutes when we first got to town, but they have become the best of chums now:

Yum!
