Please welcome our new furry family member

We officially welcomed Shadow into our family a few weekends ago and we need to make it official to the blogging world! So here she is!

We named her Shadow b/c she follows us or Gracie around everywhere! Shadow is very sweet and as we say, 'licky.' To describe her ever-growing personality, she is a bit of a drama queen, a little anxious, playful, and at times obstinant. Yes, you can see how she fits into our family PERFECTLY! :)

Gracie and Shadow get along well and enjoy running laps in the backyard together and playing inside together.

But Shadow is a bit mischevious and has so far had a knack for escaping and destroying. See evidence below.

Shadow decided to take out some energy on our laundry room and this is part of the result - what you can't see is she ate the ironing board cover during this episode. Please notice the wood chips from the door and door frame chewing that occurred during the episode.

The way our laundry room looked before she destroyed it.

Laundry room door in its entirety - several parts will have to be replaced.

One of several socks found in various parts of the house in a similar state.

This pot once had a little poblano pepper plant that she decided to dig out.

Poor poblano plant that we are trying to revive. We'll keep you updated on it.

Despite this, we do love her and are glad to have another member of our little family (most of the time)!

Have a terrific weekend b/c I know you all deserve it! :)
