Oh the cute!

These are our puppies:

Morgen loves them very much.  They love running very much.  The two are not always compatible...

Here's another pic- one of my favorites:

Don't you want to take her home, and love her and pet her and call her George? 

I do. 

(Except I call her "Wings" instead of "George."  Oh, and she's already at my house.)

And, just because last night we had to turn on our furnace (gasp!), and it is therefore Officially Autumn, I made cookies today:

Gratitude List:
* Fall weather!!!
* Leaves are changing colors
* School is in session
* Puppies are growing, and are even more cute than last month.
* Cool weather, so I can bake without melting myself in the residual heat from the oven.
* homemade chocolate chip cookies
* fresh (from the grocery store) salsa
* a new knitting project that I am excited about! (and afraid I'll jinx it if I share, so I'll wait a bit)
* we are looking for a house to buy, and put in offers on 2 properties yesterday.  (crossing my fingers and praying for one of them to be accepted)
* My house is (mostly) clean and tidy.
* I have freshly washed laundry to smell.  (and to fold, but the smelling part is better)
* homemade chocolate chip cookies (because they're so awesome they need to be mentioned more than once)
* good music.
* good books.
* family and friends who love and support me and my family.
* We are blessed.
* God is good.
oh, and homemade chocolate chip cookies.   With cold milk
