Ahhh...sweet....freedom?

We are officially a dogless family now. On Friday, the guy from Johnny's work came and picked up Molly. I know that she will be SO much happier there because she'll be given the attention a cute little dog like her needs and deserves. The guy told us that when we decided to let him have her (2 weeks ago), he immediately scheduled a mobile groomer (they actually come to your house! Why didn't I know about this before!?!?!?) every 3 weeks and had already scheduled play dates with neighbor dogs. Then, on Thursday, on his way home from work he stopped at Petsmart, then went to Petco and THEN went to ANOTHER Petsmart! And to top all of that off, he put an "It's a Girl!" sign in his front yard Friday morning! So...yeah...I think she may be a little spoiled now, which is great!

Friday, before he came over, we took some pictures of "Molly Gog" with J.J. one last time and a pic of her new owner. That evening, when we got back from dinner and walked in the house, J.J. kept asking where Molly Gog went and we had to keep saying, she went bye-bye...a little tough, but he's only done it a couple of times since then. I will say it's REALLY weird to walk into the kitchen and not be greeted by her, but after I swept and mopped last night, it's really nice to know I won't have my kitchen floor covered with grass tonight because a little dog kept bringing it in on her feet!

OH! And now that our sunroom is no longer the "doggie limbo room" (the room where doggies are held in between outside and inside while their muddied paws dry off), it is now officially Johnny's "man cave". He has moved a big comfy chair out there, a TV and the Playstation 2...next in will be an old couch, affectionately known as "Ghetto", from his step-brother's house (if Matthew agrees to let him have it, that is), a mini fridge and a rolling cart for the TV. He's very excited about his own personal room and officially broke it in last night with our friend Ryan.

Here are some pictures of Molly's last official night as a Hughes...followed by some pics of Johnny in the man cave w/ J.J. after church on Sunday:

I wish a new owner would come and get my dogs. Hmmm, not sure my hubby would go for that. Too bad.

I'm so glad to see that the "big comfy chair" :) has made it to a place with such a name...man cave!!! And that it will soon have a buddy named "Ghetto". Love it!
Thanks for sharing what freedom from a pet is like. If we get rid of Sir Spencer, I'm glad to know we can start naming our furniture and the rooms they live in!

The man cave looks like a comfy place to me! ;)

I do like your new layout! Very nice! ;)

I bet Clint would love his own space. But then again, so would I- LOL.
