Oh Ripley *sigh*, you are just sooo cute in that picture. I really want to pick you up and smother you in kisses (but boys don't like that do they? ). And Bella you are definitely the most beautiful guard dog I have ever seen. I really like the picture of you on the back of the couch looking at the camera, what a pretty girl. It sounds like you have had a very busy day today. Enjoy your dinner, and I hope you and your family have a very wonderful New Year.
