I am jealous, we live in sunny california but it has been low 50's during the day and down to freezing levels at night.

We are going to the beach next week with the pups staying at the house we rent but I definetely won't be going in the water.

Your co-workers daughter is cute and she seems old enough not to be a problem for the pups. Casey has been wierd around real small children but usually not when they are a bit older.
