Ok, Ok, Ok, I Couldn't Keep A Surprise

I know I am a little disappointed that I couldn't wait for the big reveal, but I did wait to tell them at the shelter. So this is how it went, for 1:40 I shopped at Pet smart with this floor clerk Kathy, she was great, like my personal shopper for the whole trip, anyways. With her help I got everything a dog may need, with a picky owner that is. So after that trip, I really wanted to tell the kids, not only that I was having to hide all the stuff. So it was 3:25 and I decided on a limb that if we went right now we could get there before the visiting hours were over at 4. So in the rain we rush over to Marysville, they keep asking were we are going and I keep telling them to see there Dad. So once we arrive, Kirsten reads the sign and says "are we getting a dog?" and I answer "no I told you we are never going to get a dog, I hate dog hair". So all sad and mopey we walk in to see all the dogs, I ask all them to stand together so I can document the trip. Then after that I say that is our dog you are standing in front of, and

they are in disbelief, they had to verify again with me that we ARE getting a dog,

and then they turn to show Jesse some love.

Jesse was so happy that someone was standing at her kennel petting her though the bars, it is so sad to see her in there knowing she really is ours now.

See even the paper says she is ADOPTED!!

Just a cute dog that needs a home.

Daniel wanted this buff guy, but he was adopted already also, and I wouldn't have picked him.

This was Kirsten's pick, Alaskin Husky.

And they liked Gunner too.

But Jesse is ours, only a few more days and she will be home.
