The First Annual ALS Awareness Month Picnic

Such a long name and reason for a picnic. But very deserving. It was a beautiful day in Piedmont Park. A warm breezy day, a clear blue sky, good food, and great company. It doesn't get better than that.

Thank you to everyone, you made this 1st picnic fabulous!

Blessings & Light

Introducing our newest Family Member

Rico Matteo........

He is a 7 week old Cane Corso, an Italian pedigree. His lineage is of Champion Show Dogs and according to the breeder, is himself "of show quality".

He arrived yesterday after flying from Cleveland, laying over in Houston, flying to North Carolina due to a mix up then finally flying to Atlanta. Rodney retrieved him from the airport and brought our baby home.

In a few weeks he will have his ears clipped and then the grooming process will begin.

We already Love him....

A wonderful addition to family.

Rodney holding our new baby.......

Exploring new territory......

His father Nino is a prized Champion Show Dog in Ohio.....

Perhaps one day he will follow in those very footsteps.

Rodney and Jordan sit with Rico as he starts to figure out he finally arrived home.

Exhausted, Baby Rico rests for "just" a moment....
