And Jon Bon Jovi's birthday.
And Karen Carpenter's birthday.
And my birthday. 34.
Meet Sully. He's our new baby. We adopted him over the weekend from the pound.
He's a Bernese Mountain Dog.
We kept with our Disney themed names. (We always name our pets after Disney characters.)
I kind of wanted to name him Carl. Because in the movie Up, Ellie passed on first and then Carl was left without her. And a dog named Carl is just funny.
It would've been my little nod to Ellie that we lost last week. But the kids outvoted me and we decided on Sully.
Because he'll be big and fluffy and hairy like the guy in Monster's, Inc. He'll get to be about 110 or 115 lbs.
He won't, however, have purple spots.
I kind of wish I had something profound to say.
A list of 34 great things to accomplish this year.
Wisdom I've learned in the past year. Something. Anything.
But instead I'm in a hurry. I'm meeting some friends for lunch. And I haven't showered yet.
I can't show up stinky on my birthday.
And spending time with people I care about it a good thing to focus on today.
Happy Day to you!!

(Karen Carpenter is a shirt-tail cousin of mine. =) I always loved listening to her voice.)
And welcome to Sully! May he have many loving years with you guys!
*woof*

Happy Birthday dear friend! We want to come to the farm to visit you guys and see the new addition to the family. He's adorable! Someday your kids will get to ride him!
happy birthday beki! sully is adorable and i love your blog!
Oh he's adorable! Did they tell you what they think he's mixed with? (having raised Bernie's before, he is clearly not a purebred) Hopefully he has all the Bernie traits. They are AWESOME dogs! Love love love them, just didn't like the hair! LOL
Happy Birthday to you!!! Hope it was fun.
Blessings, Lori
hope you weren't stinky for your birthday! happy birthday Sully is beautiful. I like the name Carl for a puppy too lol
Thank you ladies!!
Leah, we have no idea what he's mixed with. He was a stray that someone found and took to the pound. His tail is chopped short though. ??
Happy Birthday Beki!! The new baby is so, so cute!
Happy birthday, Beki! I hope your day has been a wonderful one. Love & {{hugs}} to you!
Happy birthday Beki. Hope you had a blessed day! I have a feeling that at least 30 of things you will need to accomplish will have to do with SULLY!!!!!!
I am loving my WORDS TO LIVE By necklace. You do great work.
Happy Birthday! What a beautiful pup! I love big dogs...and that you rescued him from the pound.
: )

Happy birthday! Praying you had a fabulous day. Puppy is too cute!
The most profound thing you can do on your birthday is to just be who you are and embrace yourself...that's even better than a list :)
But the puppy....yeay, puppy love!
Hope you had a wonderful birthday and I love Sully...he is adorable and I think it's fantastic you rescued him...I'm all about rescuing! I think Carl would have been a perfect name for him too...I love the movie UP...such a wonderful movie with great lines!
Happy belated birthday, Beki and congrats on the new pup. Sully is adorable!
Happy Day After Your Birthday! I love the pup, Sully will be a great dog - I can it in his sweet lil puppy eyes :}
Sully is too cute! And happy birthday!
~Molly P
OMG! I LOVE Sully! I love that it is your Birthday on Jon Bon Jovi's Birthday, I love that you celebrate for two days in a row, I love that you have that story to tell about your childhood. I LOVE it all!
Happy Happy Birthday!
♥Lori
Ohmygosh! Sully is adorable :)
Happy Birthday! So glad you found such an adorable puppy!
Ah! I am so behind on my blog reading! I totally missed your birthday!!! Happy belated day, my sweet friend!! Realizing that you are the just a month older than me is weird though. You seem much more mature. :)
Happy {Belated} Birthday! I had to comment on this post, 1. because your puppy is to DIE for cute. LOVE HIM. Love the disney themed names.
and 2. Carl is a perfect name for a dog. Growing up I had a Rottweiler (named Boris...also a funny name) - and I had a children's book starring a Rottie named Carl. It was called Good Dog, Carl (he was the family babysitter) - anyway, Good thing you went with Sully. Carl is a good dog name. For Rottweilers. :)
Enjoy your puppy. :)
