I Told You He Was Pupular

This is sooooo cute!

We are going on vacation over the Thanksgiving holiday and my good friend, Cameron and her family have magnanimously volunteered to take care of Sunny for us. (This is no small thing, since the first year we had Sunny we didn’t take a vacation—I was too nervous about leaving him.)

Their whole family is gearing up for the big dog vacation. They recently had Sunny over for a trial run on a Sunday afternoon and in the space of about an hour and a half, they had taken him on two walks, escorted him around the neighborhood to introduce him to the other local dogs (so he would have some friends when he came back), cuddled with him on everyone’s bed and played countless games of fetch and chase the tennis ball. (Sunny was so exhausted; he came home and went straight to bed.)

Sarah, Cameron’s daughter, really loves dogs (and Sunny in particular) and so she is counting down the days until Dog arrives for his “Sullivan Vacation!” It’s like an Advent calendar, only when you get to the end, instead of Santa and a bunch of toys, you get—a little white, fluffy dog!

Thank you, Sarah! You have no idea what it means to us to know that Sunny will be so incredibly loved while we are away.

Let’s just hope he’s not so much trouble that you have to make another calendar—Countdown until Sunny’s family finally comes home and we can get rid of this Dog.
