The Newest Member of the Roughton Family

This is Jack.  He is a 6 week old black lab puppy and the newest member of the Roughton Family.  Ever since Woody died, the girls have been begging for a new pet....They would take either a cat or dog, but Charles was absolutely against another cat but not so resolute about a puppy.  Ella has been praying God would change his heart and let her get one :)  Well, yesterday he finally gave the go ahead and I talked with a co-worker who had this one puppy left of the ones she was trying to find a home for.  We picked him up today after church.  He is precious.  He has big paws, soft fur, and puppy breath!  Missy is taking to him pretty well and I imagine after a few days they will be pals and Missy will be glad to have some dog company to play with.  This is a picture of him napping on the girls' bed.  Ain't he cute?
