I can't believe how far behind I am on updates once again!  I'm a happy to say that Ro and I are having a fabulous year at school so far! Much different from last year.  She is settling in nicely and not having tummy issues like the beginning of last school year.  (She does try to sneak crumbs left from student snack, but not nearly as much).  I have been very busy with work and many nights we aren't home until at least 6.  Ro developed a strange bump on her ear, but the vet checked it and said it isn't anything we should worry about and it might even disappear over the coarse of a few months.  (Apparently it is quite common for younger dogs...)  Overall her health was super good!  Her weight is perfect and she behaves really nicely.
Ro and I have been busy getting in shape for our 10k next Saturday at Jam at the Damz!  We are on the Adaptive Adventures team (the group that has been lending us a hand-cycles each week).  We set up a donation page to help with our registration fees, so if you'd like to help please check it out! http://www.grouprev.com/shannonandro?saved=1
We are now up to 7 miles without getting too tired, so we should be up for the 6 mile race hopefully running most of the way!  :)  Ro really likes getting out and running as do I!   
A few weeks ago we volunteered at the Ataxia Run, Walk, Roll.  Ro was doing such a good job I let her man the tent for a bit.

 And here is just a cute photo of her! :)
We are headed to the Bow Ties and Tails event for Canine Partners tonight, so I'm sure we'll take some more photos! 
I am very grateful for how flexible Ro can be.  Our lives a very full and crazy most days.  With work, three kids, and everything else we have going on it's nice to know she can handle it.  I thought for sure the beginning of the school year was going to be crazy.  A week before school started my grandmother passed away and we drove all the way to Salt Lake to attend the funeral and back over the coarse of only 2 days, and the next day had to start work.  I was so glad she was able to manage all of that (and me worrying!). I know there is so many more things I meant to post about, but at this moment I can't think of any of them!
