It's Official...!

Last Wednesday, July 25th, Ro and I took our final PAT for me to be able to officially adopt Ro.  She did wonderfully and we signed all the paperwork afterwards at a celebration lunch!  Ro is settling in pretty well around here, Riley even accepts her as part of the family.  They even share the same water dish now! :)

Today we all went to the Denver Aquarium with Zane's mom.  Evidently there is a tiger there...so we had to get an escort through the middle area since Ro was with me.  I thought there was supposed to be just fish!  What is a tiger doing at the Aquarium?!  Anyhow, basically they just rushed me and Ro very quickly through that part and we waited for the rest of the family to get through before continuing on.  This was one of the more difficult outings I've had with Ro.  She was VERY curious and was trying to smell a lot, but after awhile it got easier when she realized that I wasn't going to let her off the hook and she needed to pay attention!  I did let her sneak in a few good smells on some of the fish.  In this photo you can't see but there is a weird looking fish right by her nose, it was very funny and cute!

Overall, we all had a great time...but it is very difficult to have the entire family look at the camera and smile for a photo...this was the best we had (even with a few attempts at different locations!).

Ro, Zane and I stopped at my work yesterday...we have a lot of things to get ready before next school year.  Ro had to give the room a good smell down as it's been all cleaned and things were moved all over.  I'm excited and nervous for this coming year, but glad that Ro is here to stay and that things are going well.
