Day 60: Moving to Texas

We closed on our new house today!  Pumpkin is very excited about it, and we're all looking forward to finally settling down again.  Sadly, we'll be doing so without our constant companion Sunshine.  He was involved in a very unfortunate incident at mom's house and died while we were in Houston for our closing appointment.

Pumpkin handled the news surprisingly well...leading me to believe that he really didn't get it.  I fully expect him to bring it up again at many random moments to come.  We'll likely look for another dog sometime after we've fully settled into our new house, but Sunshine was one-of-a-kind and will be sorely missed by the kids and by us.  :(
