Meet Beckham



I'd like to introduce the newest member of the MacDonald family. July 14, 2006 (a day before our wedding) Beckham, a purebred Boston Terrier, was born. Right now he's tipping the scales at 1.5lbs.


He will be available to us the weekend of September 9 but we're unable to take him that soon because we leave for our honeymoon a week later. We ha
ve sent our deposit and the breeder has agreed to look after him until we return. We're now both in the 'CAN'T WAIT' mode as we're very anxious to get him home!

Apparently the Storkworkers Union are on strike, so instead of him being delivered, we'll have to drive just north of Walkerton to pick him up.

"Goiter" an excited Cisco exclaimed after hearing the news of his new cousins arrival. We're not sure what he meant by that, but he sounded overjoyed. I'm sure they'll spend many a nights playing XBOX 360, listening to Pearl Jam, and drinking rye until sunrise.

Looking ahead to what Beckham might look like when he matures - we have gotten a hold of a picture of the stud that fathered him. Here's "Robbie".

We like what we see! We will have more pictures of our little guy after the weekend (they're emailing us better shots).

Lori-ann....Yes it has been a wonderful year so far. It seems like our lives are more busy now that we are married for some reason! Not to mention adding a little puppy into the mix, I think it's going to be even busier. but he will bring us tons of happiness, so it will be worth it.
You guys will have to come over with Rio, so we can let them have a little play date! :)

Hi Dwayne

Congratulations on all the great things you've had in your life this year,marriage, puppy and soon the best will come with children.
I'm really not that comfortable with this blogger stuff, not much luck in the past with them, but I just had to say HI.
Brendan and I would love to see you again and meet your wife. If you guys ever get to London, let me know I'll give you directions. I'm sure you would love a drive to AYLMER. LOL
Take care and congratulations!!
