A dog named Moto

Back in November my sister-in-law called and said that if we wanted their dog, Moto, then he could be ours. My kids had loved playing with him before and we had discussed a dog many times before so we thought okay. We decided to surprise the kids and drive down to pick him up. 

He was a little restless in the drive up to Saint George and Coop didn't appreciate where he wanted to go!!!
Ellie loved Moto right from the beginning, we had always thought Moto would be Coops buddy, but he was Ellie's. She helped to feed him, take him outside, and rub his belly. He was such a good dog, but after a couple days we learned that Coop was allergic to his saliva, he would break out wherever he was licked and we had to sell him. 
Ellie was so sad and she still likes to look at his pictures and talk about him. I guess dogs just aren't going to be in the cards for this family. Here is another cute pic of El and Coop ready to head to Orem for Thanksgiving. Ellie made her little pilgrim hat at Preschool that day.
