Roxie :)

      Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great Father's Day weekend! My life has been absolutely insane for the past few days. On Saturday night we got the cutest little 6-week-old Boxer puppy! She's a flashing reverse brindle, which is very rare in Boxers. We named her Roxie as the female version of Rocky, as in Rocky Balboa (also a "boxer"). We have two other dogs, Jack, a Jack Russell terrier who's 12, and Maggie, a three-year-old Boxer, who is named after Hilary Swank's character in Million Dollar Baby, which is why we stuck with the famous boxer theme in naming Roxie. Since they're both purebred Boxers, they get to be members of the American Kennel Club, so they get "special names." Maggie was named Sugar Lips Hot Legs Maggie May, which are all names of Rod Stewart songs, and Roxie's is Roxanne Be My Girl after songs by The Police.

      She's pretty adorable :)

Carpe Diem,

Brooke
