We got a little bit of snow last night in northern Virginia...about an inch or so, which would be considered a dusting in many places farther north. The snow that came last night is just how I like it: enough to coat the ground, but not so much that the roads are trashed for a week. Here are a couple photos of the apartment complex and Sophie in the snow.

In the beginning of October Lindsay and I welcomed a fun-loving new dog to our family. We visited the Fairfax County Animal Shelter and fell in love with Jindo mix whom we adopted and named Sophie. She's so photogenic that I'm taking this opportunity to revamp the photo gallery system on my website. She has quite the personality, which I'm sure you will see in the photos. Be sure to head over to the photo galleries and get to know our new dog Sophie (her Halloween costume is quite cute!).
