I miss Mayberry...

So...this summer we've been on an Andy Griffith kick. We went through all the seasons that they had at the library and any other episodes we could get a hold of!
It's been quite fun...however, many times we have caught ourselves doing or saying things that make us wonder if we've been watching a little too much of it! We find ourselves practicing the fine art of Judo as demonstrated by Barney Fife, talking like Gomer Pile....and my personal favorite-wondering what Barney would do if confrotned by an automatic paper towel dispenser.

As a result of this "obsession", we found ourselves naming our pets after our favorite characters.
Meet Gomer the goat and Otis the sheep. One night we caught Otis in the garden and had to lock him up...haha...just like the real Otis.

Meet Ellie, Thema Lou, Wanita, Opie, Andy, and Barney. Our dog had puppies at the begining of August so we got to name them all...but most of them were girls so we couldn't use all our favorite names (Floyd the barber is one of our favs...guess we'll have to save that name for the next pet to join the fam).
