Home Sweet Home

We are home safe and sound in chilly New Orleans!  Ariyah was quite excited to greet us, but sad to see Rachelle leave.  Since we've come back, she's been pawing at me incessantly (aka tripping me as I try to walk anywhere) and bringing all her slobbery, over-chewed toys to display in my lap any time I sit down.  If those things don't seem to work well enough for her to get my attention, she will walk up to me, sit down with the most guilt-inducing look she can come up with, and place her giant paw up on my hand, or knee, and just stare at me.  Last night she kept sneaking over to the couch when she felt I was not paying her a just amount of attention, and would pop up real quick to lay a big, wet juicy one across Scott's face - much to his disgust.  Since his voice is so hoarse he couldn't really get his point across to Ariyah to stop, and she would just continue to try and excitedly break past his swinging hands to keep up the kissing until I could get a hold of her.  We're going to have to work on that.  Scott is still sleeping this morning and she has been walking up and down the house, whining every time she looks at the bed he's in.  Needless to say, this adjustment is effecting all of us here in the Mackey house.
I know some of you have asked, so we just wanted to let our friend's in the area know that we're up for visitors now.  When Scott's not sleeping (and even when he is during the day I guess) we've pretty much been camped out in the living room watching movies and catching up on our TV shows.  Right now we are VERY thankful for our Netflix account and the internet to keep Scott entertained.  Give us a head's up if you want to stop by & thanks for the continued prayers everyone!
