YOUR MOMENT OF ARCHER

Archer had his first night away over Thanksgiving at my brother-in-law's house (not away from us, we were there too). He ran around and swam in the pool and barked at the cat...and then I think we lost him. He became a pillow for my niece:

This trend continued when we got home on the sofa next to my desk:

He was so tired, he picked up his ball to play and then laid back down again... that's when I spotted where he'd left his ball.
