Marley and Me

My mother in law read this book called "Marley and Me" that she loved and suggested that I read it. I finally bought the book and started reading it. The book is about a yellow labrador retriever and the family that raised him. I started reading and it and was laughing so hard. I swear they were writing the book about our dog, Sunny. For those of you that haven't met Sunny yet, she is an 85 lb bundle of energy. She is our crazy "horse" as we like to call her. I'm only half way through the book, but it was so nice reading that we are not the only ones who have a juvenile delinquent for a dog. For anyone who has a large puppy and a sense of humor, I highly suggest this book. I haven't read the whole thing yet, I hear the ending is very sad. But what I've read so far, which is over half, it is one of the best books I've read in a long time. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. Partly because the book is so funny, and partly because I can't help but picturing Sunny everytime I read it. I even have Chris reading it and he is hooked as well. We spend our spare time fighting over who gets to read it next. Then we laugh out loud together as we compare it to our Sunny. It really makes me appreciate her a little more.
