cory's quinceanera

Cory, our family dog since I was in junior high, turned fifteen this month, so we celebrated her "quinceañera" today at my parents' house. She sure got the royal treatment!

Born with a heart defect, Cory underwent surgery as a puppy at the A&M vet school. Cory "saw the light" as they say, but they were able to resuscitate her. The animal shelter folks told us she wouldn't live past six, but obviously she has been so well loved that she has made it far past six...
