Dear Girls,

A week from tomorrow, you finally get to come see our new home and city and country that Dad & I have put together for you. There are so many parks and other dogs (and people too, Ginger). We really think you'll like it. Also, the weather has been so great - highs around the low to mid 70's. It rains alot, so Daisy you'll just have to get used to getting your head wet. Many of the parks are off leash, so if you can demonstrate responsibility to us, we might let you have some extra freedom that you weren’t allowed in Texas.

Grandma Powell is going to come get you from Toothacres next week so that she can take you to your last vet appointment. Give her a big kiss for us. Make sure to tell the vet to sign all the paperwork in blue ink. We don't know why that is so important, but it's one of the rules and we want to make sure to follow them all. Then some really nice people are going to put you in your crates and into the airplane. The plane is air conditioned and pressurized, but Dad & I are very nervous so please drink lots of water to stay cool. We won't mind if you have to go potty in your crate just this once. I know your ears will feel funny as the plane takes off and lands, it's okay to howl a little -- just not so loud that the passengers get concerned.

You have a layover in Amsterdam before you can come to London. The nice people there will let you out of your crates and let you walk around some. Please, please, please, whatever you do, stay out of the Red Light District. You are both far too young to see the things that go on there.

Once you get to London, you have to clear immigration. Dad & I have been so meticulous with your paperwork, but be patient it might take awhile. Someone will meet you there and drive you out to us. Dad & I will be waiting.

We can't wait to see you again.

Love you lots,
Mom
