Today

IKE WAS HERE!!!!

Winter.....

Well, so much for seeing patches of grass in the yard. Winter has returned and we're supposed to get about 8 inches of snow. I'll probably get to do some snowshoeing with the dogs tomorrow. Haven't done much of that this winter. It's really pretty when you don't have to go out and drive anywhere. Let it snow!!!

Happy Birthday Tucker and Ike

Where did the year(s) go?

You and Me

Love this new song by Dave Matthews!! He sang it at the Grammy's and I saw it on one of my dog lists. More snow tomorrow, but not as bad as the mid Atlantic has seen. I'm grateful today for the sunshine :)

Three More Points

 

Denver took Winners Dog and Best of Winners yesterday at the Aussie show in Taunton (the other person holding my ribbons is the judge) for three more points towards his championship. He now has all his "major" wins and only needs two more points for his championship. Tucker needs three points. At the rate we're going that might be next year. Anyway, it sure feels good to win one once in a while.

Random Holiday Photos

We had a great holiday season this year. Lee had two weeks vacation between the shutdown and his few vacation days left. We started the season with a little snow and a family brunch hosted by Mike and Michelle. We then went to Maine for an extended stay and hung out with family and friends, took long walks with the dogs and just relaxed. The Maine kids came for an overnight. It was 5 degrees and the wind off the lake was howling... so 6 kids, 6 adults and 7 dogs were inside all day. We broke in Kevin's Wii Fit and had a great time taking turns playing games. Isn't that what the holidays are all about?
Enjoy the pictures....
