Merry Christmas!

Princess Jasmine

This is truly one of the best pictures I've ever been able to take of Jasmine. Usually she is very aware of the camera and turns her head away.

She has been such a camp dog! There was a boxer at another camp some distance away that came snooping in her territory. Well - she started chasing him and he ran as fast as he could back to his camp! It was hilarious.

Camp Dogs!

The Doggie Car Seat

We love to go!

Puppy Picnics and Catching Cutthroat on Yellowstone River

Happy Independence Day!

We spent a quiet 4th at home. I'm practicing knitting lace by knitting up this washcloth. The pattern is #3 in the knifty knit book

In the 2nd picture notice what was going on in the background whilst I was in a photo shoot?

Oh, have I ever mentioned how thankful I am to live in this country?

Foxtails (AKA June Grass)

Look at our poor little Abby standing right in the middle of the evil foxtails! If only we'd known when we took this picture. We had to take Jasmine to the vet to have some removed from her swollen, painful paw. We'll be more careful next time we go into a field full of weeds.

Ummm...a lazy Sunday morning

Our little Jasmine

It's not often I can catch Jasmine like this. Usually she turns from the camera.

Can we go?

Can we, can we? Huh? Huh?

A Poser

I can't often get Jasmine to pose for pictures, but Abby loves the attention.

Cuddliness

Puppy Baths

The girls have a love/hate relationship with bathtime.

Sweet Abby

Abby is a lover. She almost purrs when I whisper in her ear and pet her in long strokes from her head to her tail. She loves to be adored. She is a bit of a piglet and weighs all of about 10 pounds.  She is my baby.

Guard Dog

Thankfully she's keeping the ferocious, wild animals out of our yard ;-).

More Shih Tzu Cuteness

I could only get them to do this by making funny noises. It made me realize that I can easily make a fool of myself for babies and animals.

Yes, we are still beautiful!

I couldn't resist another picture of my favorite photo subjects, who, by the way, are not all that easy to photograph!

A Day of Grooming

"Beauty is so exhausting!"

Back to Work. Ugh. What a Monday...

This is where I spend most of my life - my cubicle. Yes I'm one of those.

It took almost two hours to drive 10 miles home from work tonight because of a crazy snow storm. I'm exhausted.
