Jas was such a happy girl this weekend. Steph and Gord were here, with their three dogs added to our four and, instead of watching me, boringly comatose on the couch, she had all the dog activity to enjoy. Her face says "this is the way it should always be!"
Feisty Ms Chloe kept Sanchez busy defending his toys.
She has non-stop puppy energy and would do bunny-runs around the yard, all the big dogs lumbering in pursuit. Indoors, she was rarely still, just so much to explore.
Jas registers her deep appreciation of the entertainment - I think she wants a
puppy companion. Hmmmmm..........
Good grief. That's typical.
Altogether, the weekend could not have been more wonderful. And yesterday, after such a long chilly spring, summer heat landed. Lori hung all the bamboo blinds and we are in the thick of the heat now. By five p.m. yesterday, Lori was already moaning, "toooooo hottttttttttttt!"
Life is very good.
Looks like a doggone good time ;D
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos! Next time you will combine the two...though I do think it is easier to capture furry kids than human ones! :D
seven dogs? wowzers. as you might say :)
ReplyDeletesounds like a very happy mother's day indeed! I'm so pleased for you, for the joy you welcomed in and experienced.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ella, sometimes the furry kids listen much better than the human ones!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good time was had by all. Lovely! :)
ReplyDeletelife is good... and between too cold and too hot is sometimes a fine line, especially this year so far, with the temps hiding way below the stated average, and then for a few days way above (not that I'm complaining, it's gorgeous, gorgeous... and lovely to see all your (and visiting) dogs - sounds like you had a good mom's day
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful and fun weekend ~
ReplyDeleteWelcome the heat...I love it ~
This post just makes me pure happy, Sherry!! I love your dog talk and I can so relate to the latter of the bunch, we have two that we also are keeping a close eye on. Nice to see you!
ReplyDeleteHow nice that Jas got to have a play date. And that you got to throw yourself down on the couch and enjoy the fun. Perfect Mother's Day activity if you ask me.
ReplyDeletebeautiful dog love and family. i be envious:)
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely jealous. At times I so wish that I was not urban. But country life does not suit the wonderful urban husband. I could so easily lay up with so many dogs and cats. These photos and this story is such a pleasure ... so real. Hey, I did my best with Word Press and stuck it out a good bit. I just deleted "Raven's Press ... without even saving or looking at it and re-opened my old Crow's Fete Blogger Blog (well I will as soon as I have revamped it). I am keeping Noh Where Haiku on WP. I really hated being sort of disconnected from everyone via blogger.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had your hands full!
ReplyDeleteLoved seeing all the canine kids! Yup, I am sure Jas would LOVE a little puppy energy on a permanent basis!! Ha.
ReplyDeletesmiles...chuckling a bit on the taking pics of the grand dogs and not the grand kids...they are some cute pups though...smiles...
ReplyDeleteHow could I have missed commenting on this? Oh, maybe I e-mailed you.
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, I've looked at the happy-dog pictures more than once and still laugh about no pictures of the grandkids. I took lots of scenery photos near my brother's house, but none of the children, so you're not the only one.
