You Ain't Nothin But A Hound Dog

Well, a few weeks ago we had some beautiful 70 degree weather, only to wake to an ice storm the next day. But it seems as though Winter has left us, and Spring is carefully creeping in. I try not to complain, knowing that in the 99 degree heat and 99% humidity of August, these 40 degree days won't seem so bad. And after all, if you can't appreciate the four seasons - you have no business living in the Northeast Corridor!

So here are just a few shots of Ginger and Tugger having together time, frolicking in the snow, and snuggling:

Panting and getting sprayed with the hose gave way to this....


This photo captures the essence of their play - "Na na na na na na...you caaan't catch me"

Tugger's newest pastime is jumping at the snow that we kick in his face...which now that I've written it down seems horrifically mean...isn't it funny how things sound differently in your head and then you articulate them and somehow feel evil?

...But he really does love it!

Even Ginger enjoyed the snow for a few minutes before she started shivering!

But after a half hour or so, they declared a truce of exhaustion.

And we came inside and the humans had hot cocoa, and the puppies had bones and snuggles.

Then mom and dad came over for some cuddles of their own!

We're happy to be emerging from our hibernation - but we sure did have fun and are grateful for the snapshots and memories of Winter 2007!
We look forward to posting some more colorful photos as we begin to bloom.
