Lounging in the grass

The weather here is beautiful today and makes up for all the rain over the weekend. I figured since I had some time this afternoon before heading into work, Lazy Dog & I might as well head outside and enjoy the day with some lounging...

Marching on by

Lazy dog...(tried to recreate a photo we took of Cooper on his first day home, but I couldn't get the right angle. Close enough!)

I am loving my nook (and foot warmer!). I got a nook for my birthday, I wasn't sure if I would like it; thought I would miss turning the pages, the feel of the books, etc. I finally got to play with one at our local B&N and really liked it, so I ponied up the cash for one. It holds way more books than I think I'll ever read, access to many, many free ebooks, & I can loan out my ebooks nad even borrow ebooks from my library! Needless to say, I'm glad I took the e-reader plunge. I love that I don't need bookmarks anymore and don't have to worry about losing my page. And the latest update added Sudoku puzzles and chess to it (did I mention I'm a huge Sudoku nerd!)

Someone's ready for a walk (actually, it's most likely a treat he's after, but we are heading out for a walk instead!)

Kamp Kacela

We spent the yesterday afternoon at Kacela Ridgebacks, or "Kamp Kacela," as we like to call it. We had some bonus time with Jaivyn, Cooper and Bailey's son (and LJ, Jaivyn's 2-legged dad)! He is gorgeous and you can see both Cooper and Bailey in him. He's about 5 months old - that time when I love Ridgeback puppies! Their legs and ears are growing faster than the rest of them and they are all gangly and oh so "graceful" :)

Here's Jaivyn - ain't he beautiful!!

Playtime with daddy

While Mama Bailey looks on...

Bailey, Lisha, & Kaos watching the view from the deck. You may wonder why 3 ridgebacks that love to run are guarding the yard from the safety of the deck while it's sunny out. 

Here's the answer:

Annika was "making it rain" and we all know how much ridgies love the rain! Then it did start to rain and Paul headed home on his motorcycle (and arrived home safe & sound, but dripping wet) while we enjoyed Winner's steaks (Inja is a coursing machine!)

Happy Monday, All!
