Peonies and Frisbees…

Dante’s enjoying his new lifestyle!

He’s already figured out “get your Frisbee.”  If he’s outside, he’ll run back in and find it so we can play.  If we’re coming in for the evening, he’ll get it and bring it inside.

And take a look at Vickie’s peonies!



Family Fun Time!

Okay, so I’ve mentioned The FlyLady before… For over a week I’ve been sharing the Daily Flight Plan with Vickie and Athena. Vickie shared this after receiving Saturday’s Flight Plan.

Saturday at FlyLady is especially fun because it’s the day we have Family Fun Time! This a special time just for you and your loved ones to spend time renewing your relationships with each other.

Did just that!!  We went canoeing on a local lake with my niece, her husband, and the 11-year old grandnephew in prep for the June river trip.  Dante had his first boat ride and, as expected, took it all in stride …


Dante’s new ‘do

By Vickie…

First cut … a locket for Mom to keep … no going back now!!

Undercoat that was stripped out *after* the cut down …
I could have made a puppy out of what came off him!

I need to get more photos of him now that everything has settled in …
he really is cute!
