Introducing Angie

This week my grandparents brought home Angie, a nine-week-old toy poodle. Here's proud Papa with his new girl.

Adorable!! (the puppy is cute too)

Not to be outdone in cuteness, Izzie takes a nap after her eventful day playing with Angie.


I would have shared photos of the two of them playing together, but they ran around so fast all of my attempts were just a blur. Next time I'll bring a flash.

The same view I see every day was made particularly interesting by snow-capped mountains in the distance and the reflection of the lowering sun on the houses in the valley. The photo doesn't adequately capture it, but I tried to come close.

How Fortunate!

The way I see it, if you happen to have your camera with you when you see something this silly, the photo must be taken.
