Over spring break I went to Waynesboro to check on my mom, who had surgery. She is doing really well. While I was there, dad and I took Flash out to Veritas because it was such a nice day out and the scenery was beautiful.
The beautiful grounds at Veritas.
Beautiful view!
I am so very behind with my blogging! One of these days I will get caught up. At the beginning of April, Wesley came up to visit us and we went to New York City to see the new musical called The Book of Mormon, written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. I was so bad at remembering to get pictures, and didn’t get a single one of the 3 of us. We LOVED the musical. I think our sides hurt for days after from laughing so hard. We had such a great time.
The theatre.
The Macy’s flower show. Macy’s was SO crowded and there were plants and flowers on EVERYTHING. We went in planning on shopping, and walked out of the closest door we could find. It was a mad house.
Flashy was so happy to see Jason when we got home.
Jason and I don’t really have anything exciting going on these days, so we pretty much just take pictures of Flash. We’re okay with being unexciting for once! Jason and I were so excited because another young couple with a Boxer moved into our neighborhood, right down the street. They have a 1 year old Boxer named Deeohji (They were stationed in Japan for a year, the name sounds Japanese but really it is just D.O.G., we thought that was a super fun name). Flash and Deeohji get along very well and they are good at making each other tired, which is good for us!
Flashy the cartoon pup. I love this picture!
Double Trouble!
They both love looking out the window and watching the world.
We finally got some warm weather. Well…..warm is relative. Warm enough to sit outside with a fire and have a picnic. Jason and I had such bad cabin fever, we really didn’t care, so we packed up the car, and Flash, and headed out to Loudon County for a picnic. It doesn’t look that nice outside, but compared to what we have had it wasn’t too bad, and yes…..that white stuff is snow, for those of you who might not know what that looks like.
Ready to roll!
Flash….so happy to be out in the sun.
The professional people watcher.
Horsing around. Apparently Flash isn’t the only dog who HATES his gentle leader!
Relaxing and loving the 60 degree weather and the fire.
So, our “little” monster currently spends most of his time getting into trouble. Really, he is still such a good dog, and he is actually very well behaved. However, mischief tends to be the usual around here these days. Our little man is not so little anymore…about 70lbs and still going strong. His latest project is attempting to break out of every cage/dog house we put him in. This latest project of his also broke his bottom canine tooth this week, when he conveniently busted the entire front out of his cage during the day. Jason and I never really know what we’re going to come home to. We have added extra metal clips (he broke those), zip ties (he ate those), and chairs (he climbed over those) to his cage apparatus. The good news is that once he gets out he’s actually well behaved and doesn’t really mess with much…usually we find him under a blanket on the couch. I suppose it could be much worse, we could come home to him eating the couch.
Busted cage…busted tooth!
Look Mom and Dad…..I escaped!!!!!!!
Sitting pretty.
More evidence of the great Houdini. Behind the car seats…..in the driver seat.
Lastly…..SUPER upset that there is a cat in our yard looking up at him!
I am so very behind in my blogging. I don’t really have a good excuse except for the fact that our life isn’t all that interesting right now….and we’re okay with that
Digging and nose plowing.
A confused little face!!!!
Watching the snow fall in his favorite place.
