Week 5 (June 30-July 6)

What a great week! 4th of July, long weekend, beautiful weather and hanging out with friends I don't see often. Ahh... it really was a great week. 

Wednesday

I am so in love with this picture! I was able to capture most of Finn's little quirks with one shot. I was getting ready to leave for work and the dogs were just sitting in my living room behaving so nicely. (I think they were hoping I wouldn't notice them and let them stay in the house for the day.) I decided to reward their good behavior with a treat - which prompted Finn's ears to pop-up. His ears pop-up like a Gremlin! Poor Finn also suffers from a little under bite (again... captured in this photo). I don't think the under bite bothers him too much - after all, it does make him look pretty tough. To top of this lovely look, Finn decided to do some odd squinty thing that reminds me off a pirate! So there you have it... Finn - my tough pirate Gremlin. 

Thursday

The dogs are always so excited in the morning for me to get up and start the day. Why? Because as soon as I hop in the shower, they make themselves at home on my bed. Here we have Gidget burrowing down on my pillow surrounded by my duvet (that I just took the cover off of).

As I am taking the picture of Gidget I feel something on my arm. Yes, Finn is licking it... he doesn't like being ignored. This is what I see when I turn the camera.

I turn back to Gidge to get a better picture... but Finn has already gotten in on the action.

Friday

I tried again to get a picture of Gidget sleeping on my bed... you might notice that there is a furry little leg on the left. Finn REALLY doesn't like to be left out.

Saturday

This is what I look like after I try to give my dogs a quick bath outside. Finn is fast and slippery.

Sunday

So many pictures from today... but I am only going to post a few.

I felt privileged to get a picture of my friend Jenny's daughter, Libby, smiling before the Pet Parade... she had her game face on for all of the other ones I took (aka - very serious)

Peyton (Jenny's other sweet little girl) willing to let Mike share with her...

... not sure if she was willing to share with Julie.

I am stealing this picture from Jenny because I like it! Julie, myself, Hollie and Jenny.

Monday

A extra day off of work found me and the dogs hiking along the river. 

Getting out of the river can be tough when you are wet and tired.
