Spring Fever!

Ah ha!
I have finally found the inspiration to create my very first blog post. Spring has officially become my favorite season... although summer is a very, VERY close second. I absolutely love it when the snow melts away, the sun starts to shine, the flowers begin to bloom and the next few months promise to be warm warm warm and fun fun fun! Not to mention the anxiety that comes with horrible winter driving weather disappears.
These photos were taken on Saturday, May 2nd in my mom's back yard. I was on my afternoon break from Mama Mia's, the sun was out and I couldn't help but notice how pretty it looked down in the creek, all sparkly and coming to life! Just beautiful to me... so I brought the dogs outside with me to snap some pix.



The elusive, wild Shih Tzu... scary!!
My mom thinks he looks like some sort of mountain goat in this picture. I can't stop laughing... too funny!

Poor Gracie had to stay tied up due to her uncontrollable desire to chase animals (squirrels, dogs and such). She had a close call last year when she took off after a dog walker on the bike path... on the other side of 50 mph Fruitport Road! She was lucky she didn't get hit by a car- and I'm lucky I didn't have a heart attack! Needless to say, I learned my lesson.
We did get this pretty picture of her in front of this flower bush- poor girl had the sun in her eyes though, but she's always happy just to be outside!
