Spring is finally here and the dogs are just as excited as I am. Princess is excited to chase the chipmunks and squirrels around. Lady is enjoying all the available water to drink out of pots and Oliver just loves romping around. The only thing is they are massively fluffy from winter but they will be groomed soon. Here are some photos of the pack enjoying the backyard when the snow went away.

Trees are so magnificent. Tall, strong and beautiful all at the same time. This earth would not be the same without them. I like trees but let me tell you my mom loves trees. She could never live in a place with no trees. I think she would go crazy. Hehe. What is your favorite type of tree? Mine are dogwood trees but weeping willows are right behind. The photo above is the dogwood tree in our front yard. As you can see it blooms wonderful pink flowers in the spring time. I guess dogwoods are also my favorite because look what word it has in it. Dog!
Oh, did I tell you I taught Oliver a new trick?! Well, I did. Guess which one. Rollover. He is so smart! Let me tell you. It only took me, with pupperoni in my hand and a happy attitude to get him to accomplish it. He learned it in just a few minutes. A few minutes! He is brilliant. I bet I could teach him so much more. The only problem is he gets distracted so easily and he is always bouncing around. Always! Especially, if I have food in my hand or a toy. Its a challenge but I actually wanna teach all three dogs more tricks. They know a lot already but they can learn a lot more.
As you can see. I am surrounded by Callie and Princess when I am sleeping but I would not change it for anything. Callie likes to sleep above my head or near my feet most of the time. When she is not sleeping she is causing some sort of trouble. As for Princess, she sleeps next to me on her pillow. Yes, she has a pillow. Well, its mine but since I only need one I let her use the it. If she is not next to me I am holding her in my arms. She is my best sleeping medicine. Except, she sleeps on the floor when its warm because she starts making her clucking noise. Yes, a clucking noise. I will have to record it one day. Anyways, arent they cute together? Callie enjoys being around the dogs and I am glad Princess tolerates her.
I know you all want to know which photo I chose to enter in the photo contest. Do not worry. I am planning on sharing the results with you soon. I am just as excited as you are. Hehe! Until then I hope you have wonderful plans for the weekend and have fun. It is suppose to rain all weekend here so I might not do much. Maybe, I will record some videos and write a few short blog posts. Keep checking back because the chosen photo will be up soon! Peace out.
Today was the first day of my Spring break. My last Spring break I will ever have! Wow. How am I going to spend it? Well, taking lots of photographs. Of what? Hmm. Well, my dogs of course and plants that are coming alive. I would also like to record lots of videos with my video camera of my opinions about certain subjects and whatever else sparks my mind. The weather is suppose to be wonderful so I will have to go on one of my long bicycle rides I love to do. My plan for this break is just to have fun because there are no more long breaks before I graduate in June. Its not that far off! So time to enjoy my Spring break before it is gone.
Spring weather. Gotta love it! Its been raining for the past few days but that’s okay because the next few days it is suppose to be sunny and in the seventies! I took this photo about a week or so ago. I loved how no all the clouds were getting lit up by the sun. Clouds even look better in the Spring time. Hehe. Maybe its just my excitement. What is your favorite thing about Spring? Mine is probably watching plants come alive again and the warmer weather. Gotta love it!
Walking outside in a t shirt. The windows down in the car. Blooming plants. Everything seems to be coming alive slowly but surely on this first day of spring in New Jersey.
Princess got her Spring haircut Sunday because the weather is getting warmer and she gets hot easily with her thick coat she has. She was not too happy with me. I mean she is the best dog out of the three to groom. Just stands there on the table being patient with me. She looks at me every once in a while wondering if I am done yet, but most of the time she keeps her head turned away. I mainly shaved down her body, belly and legs with a number seven blade. Princess and the two other dogs hate their feet groomed so that was the only challenge I had. I left her tail and just trimmed up her head a little bit. I think I did a pretty good job. Not perfect but I am satisfied with it. Now, the real challenge are the two other dogs that I must do one of these days. That will be fun. Oh, by the way Princess forgave me for torturing her when I let her snuggle with me on my bed Sunday night. Thats my girl!
Its been a long time since I could go to school in just a t shirt and no hoodie. Felt great! The temperature was in the high fifties and the sun was shining with not a cloud in the sky. There was also a nice breeze. It was a perfect day!
The first sign of spring popped up in the garden a few days ago. It is so exciting to see the first flowers of spring. Know what they are? Snow drops. These pretty little white flowers put a smile on my face knowing that spring is in the air. Woohoo! The garden is coming alive!
I just noticed today that the leaves are starting to change colors. Fall is more visual everyday. Green leaves are starting to turn red, orange and brown. Soon they will be falling too. It means I will keep my camera by my side to capture the beauty of fall. The seasons are spectacular here in Jersey. Just one of the parts of New Jersey that I enjoy. Even though I am not a fan of winter it is always nice to experience the change.
Its Friday! I am happy. Four day weekend. Yippy. Lots of time to do stuff besides school. Yay! Maybe take a long bicycle ride or take my dogs on a nice long walk. I definitely need to clean my dogs and get the fleas off them. Going to wash them thoroughly with Dawn dish soap. It works I heard. Going to see how it works on my dogs. Lets home it solves the whole flea problem so my dogs dont suffer anymore.
This photo I took during spring. I know I know its not spring time but I want to remember it. Its buds on a tree. Just liked the composition. What do you think? Let me know your thoughts. Anways, I am going to surf the net and play my music. My usual routine of my night. Then get some sleep and great thing is I do not have to wake up early for school. Yay. Hope everyone is excited for the weekend. Peace.
