Still waiting for Spring....

Well yesterday was a great teaser...again - 70 degrees clear sunny a beautiful day..then...WHAM! Rain-snow winter storm warnings and it is freezing again! Oh well welcome to Utah - Someday the new huge redwood swing set will be put together, every time we get a splash of warm we run outside and work on it but then have to pack it in cuz it gets cold.

Our new big dog Nanook is loving the farm she lollops all over the yard tripping over her own huge paws it is so funny to watch her - It's Like a cartoon. I think she is weighing in at 60 lbs and she is 14 weeks old. Pixie thinks she is a pony and tries to sit on Nanook - thank goodness Nanook is a good sport and happily rolls around the pasture playing with Pixie - I think our little dog Coco would eat Pixie if she tried to play with her like that..
Kokopelie is not sure what she thinks of the new puppy especially when she went to answer the front door yesterday and found that Nanook had decided to help her garden and had spread the bag of potting soil all over the front stoop...naughty puppy!
Pixie has also been a busy kid she went to Disneyland a few weeks ago and had a great time!!
and keeping with being spoiled we are off to see the mouse again with her best cousin and grandma in May!!

Enough with the snow!!!

OK - what happened to in like a lion.....Out like a lamb?? Here we are the end of March and I am getting emails from work notifying me of a winter storm warning and 9-13 inches of snow!! ENOUGH I SAY!! I am ready to camp and be warm and work in my yard. Pixie has a half finished swing set that is waiting for warm weather to get finished. The only member of our family liking this cold is our crazy new baby dog. Her Name is Nanook (which means Polar Bear is Native American) She is going to be as big as a polar bear but Nanook is all black. She is a 12 week old Newfoundland and is weighing in at a trim 60 lbs at this stage. She looks like a baby bear loping around the yard. Here are a couple of pictures of her with the breeder Zoe we bought her from:
Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.
