A little sunshine

I need a little sunshine in my life at the moment- so much unhappiness lately, so I am ready to show off what I enjoy about life rather than dwelling on all that other stuff. :)  I'm fortunate I have my two favourite flowers, blooming up a storm!! First of all, my baskets of pansies on the front step. Love them!

This is the first year I've had these tulips really bloom. Love them too!

Sorry, they are a litte fuzzy, but they give you the idea at least of my front garden.

And, the view from my door step as I was leaving for work, May 18th. Sun comes up at about 5AM now.

And finally, my dogs love to hang with each other in the sun.

Spike loves being on the deck.

Murph, looking around.

Oh there you are Murphy!

Sophie, drying off in the sun. She loves to have a play in our paddling pool then dry in the sun.

My girls watching the neighbours cut their lawn.

And, after sunbathing comes napping on my bed. Spike and Murphy cuddled up together.

I am not so sure Murph likes being used a pillow but she stayed there for a long time!

I love that my dogs all get along so well and can hang out together with no problems. Nothing like a furry face to help a person feel better!

Off to see the family!

I took a break this week and journeyed off to visit the family in Pambrun! It was a quick trip with me leaving on Tuesday AM, and coming back on Thursday but I didn't want to miss flyball (which incidently was cancelled due to rain! :( ). Anyway, while short and sweet, it was fun! Jorin and my dad were busy working at a sports camp at the college, while Mom, Dorothy and I entertained ourselves, walking and taking photos, and stamping cards. 

Dorothy, working in the kitchen.

Anyway, Michael has been bitten by the cycling bug!

Katherine does ride a bike finally, on her own but is far more content riding in the trailer!

Jorin borrowed a tandem bike and so he and Mike took Kathy out for a ride on the Wednesday afternoon. I can't believe Michael is capable of cycling on that crazy bike!!

And I leave you with my favourite photo I took. It's columbine, in the neighbor's garden. I snuck in to get the photo; it was just too pretty to not!!
