These Gerberas are a week and a half old. Still, just beautiful.

Which dog is Tai?

The way out

Might have to use it if the karaoke party at the La Quinta pool goes much longer.

Heading to Texas for the USDAA agility regionals. Not happy to see Tai in his crate left out in 88 degree heat. );

Retired

I realized today that my 10 1/2 year old Golden Retriever, Sugar, is finally, and officially retired. She has acute arthritis, and is having difficulty moving around. I think she just over extended herself at the beach this weekend, and re-injured an already sensitive shoulder.  It will get better in time.  But I also think it's time for her to take it easy.  (:   She's earned it.

I love her so.....

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to the most amazing woman I know!

The boys after brunch.  Tai forever holding out hope that a tennis ball will be thrown.

Teaching my cat some agility skills.

I just left the garden store. It's going to be a fun day!

love you two!

Two of my best friends, Kim and Tim.

tai & tucker

At least three times a week, I take a walk up to the local espresso bar, for my morning latte.  I always take Sugar and Tai with me.  And almost every day, Tai's friend, Tucker follows us.  Tai and Tucker have a "thing."  I'm not exactly sure what that "thing" is, but take a look for yourself...

So far, they''ve chased balls in the yard, the cat in the house, and cars in their sleep.

thinking of you, Mieko.

for mieko

God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us,

in the dreariest and most dreaded moments, 

can see a possibility of hope.

8 for 8

Tai had an exceptional agility weekend!  He went 8 for 8, earning 3 double Q's, 

and placing 1st in 7 of the runs.  This could be a once in a lifetime picture.
