More Winter Wonderland

It's that time of year... to show you Christmas trees... and is there any decoration more beautiful than God's snow??

Tough slogging for poor old Brandy though...

These two just leap through it... I just love it when they pause to admire the beauty as well...

Their snowy little faces are so sweet...

And what do you think of my "snow snakes" I found?? Gorgeous, eh?! Posted a bunch more photos on my Facebook page, for those of you who are Facebook friends~

A Romp in the Woods

Ah! The great big outdoors... How my girls and I do love it!

So much to see and do out there...

They have so much fun exploring...

And run their little legs off!

Sure is pretty out there...

Some candid shots...

This is Amber's Mommy - Salsa... Pretty, eh?

I found a snuggle bum... Wish I could have kept her!

Ah! Priceless... This little guy was a real sweetie too and his owners are super nice people. He'll have a great life with those doting girls!

One very special little girl...

Mommy, I can't take my eyes off of you!

Dog Show continued

Some very pretty colors out there...

It is always nice to see so many of the Lhasas in the ring at the same time.

I just love all the various colors they come in...

Hey! Are you coming with me?? lol

Lovely to watch!

Belleville Dog Show

For those of you who could not make it to the dog show, I am posting some pictures, as it is rare to see so many beautifully groomed, full coated Lhasas in the same room... Enjoy!

Waiting for the Lhasa's turn in the ring

Last minute grooming...

Goodness, aren't we going in soon? I'm tired of waiting! lol

First they walk around the ring, so the judge can see the movement.
This little gal is still a pup - what a beautiful coat she will have as an adult, to be this nice already!

Then they are up on the table for the judge to determine how closely they conform to the breed standard.

After the rain...

There are puddles! ha ha... New watering hole...

I was so thankful the pups were tired and did not decide to play in it!

Then we all came indoors again for a little nap

Tiggie was out like a light!

Hey! I'm trying to sleep here!

Ha ha... one wet dog and one more muddy one to go...

Well, thank goodness Cassie did not get as dirty!

Cassie and Mysti sure were frisky after their baths!

Now it is time to clean the entry and the sink... sigh! This scene may repeat several more times today....

And to think I asked for this...

Yes... it has been so dry around here I was really hoping for rain... but looks what happens then!

Yup! Lots of wet dogs!

Hmmm... wet would not be so bad... but muddy... Do I HAVE to let them in?? Yuck!

Okay... one at a time... to the sink!

Oh, but she sure had fun!!!

Seems quiet with only seven now...

Poor Cassie seems bored without Halley attacking at her anymore... ha ha... we miss her spunk!

Brandy came over to check out her babe and just like that, Cassie was happy again!

Oh, oh... Momma is tiring of this game...

Darn... now what will I do??

Hey... maybe " SHE" will play with me??? Brandy is almost asleep here... lol

Finally we got some rain!

Yeah... now maybe I could roll that hose up, eh? ha ha... lazy!

The dogs were really enjoying playing outdoors, since it had cooled down a bit...

Didn't even rain hard enough to make the ground wet under the trees... so I guess the hose will have to stay out for now.

Thought you might enjoy these shots - nine dogs!

Hard for the puppies to stay sitting while they wait their turn, but they are learning...

I love to watch the dogs all play together... just wish they would turn around... ha ha! This is the view I usually get...

Watching pups is like watching a toddler - always on to something new. It's an interesting world

Hey you guys... get out of my hole! lol...

Wondering where Brandy is?? ha ha... smart gal - took a break and had a snooze...
