Roadtrip to Solvang, CA

We went on a roadtrip to Solvang, CA with the poochie girls. My point-and-shoot camera has lost its auto-focus. I still took photos with my cell phone. Not the greatest resolution.

Cutie Pie

Mikaela had a nap on my lap today and made plenty of cute faces. Unfortunately the photos came out a little blurry as I used my cellphone to snap away.

Nap Time!

The poochie girls sharing a good spot for a nap. Since Mikaela can now get on the couch by herself, Mackenzie has had to share her favorite napping spot.

Resting between rounds

The poochie girls have been active all morning. Chasing each other, play fighting, chewing on toys... And then the calm silent rest that follows morning play time just before the afternoon schedule.

The cardboard boxes in the background signal another move. Mikaela is quite convince that all those boxes are giant doggy chew toys. Apparently a plain old box is more fun than shiny colorful puppy toys.

Happy Mother's Day Grandma!

From the Granddogs!

Toys toys toys

Every night I put away all the puppy toys and every morning Mikaela spreads her toys all over the floor. She's a multitasker: she plays with a couple of toys all at once, rotating toys every 30 seconds or so. Then she gets bored with all of them and picks out a new combination of toys and starts the whole process again.

Running around on grass

We took the poochie girls to a park overlooking the ocean in Palos Verdes. The ran around and wrestled while we layed in the green grass and stared at the blue sky for a few hours. Given the climate around here, there aren't many public parks with pristine grounds with green luscious grass.
