Every sunbeam is important and should be treated as such.

The welcoming committee.
It begins at 3:00, when the cars and busses start passing by.
The pacing and standing at the door begin...
by the time the first kid walks through the door Lola is in full on spaz mode
10 full minutes of kissing and jumping later
we have one content puppy.

She always wants to be near me. love

The morning routine:
Bud gets my extra milk on his dog food. Lola waits (impatiently) on the other side of the door to get at his food. She paces, and turns in circles. She vibrates at the thought of getting some of his food. Bud barks to let me know he's done, and I try to get Lo to sit and wait. Ha. She barrels through the door and can manage to get 3 or 4 huge mouthfuls of his food before I pull the bowl away, if there is any left. What in the world are we feeding him that is so delicious?? Pedigree weight management.

Another funny shot this morning...gotta catch those elusive sunbeams where you can!

If you have a lap, I will sit in it.

I love this photo! Totally reminds me of those cheesy school pictures from the 80's with the silhouette.

Russells on a Porch
(Not as scary as Snakes on a Plane, although there is some growling from the senior member of the team.)

132:365 9/10

So tired after a long walk, Lola can barely hold herself upright!

Undercover Russell

Someone does not like that the kids are gone all day to school. At 3:05 when the busses drive by, she starts running around looking for them. They are sure to get a 10 minute frenzied greeting when they walk through the door :)

Saying goodbye to the kids on the first day of school.
