Labor Day Weekend

For this fine holiday weekend we went to the White Mountains and spent time with Brian's family. The weather was gorgeous with sunny mornings and afternoon rain and cool to cold evenings. Quite a change from our blistering heat in the Valley. The fields surrounding the house were more green than I've ever seen it in my 9+ years of visiting. It is wonderful to see our state of Arizona getting so much rain!

Max always has an absolute blast. He gets to run and play to his hearts content. At home he has a nice size back yard to play in, but up north he has 5+ acres to run and frollic. When he was younger, he'd play for 24 hours straight without sleeping that first night. Now he gets tired by the first night and is ready to go to bed. Here is a picture of him on the second night so tired that he didn't move all night long.
We were looking forward to meeting Max's dog cousin who just recently moved there with his family. Rocky (Boxer) had been hit by a car that morning and passed away. Rocky was a good dog and will be missed by his family of husband and wife and 5 children.

Hi Nancy and Brian - I LOVE the harlequin pattern in Lily's room! When you come to our house for the next FCC meeting you will see that pattern in one of our paintings. :)

Your four legged babies are adorable! I will send you a great article from the Humane Society about how to get your pets ready for a baby. There is hope for beautiful Gracie! Take care, Laura and Dan
