Smells Like Spring!

Things are greening up in our yard and the trees have blossomed out.  The grass is  a thick green carpet once again and the forsythia and lilacs are beginning to bloom.  What does that mean for us Scotties?  All kinds of good smells!  Yep, it finally smells like spring!

Sniff, sniff


Pickleball Pal

Wen took classes a year ago to learn how to play pickleball and at first, we Scotties didn’t know what to make of the plastic balls with holes in them.  They seemed to go flying everywhere when she practiced hitting balls in our laundry room and we would chase them across the floor.

Now, we are used to the repetitious popping sound of a ball hitting a pickleball paddle and we’ve pretty much stopped chasing errant balls.  I, however, have always considered myself Wen’s best buddy and now I’m her best pickleball pal.  I may not be able to play the game, but I’m always there for Scottie support!

Hey, isn’t this pickleball day?


It’s Baaaaack!

Is that the Black Shadow sneaking by Molly?  Oh, my goodness, it’s baaaack!  Okay, not that it ever left, because Sadie, our little sister, also known as the Black Shadow, is not going anywhere.  Nope, she’s part of our family and one third of the Scottie population at our house.  And what does that mean for Molly and me?  A permanent Black Shadow following us around!


The Black Shadow

Every once in awhile, you can see the black shadow in our living room.  The black shadow is very quick to jump up on top of the couch or love seat and stake a claim. Sometimes the black shadow hangs out for awhile on its high perch,  but usually the black shadow moves quickly, so if you see it and look away, it will be gone.

Actually, the black shadow is not an it, it’s a her and she’s our sister, Sadie.  Blink once and she’s there, blink twice and she’s gone!


 


Happy Mother’s Day!

Today is Mother’s Day and we honor our mothers today.  It doesn’t matter if our moms are our birth moms or our adopted moms and it doesn’t matter if your kids have two legs or four legs.  Moms deserve a special day for everything you do and we love you all!
