Goodbye Baby Girl

You could catch a ball like no other dog! I don't know how many hours we bounced the ball and you would catch it on the first bounce. You loved your tennis balls, and you loved the neighbor's tomatoes that you thought were your balls. You'd come running home so excited because you had a ball, and we would have to run and throw it out before anyone knew what you were doing. I'm going to miss our morning and evening "talks." I'm going to miss you meeting me at the car every evening after work telling me you missed me, or that you were hungry.  I'm going to miss you making sure the UPS man didn't rob us.  I'm going to miss hearing you bark at anything or anybody that came near your yard.  I'm going to miss your unconditional love. I'm even going to miss the way you would shed year round. You've been my best friend for almost 11 years. I don't know what I'm going to do without you. My heart is broken. I know someday we'll play ball again, and we'll have more summer nights sitting on the porch while I tell you all my secrets, and you get your belly rubbed. You were the best girl ever. I'm so glad God let us have you for awhile. I love you Sophie Ware.

Ugh . . . bees!

I hate bees.  No ifs, ands, or buts. I hate them.  I stepped on a yellowjacket hive when I was about 8 years old.  The buzzing sound makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up.  I don't know how I got up my nerve to get close enough to get this shot. 

Spring . . . finally!

We had more beautiful weather this weekend.  Loved getting to play outside with my camera.  Jordan and I also squeezed in some golf.  Can't wait for all of the trees to bloom. I'm definitely tired of the grays and browns of Kentucky winter.  Bring on the green!

The Return

Well, it's certainly been awhile since I've been on here!  We've had an early spring, and beautiful warm days this week!  I went to Central Park to get pictures of some of the daffodils before they were all gone.  These were all taken with my Lensbaby lens, which I love!!!
