Sadie is 2 Years Old!

Sadie is all growed up now!

And GO DUCKS in your quest for a National Championship!

Beach Day!

After a long and rainy winter... and spring... and start of summer, Mother Nature decided the dogs deserved a day at the beach. The weather was perfect, the dogs had fun, and there was minimal burning of our pasty white skin!

After Cooper whined for 30 minutes as we got closer to the coast, the dogs immediately went to play in the water.

Coop likes to splash in the waves, while the city girl prefers to keep her feet in the sand.

Nothing better than a good roll in hot sand!

Sadie didn't get to make many snow angels this last year, so she spent all day making "sand princesses".

As you saw from a post last year, Cooper is a hole digging machine. A little neurotic about it actually.

Sometimes he grins while digging.

Sometimes he put's some thought into the construction.

And sometimes he just gets after it.

Having fun Sadie?

Having fun Coop?

Gotta dig, gotta dig, gotta dig...

Nice hole dude.

Sadie got worn out just watching the old guy. Who was...

Still going strong...

Thank God for global warming, otherwise it would be really cold in February...

Sadie Update

Little Sadie is turning into a little dog. Almost as big as Coop and twice as mean, she'll be running the house before too long.

Beach Day

To escape the heat, we hit the beach this weekend. It was Sadie's first trip to the beach, and she had a good time.

We have a couple of "secret" beaches we go to, and they were relatively free from people. We also hit Pacific City and it was the busiest I have ever seen it.

I tried a little fishing, with no success. Lots of fog, wind and rough seas. Reminded me of a March day on the coast.

Nothing better than a cold beer and a warm dog...
