Slow Days

One of the things I love most about warmer weather is how we tend to slow down and enjoy all the little things that we ignore when it’s cold and we are in a hurry to get from here to there.

    Great pictures. I’m so ready to slow down. I’m always ready to slow down 😉

    Hudson is like a giant now! Buddy thinks he is on stick patrol too. One of my favorite memories of our dog Purdy was that she would drag trees around. She’d find the biggest tree that she could fit her mouth on and her and her son Sparky would each take an end. You’d look outside and they would be running with a tree in their mouth. It would always crack me up 🙂
