Finn update: One-year ago today, I rescued this little one...

(Or maybe he rescued me?) 

Every UPS or Fed Ex envelope from the photo labs has little chew marks on the corners.

He loves to have his favorite toys around, or in his food dish... all eight of them!

When he wants to play, he will often wrap his front arms around my leg when I'm walking (we're still working on this one...)

He's become good friends with the squirrel that sits next to the window in my office every morning.

He makes me laugh out loud at least once a day with his antics and for that alone, I love him to pieces!

He is a real joy and both he, and I could not have been luckier one-year ago today...

Winter...



Black capped chickadee tracks, an apple for the deer and a drop of water caught at just the right moment.

Who can resist this face?

I was cleaning and moving from room to room when I came into the bedroom and saw Finn sitting on the bed looking at me in the most adorable way and I just had to grab my camera.

What a smooshy boy!

Fall...


Aunty to the rescue

Living where I do, I encounter lots of little creatures, some that I am afraid of, some I am used to having around.  On Friday, I showed up at my nephews house at just the right time!  He pleaded with me to please come up to his room and catch a grasshopper for him.  "Catch a grasshopper???"  I don't even care to pick up their guinea pig!

It's amazing what one will do for a child they love as their own.  I didn't even think about it, I felt like mama bear aunty to the rescue!  As a result of my good deed and being "hero" for the day I was able to get a nice photograph out of it too :)

The beautiful and talented Miss E.
