Theo's Vacation Too

Going to the beach house is about the best vacation for man's best friend as well. He has so much fun on the beach, swimming, chasing birds, chasing sticks, napping in the sand, and such. 

He's a good sport about my picture taking as well:

April Snow Showers Bring May Flowers?

Seriously? Snow again, in the spring? Todd says it's La Nina, but jeez!
Quin of course loved it! He stomped around, threw it, laughed hysterically at Theo while he romped in it, and later watched it with excitement as he had his first real cup of hot cocoa.
Papa loved it too, and decided that to keep us cozy in the backyard he may as well start a little fire. If only we'd had marshmallows...

Spring Snow

Man's Best Friend

Yep, Theo though we may groan at your gluttony, and grimace at your grimy paws, we love the tolerance and love you show for Quinnie. When Quin laughs himself silly until he falls right onto his cushy diapered rear all because of you Theo, we can't help but love you all the more.

And now, though it is certainly hard to believe, you are 5! So, in celebration of you we remember all the fun time we've had already with you, the puppydom in Greenlake, the mountain hikes and beach romps, the new home and added bonus of nearby Hamlin Park, the introduction of the new Baby Quin, and not so long from now, the future 2nd mini tormentor. So, though we may groan and grimace at times over the hair, the vacuuming, the stolen meals, and barking, we really do love and appreciate you Theo!
