Spring is on its way to this part of the world and that means more time outside.

The dogs and I went to the park this weekend. The main activity of the day was running.

There was running in the woods.

And running in the fields.

Both dogs enjoyed exploring.

I love the look on Sadie’s face in this picture.

And in this one.

Luka continued his love affair with water.

At one point he became a bit obsessed with a tennis ball.

Where was Sadie while Luka was frolicking in the stream? She was catching a quick nap in the sunshine.

All of the park activity led to Sadie’s second favorite pastime….holding down the couch.

Sometimes Luka helps Sadie hold down the couch.

Luka is clearly not as committed as Sadie is, though. He’s been busy making friends with his new brother. (Notice how Milo’s paw is ready to bat Luka if he gets too close.)

Speaking of Milo, I don’t believe I’ve adequately demonstrated just how adorable he can be.

Here’s something random I noticed the other night.

Sadie is not a dainty girl, but her paw is dwarfed by Luka’s paw.

Finally, some knitting…the current pair of socks.
