Emmett's snow day

 This past weekend we had back to back snow storms, leaving us with about a foot of snow. We haven't seen this much snow at once in UPstate NY for a few years no, and Emmett is a snow lover. He was so excited!

Co-napping

Styles had a habit of sleeping in Emmett's crate. Who can blame him? It has a orthopedic pad in it! Sometimes Emmett gets really tired and climbs in to take a nap with him. They don't really get along otherwise, but when I see them sharing the crate it melts my heart.

 This weekend my sister and I took Emmett and Arthur out to visit their relatives! Arthur was reunited with his mom and siblings for the first time since he left as a baby last spring. This picture is mama Tatiana leading the pack.

 Arthur is a little unsure of all these dogs running around.

 Emmett says 'hi' to his mamma.

 Arthur reintroduced himself to mamma.

 Emmett's full sister Aly pins him to the ground.

 Can you tell they are littermates?

Ms Trixie

We've been dog sitting for Ms Trixie while her mamma went on vacation. Emmett and Trixie have had a great time together this past week, but now it's time for Trixie to go back home with her mamma. Emmett's going to miss having her around to cuddle with at bed time for sure!

Emmett's First Birthday Party

 For Emmett's first birthday, his doggy daycamp, Happy Paws on Pawling planned a great party for him!

 This is one of Emmett's daycamp buddies Dallas. He's half puggle and half bulldog. He and 3 other dogs were coming along with us on Emmett's special birthday hike.

 So happy!

Time for the off-leash hike!

 The birthday hike gang take a break near the waterfall.

We are so lucky to have found such a wonderful place for Emmett to go burn off his energy a couple of times a week. Thank you so much for the great birthday party!

 When the summer starts to wind down, I get the urge to get my craft on...new afghan in progress!
