winter gloom

As soon as Christmas is over and a new year begins, I'm officially over winter weather. I love to celebrate Christmas with a nice warm fire, and I'm a huge fan of winter clothes, boots, and accessories, but I can only take so much gloom. When it's foggy and cold all day, I long to soak up some sun. So, last weekend I decided to find some. Thank you, Santa Barbara, for your warm, perfectly sunny weather. 


Beautiful day at the beach

The chuck-it. For those of you with fetch-obsessed dogs, invest in one of these. They keep your hands slime-free, and require much less effort to launch a tennis ball.  I'm pretty sure if we were in a burning building and Nanaimo had to choose to save me or the chuck-it, he would save the chuck-it.



Remington's terrified of my new camera. Every time I try to capture his great big, goofy smile, he get's nervous and changes into his serious face. We're going to have to work together to get over this fear...

Snow, snow, snow, snow, SNOOOOWWWWW

We decided to start the new year right with a quick trip to the snow, and it was a HUGE success!

What's better than playing fetch?
Playing fetch in the snow!
Remember when Remington was just a pup? He was so small and sweet. Now he's huge and sweet. 
 Partners in crime. Friends. Competitors. Brothers. 

Happy New Year!
