While John is away, the pups will play!

So John is away in Mobile, AL for  his P course..... for non Coast Guard people.... it's an annual "re-certification" for flying.  I decided to take a day trip with puppy dogs, so we went to the Laguna Mts and went hiking!  The mountains are around 5000 feet and there was still plenty of snow.  Enough that all four of us were sinking up to our knees for the last mile or so!!  I had to take pics of the pups b/c they were in heaven!

The pups had so much fun, but boy were they tired after. They slept all afternoon after hiking!

My Sister's Visit to SD

OK I've been lazy with blogging.  I even forgot that I had pics of my sister visiting a few weeks ago.  We cruised San Diego and let Shell have as much beach time as we could.  La Jolla was beautiful as always.....as you can see we were not the only ones enjoying the scenery!

Tahoe 09

Sorry it's been so long since I have updated the blog.  John and I just got back last week from a week long of enjoying the snow, sometimes sunshine, and snowboarding of Tahoe!  We had a great but exhausting time.  I think we need a vacation from our vacation!!  It was great to see all of John's friends up there.  We have some pics of us boarding from John's friends (thanks Nell!) but I can't create the link to access them for all of you.  We survived and are home and healthy without any broken bones! I was able to do my first serious black diamond back country trail with John and Alex!  Hopefully we will get a few more days in this season!
