Here's our boy Shea......

This is a Daisy/Weylin son from our 2008 litter. His family reports what a happy and fun loving boy he is. Seems, like most of our cocker babies, he has a lot of admirers when he goes to the park to play. Of course with his happy-go-lucky personality, he makes a lot of friends. Shea was one year old last June.

Rolling right along.........

Driveway repairs completed, loads of new dirt/stones delivered and installed. Of course, that meant running to Sears for a new roller to pack it all down. A man and his tools.... adding to his never ending collection "to make my work easier." Gotta love 'em.

Note: Philip's riding his favorite garden tractor he purchased used in 1990.

It was ten years or more old then and he's kept it running and doing most of the work

around here. His Cub Cadet is used only when his old Sears riding mower fails.

He says the old Ford is him....when it quits, so does he.

Philip will be celebrating his 70th birthday Sept 19th.

Football season starts out great for #23......

Grandson Sam is running with the ball in green and happy after a great win in white. Looks like the Spartans are off to a great start! Go team Go!!!

Bella's first Agility trial.....

Hi Everyone. I'm Bella........Bailey's adopted sister (CC's daughter). A good friend of our family trains dogs for Agility and saw me playing in the back yard one day. She said I was a natural and began to train me. In a little over a week, I was entered in my first event. What fun!!! And they gave me a ribbon for second place. Everyone was thrilled and said I could do it some more. I'm so very happy they decided that because I absolutely love to run and jump and play. See me flying!!!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Dove!

We're having a Birthday party for Dove. I baked special biscuits for everyone and we've been playing ball all morning. Dove sends her love out to all her puppies and thanks their new families for taking such good care of them. Qyooby, Quincy, Otis, Summer and Sophie Ann have reported back to us that they are healthy and happy. Look for more photos of them in the near future.

Special "Hi" to Gma Sue!

Happy Labor Day from Thyme

No, I am not in labor on Labor Day! I have a little less than two more weeks before my puppies arrive. I just thought you'd like to see for yourself that I'm well and happy. My tummy is growing nicely and we can feel the puppies moving around. That's a strange sensation for me and I stick my nose on that wiggle wondering "what the heck is that!"

Hope everyone is having a safe and fun holiday.

Grandpa Basil and his buddies..........

Norton (red) and Ike or Mike (his brother left and we never knew which was which. So the name Ike -or- Mike stuck.)
