Ready for the Weekend

Whew! What a week it has been so far, I have been so busy this past week that I cannot wait for the weekend to be here and relax. Dixie has two hot spots (which it seems she gets every summer)unfortunately so she has had to sport her Elizabethean collar and she is not happy about this at all. Nor is she happy about the antibiotic spray! Jeff shaved her undercoat near her hind legs (where she has them) on Tuesday night though and I can already tell that the spots are clearing up.

I hate when she gets them though because the infections look and smell so awful, plus they are really painful for her. The stench is unbearable! She is going to get a summer cut every summer from now on!

Just wanted to post some pictures of the girls, nothing too exciting but here are my girls....


Dixie is really losing weight & looking great! I need to get a shot of her from the side...


Daisy loves smelling my flowers...


Love my girls!

Back from St. Augustine

Jeff and I headed down to St. Augustine last Thursday for the 4th of July weekend and we just got back last night. The dogs were so tired on the trip home that we only stopped twice for gas. Lady, Dixie and Dryfus slept the entire trip home. I have never seen the three so tired!

Jeff's entire family always gets together on the 4th of July, so it is a family tradition. We had a great time & got lots and lots of sun! There were 17 people and 6 canines in one house and Miss Dixie loved every bit of it. She kept trying to get into the pool but never would take the plunge nor would she get in the lake.

The food was fabulous and I think I gained about 5 pounds on the trip because I snacked throughout the entire day pretty much everyday, but I don't ever do that, so it was a treat! I got to spend lots of quality time with Jeff's family and I really liked his sister-in-law, Kim. She was so sweet & I am excited for our Keys trip which is coming up so I will be able to spend more time with them.

I didn't take too many pictures on the trip because we were always at the beach or doing something, but here are some pictures from the trip.....


Beautiful flowers Jeff got me for our anniversary...Love him!



Lily was so happy last night that she literally ran outside on the porch after I got home.



Meg watching the water from the boat. Meg is Jeff's brother and sister-in-law's family dog. She was so pretty & a sweetheart! She was a red golden with the most soulful eyes I have ever seen in a dog..



Jeff and I on the boat...We went down the intercoastal which was so beautiful and amazing to say the least!



Hunter driving the boat and Scott giving him pointers.



Dryfus on the 4th of July with all his gear in tact. I just had to take a picture of this because it was too funny!



Alexis, Hunter & Baylee (Hunter & Baylee are Jeff's neice and nephew)



Love and Dixie....



Meg and Dixie. Sandy (Jeff's mom) got all the dogs 4th of July bandanas that were adorable so I was trying to get a picture of Meg & Dixie in their bandanas, but that attempt failed as you can see.




Dryfus snoozing on Dixie's lap...
