Photos: Saying Goodbye to Lily
Saying Goodbye to Lily Saying goodbye is painful, especially when you know it’s the end. We said goodbye to our best friend with four adorable paws on Sunday night. It was not easy to say goodbye and it still hurts deeply. Lily, or Lily-cat as I often called her, had an exceptional life; and with having her in our lives came some of my most cherished memories. She loved to play, eat ice cream, and go for car rides. More than that, though, she loved…

Photos: Lily’s 9th Birthday
It’s Lily’s 9th Birthday! Well, it was on January 18, 2018. She’s a Great Dane who is full of spunk and excited to turn 9. If you follow me on Instagram you’ve probably already seen these, yet they’re too good not to share here, too. Let’s check out the past year for Lily! I remember back in June, when we were in Glacier National Park in Montana with Lily, a lady came up to us and just started hugging Lily. Her Great Dane was at…

Photos: Woof Wednesday 2.0
Woof Wednesday 2.0 The perfect little day to share some adorable picture of some of my favourite pups and to share a silly one of me and Lily. I did a Woof Wednesday post last year and I like them – it’s just a little pick-me-up mid week. As most of you know, we said goodbye to Bella a month ago – that was hard. What’s been so fun, though, is learning more about Lily and seeing how much she loves attention, the word R-I-D-E,…

Jasper Park Lodge We had a fabulous time in late February at this Fairmont Resort. Our plan was to visit earlier in the week, February 22-25 or so for a few nights, yet with work demands we had to put the trip on hold. We struggled with the idea of going for one night on the weekend, February 27-28, yet we are so happy we made the trip, especially since we recently said goodbye to Bella. The drive up from Edmonton was beautiful – clear…

Photos: Saying Goodbye to Bella
Saying Goodbye to Bella Saying goodbye to Bella was what we did on Monday night. Honestly, the most heartbreaking experience I’ve had yet. But, what makes it okay and what makes me feel at ease are all of the precious memories Bella left me with. She was an amazing friend who demanded my attention and tested my patience. She was also the cuddle monster, the earliest riser our house has even seen, and the chuck-it champion. Here are a few photos and some sweet memories…

Photos: Lexi Girl
This is Lexi Girl! It’s Friday and I wanted to share some adorable photos! Lexis is a terrier mix and she belongs to friends of ours – we watched her for 10 special days while they hit the road for Vancouver and these are some of my favourite shots I got on my iPhone. Not the greatest quality, yet she’s cute nonetheless. First off, where does the name ‘Lexi Girl’ come from? Well, it just sort of started as something I said. When my dogs,…

Photos: Sweet Potato Dog Treats
Sweet potato dog treats! Yes – especially for this princess birthday. Miss Bella (or as I mostly call her – Bella-rama) turned 11 yesterday. She’s had some close calls over the last couple of years, so it’s quite special that she’s still with us and in relatively good health. Dogs are wonderful – so cuddly and just fun to hang out with. This little recipe is easy. Recipe 1 – buy sweet potatoes 2 – slice them thinly 3 – bake at 250 degrees for…
