Photos: Daphne Gets a Haircut
Daphne gets a haircut! Well, this is her fifth big haircut and she’ll be two in July. She’s an Afghan Hound and her hair keeps growing and growing. She’s such a pretty pup, but her long hair is a magnet for sticks (sometimes branches), dirt and all things wilderness. Back in late April she got a haircut and looks like a totally different pup – same sassiness, though – no worries there! Okay, let’s check out some before photos. Before This bed is her favourite…

Photos: Woof Wednesday 4.0
Woof Wednesday 4.0! I don’t think I’ll ever stop sharing photos of Daph-Daph here on the blog, so Woof Wednesdays are officially a thing, especially considering we’re running the fourth edition! Bella and Lily had a couple of Woof Wednesdays, too. Okay, today we’re celebrating having Daphne the Afghan Hound in our lives for one year (well, one year and 3 weeks today!) – these photos were taken on the exact same weekend one year later. She’s grown so much. Such a cutie. She was…

Project: Deer Fence
Deer fence! What? Yes, we installed a 6.5 foot deer fence in May. It took us about 3 weeks from beginning to end (we worked about 4 full days, and then a couple of hours on odd evenings). Deer Fence Bryce had to brush cut more than 2000 feet of paths so we could get the fence in, and we gained a bit of land on the west side since the markers set back in 1970 were way, way off. Happy we got a land…

Project: Stay Home
Stay home – with everything that’s going on right now, staying home as much as possible is best. I know that Daph-Daph loves when we’re home. So, what to do? Recipes! Projects! Sewing! Things that move to the back burner…travel planning (and you know how much I love travel planning). Okay, I’ll share with you three of my favourite things to do when I’m home – something to feel productive, something fun, and something to eat. I mean, snacks. Who doesn’t love snacks? Stay Home:…

Photos: Daphne the Afghan Hound
Daphne the Afghan Hound – she’s one of the sweetest, goofiest, and weirdest dogs ever. And, she’s our new pup. In December Bryce and I were busy – so busy with work and since it had been more than two years since we said goodbye to Bella, and about 20 months since we said goodbye to Lily, we thought – hey, let’s get a dog to help slow us down. After a dinner out and over tacos we decided on an Afghan Hound. Now, where…
