Springing into April ;o)

First Bloom of Spring
(and the only bloom!!!)

Sunny days and re-freezing nights shortened the mud season on the long driveway ... we're all wondering when the snow and pond ice will go ... our pair of annual Canada geese have been circling with no open water to land!

 How long do we have to wait ... when is the ice going?

Icicle Treats ;o)

First sighting of open water!
(Willow took her first unexpected dip!!!)

Easter ;o)

Finally! Rowboat out for "Ice-Breaking"

Saying "Good Bye" to the last of the snow!

Come-on, Hurry-up ... lets go rowing!!!

Now this is a Golden relaxing day ;o)

Sutter's getting in shape for "Projects"!

Sutter undertakes a "project"!

Sutter REALLY gets into her work!!!

I didn't want to get clean ... I have to finish my "PROJECT"!!!!

We want to send special Congratulations to our favorite "Camper" Margo (in NY) on her new sweet pups (4 girls & 3 boys) ... you've shared our family since you were 9wks old, moved on to be a show Champion and now "motherhood", a new chapter in your life sweet girl ... we miss and love you ;o)

The wild Geese, Ducks, Frogs and Peepers have all officially ushered in Spring 2013 ... shed the Winter layers of ALL kinds ;o)
