The week we moved into our new house. Testing out their new bedroom.
And yes they lay like this all the time, all I did was cover them. Alex LOVES to be under the covers, he burrows under every night.

This picture has special meaning to me, as it's from early on when we adopted Scout. Something about seeing her soaking in the gentle warm light makes me feel like all is right with the world.

Yes, she really does! And she is a great spotter since she sits in the front of the boat and watches the kids intently while they are tubing, skiing, etc. I can tell if they fall just by watching her face. She's quite the worrier until they are safely back in the boat.

Since there is a major overdose of puppy cute in this thread, I picked an adult picture of Annie. It shows just what I see in her every day...so sweet, gentle and peaceful.

I figured, with all the puppy pics, I'd never win.. and since most of my entries were of Ellie, I decided to find one with Lexie..

The end of 3 rounds from their 1st meeting... Tuffzilla vs. Lexie..

Tuffzilla won.. initially..

Perhaps Baby Miah was knocked out by the smell of her own toes.

Light Bulb Lab... I heard someone on this or another board call their lab this and thought that is what I have too... Out of the hundreds of pic of Harley, I only have three that he is even close to sleeping, as soon as he hears ANYTHING he is On like a light. Ya, that is what we got a Lght Bulb Labbie.:D

Can,t compete with the Puppy cutness factor so I'll try something a little different... B&W.
