End of the school year, beginning of the summer. I have never forgotten how that feels, but now I get to see it through the eyes of my children and dogs.

During the school year my dogs wait by the front door when the kids leave for school, and start staring out the window about ten minutes before they come home. They love when summer hits and everyone is home, it’s simply way more fun!

The initial blow out and celebration, bare feet, staying up late, sleeping in, and riding bikes over to a friends house, awesome. My dogs love it too. The kids are home and that means way more fun adventures for them. Hikes, mountain bike rides, and friends coming to our house to play soccer, volleyball, and bad mitten, $eekers dream games!

Everyone gets something new to start the summer. This year the dogs got toys that are similar to the toys they had when they were puppies, the excitement was crazy. $eeker was chattering, Story ran like a freight train, and Ocean seemed to be smiling all morning. They just never forget, who would have thought a pink Wubba could bring so much joy!

But then we scored big, Story now has his first, and very cool I might add, blingy collar! I always knew he could pull off spikes! This will be his going to special events collar, it rocks!

Happy beginning of Summer! Nancy
