Sometimes we just need to take a break from the world and close our eyes and dream a little. Right Ginger?

Daisy and ZuZu pause for a moment while playing to pose among the beautiful spring colors. Colors as beautiful as their smiles and their wonderful souls.

Look at that smile . . . As Ginger nears her first birthday, she is filling out and looking like a dog for crying out loud. We've never seen a puppy so happy and loving life, every day is a celebration.

As a follow-up to a couple of earlier posts, here is a montage of Ginger at 8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and now at 9 months old. Yes, Ginger will always be our little one, our puppy.

Nine month old Ginger and her almost 12 year old sister hanging out on a beautiful spring morning. The energy of youth and the wisdom of the years.

Ginger is growing so fast, and here's another montage showing her at 8 weeks, 3 months and 6 months. And yes, Ginger, we'll love you even more when you're not a puppy!
