Maddie was bound to be a dog lover since we had a bouncer with a dog on it that she would sit and stare at as a newborn. Then we had 10 puppies at our home when she was only 4 months old. But her passion for Mia, our black lab has been a surprise. She loves her. I find almost daily them cuddling with one another. I have been looking through pictures and came across all these gems….

We love you Mia!!!
I may be speaking too soon, but I am SOOOO ready for spring!! Our driveway is fully melted and our back yard just has a couple little piles of snow left. It is suppose to get up to 65 degrees this weekend, but then go back down to the 40s again on Monday. ): However, they haven’t mentioned the four letter S word…Snow. So here is to hoping!!
Just as a reminder this is what MANY days of winter looked like. I did enjoy it most of the time, so this is by no means a “complaining post,” just a reminder of how deep the snow got and how the icicles grew in abundance.
The ICICLES…
This isn’t actually our home, but it is exactly what our icicles looked like…
I may or may not have shoveled all this pavement too many times for a pregnant woman. shhhh…don’t tell.
The backyard was filled with snow. Poor Mia, I felt so bad for her some days. Other days she seemed to rather enjoy scratching her back in the cool snow. She also had hilarious tracks she made to all her favorite spots in the yard. I wish I would have take a photo of those!
Views around the neighborhood.
It was so clear you could see all the way to the Great Salt Lake and down to Bountiful!
Look at these mounds of snow!!!
I love the mountain views at sunset.

More webcam photos… I love when the 2 and 5 year olds are in front of the camera!! I wanted to label all these, but their faces are much better than anything I could say.
I love the personality…
