p.1 #1 · Mikey's First Walk in the Snow with his Golden Family (and more snacks)
Over the weekend we had our first snow of the season here in the Boise area, so of course that meant taking a walk in the foothills with Mrs. Whip and the furry grandchildren. Mikey (now six months old) hadn't been in the snow before, so it was a new adventure for him. He quite enjoyed it! And of course the other five always love bounding through the white stuff. We're fortunate to have some nice trails in the nearby hills where they can run around and play.
BTS - Along the ridge on the way back, I saw a great spot for a group photo. Mrs Whip tried to line them up - never easy without some snacks in her pocket as an incentive. Everyone was pretty cooperative - except Mikey, who hasn't quite got the whole "sit" and "stay" concept figured out just yet.

Just fantastic "children" playing!! Beautiful! My children are gone and a piece of me went with each one that left prematurely. Too old for any now..I fear that if something happened to us, my "child" would go to an unknown.
Sorry to ramble on but your images are just moving!

Thanks so much, all. So glad to hear you enjoy these images of our delightful furry grandchildren. It’s pretty overwhelming to have all six in our little house, but they’re all really good dogs, each with their own very unique personalities!
