Our Furry Babies in the Snow...

It's cold, 4 degrees this morning, and we are expecting a high of 23 degrees today, but at least the sun is out.  Izzie and Emmi have differing opinions about the snow.  Izzie LOVES it, she runs through it, rolls in it, and isn't in much of a hurry to come inside.  Emmi, in her little coat, HATES the snow.  She stands at the door, looking up at me like she's asking why she has to go out there... She stays inside the path that is shoveled for her, or at least very near the path, and she rushes back inside as quickly as she can.  Although, as I've said before, if she sees a squirrel out there she would run after it and not pay any attention to the snow.  With her ears flying in the breeze and her feet kicking up the snow, she tries her best to catch those squirrels.  It's funny!!  The other thing she likes is when daddy is outside with them... They both love it when he tosses snowballs, they run and try to catch them as they break apart in their mouths, it's cute.  Emmi doesn't pay any attention to the fact that she's in the cold snow when she's playing with daddy!!  When it's this cold outside though, they can't be out too long, their paws can't take the cold snow too long.  I know they have doggie boots, but neither of our dogs would like that very much! lol!  Emmi is a good sport about her coat, but that's about all she would go for!

Zehnder's Snowfest 2013

We lucked out this year at the Zehnder's Snowfest, the sun was out and it wasn't windy, so it was very nice walking around enjoying all of the snow and ice sculptures.  We have gone every year since I've lived here (2009) and each time I froze!!!  We went on Saturday and I thought we were going too late in the day because the sun had been out all morning but was disappearing on us.  As soon as we got to Frankenmuth, the sun came out and stayed out.  Yay!  There were some great sculptures this year and I took lots of pictures, here are just a few.

This one was titled 'Windblown' ~ 
We were commenting on how our hair never looks this 'calm' in the wind.



 This Sailboat had so much great detail, 
difficult to capture in a photograph...


 I thought they did a good job on the little Planter's Peanut Guy


 This Dolphin was one of my favorites!



Star Wars...


This one also had a lot of great detail... 
Couldn't get the whole piece in the picture though

Which one is your favorite?

The Snow Has Arrived!

Well, last week was a snowy week... We had our first snowfall.  Our dog, Izzie, LOVED that the snow was back, she looked at us with BIG happy eyes and ran and pounced and even rolled in the snow.  However, our daughter's dog, Emmi, didn't like it at all!  She's so funny, because you have to shovel a path and drag her outside, but as soon as she sees a squirrel she runs through the snow like it's summertime grass!!  LOL!  It rained over the weekend and the snow is mostly gone now, but I thought I'd share a few pictures of our first snowfall of this season.

Our front yard, I took the picture as I was leaving for work.
The roads were very slippery!

Our back yard looking toward the creek...

This picture isn't very good, taken at night, but Izzie was having a 
GREAT time!!  You can see her on the left...
