My adorable 4-year-old maltepoo,
Lil' Miss Chelsey,
in a photogenic mood
sporting her pretty pastel pink sweater...

Early October 2012:

Well, not her "pets" pursue,
although these Wild Ducks are ever-present
swimming in my sister in law's backyard pond...

My bother in law and his wife also raise two
precious rabbits...Awe...

Our Sunday journey on the water in Juneau, Alaska...

Miss Chelsey overseeing Max
getting the fishing gear in the water...

Miss Chelsey
doing what she loves best...

Yep, Miss Chelsey got up-close-and-personal
overseeing the landing of our King Salmon too...

A grumpy Miss Chelsey did not appreciate
being awakened from her much-needed nap
by all the commotion on the fly bridge...

Fun Day Trout Fishing

in the northern area

of Juneau, Alaska...

Lil' Miss Chelsey
(our 4-year-old, 10-lb. maltepoo)
experiencing her first skiff ride heading out
trout fishing with us...

Lil' Miss Chelsey
seeking out shoreline critters...

Max in his glory trout fishing
with Chelsey keeping a close eye
on the bobber...

Lil' Miss Chelsey
watching Max come back
from trying his luck fishing from the point...

She hiked most of the way up the mountain,
and ALL the way down ~ What a trooper she was!

June 23, 2012:

Chelsey ♥ giving me her typical stare down,

she knows generally it's 4:30 p.m. when I'm off work,

but it's 5:00 p.m.!

She wants to go play in the 80+ degree sunshine, now...

June 21, 2012:

Miss Chelsey's not feeling up to par today

and needed quite a bit of extra loving...

June 13, 2012:

Our loving family pets...

Our Lil' Miss Chelsey is soooo sleepy
(she turned 4 years young last week)...

My son with Baxter - his girlfriends mother's
7- or 8-year-young
American Eskimo breed...

My son and his girlfriend's kitty cats:
Stella, Zoe, Simba, and John...

Zoe came out of hiding,
and is looking at Stella rather seriously...

Awe ~ Simba...

My little Miss Chelsey waking up from a nap

while basking in the sun

with her favorite stuffed animal this morning.

I can't believe she'll already be

4-years-old next month...

March 26, 2012:

My son and Brittany's newest addition today to their family.

A handsome kitty named Simba.

He's an 8-year-old boy with quite the pleasant disposition, they say...

My son and Brittany's kitty cats,

John the large one, and Stella the small one

who are being somewhat mischievous...

talking on the telephone this morning)...

Awe ~ What a darling...

My Sister's late Lab named Rosie
who unexpectedly was struck by a vehicle and died rather recently.
May ♥Rosie♥ forever RIP...

My Sister's cat named Sugar Baby...

Now this is one kitty cat with an attitude!
Just look at her silly expression...

What a gentle soul he is...

My Son JR and his girlfriend Brittany found this homeless kitty
while on a walk,
so cute little Zoe is now the newest addition to their family...

Our lil' Miss Chelsey was happy to finally have us home
from our long day of fishing...
she was watching my husband Max prepare two King Salmon
to put them on ice...

May 28, 2011:

Post our family boat ride aboard the F/V Chelsey...
We drove my vehicle from Auke Bay to Harris Harbor to drop Max
off to get his pickup downtown, and this is how he passes off the
pup Chelsey to me while still sporting her life vest;
he said, "It's just like carrying a suitcase!" ~
Chelsey was appropriately named after our boat -
she's in heaven and
right-at-home while aboard the F/V Chelsey cruising
with Dad, Mom, and Grandpa Ralph!

March 26, 2011:

How nice it is to meet JR and Brittany's two newest family pets...
(They retained their given names by their previous owners.)
John's previous owner recently passed away.
John weighs 10-12 lbs. and is 4 years old; what a handsome boy.
Stella is quite a petite little girl, and is 2 years old.
Awe...these pets will definately be provided an abundance of love...

It looks as though John is beginning to feel 'right at home'...

They say, "A picture tells a thousand stories"...
as does this one by their mere expressions...

March 23, 2011:

May Scooter (my son JR and his girlfriend Brittany's kitty cat)
who was only several months old...
"Rest In Peace"...
He had a rare and fatal virus,
so they were forced to put him to rest a couple of days thereafter...
