These sweet babies are officially 6 weeks old! This week the puppies have had to adjust to a lot less one-on-one time with their momma, but Misty was ready. Whether they know it or not, they are ready to move on to their next phase too. Several afternoons this week, we spent outdoors. The puppies […]

Misty’s Fall Litter- 1st + 2nd Week

This small town of Blowing Rock seems like it fell out of a Hallmark movie. The first thing you will notice while driving through the town in the summer is the impressive array of flowers and pretty stone buildings. The town seems to burst with blossoms and greenery! Everyone seems to take it slow and […]

We Have Ducks

Old Salem is one of the many wonderful places in North Carolina that transports you back in time. I love living in North Carolina! Growing up we lived in the mid-west, on the west coast, on the east coast, visited up north, and the deep south. No state in my opinion can hold a candle […]

Now We Are Six (Weeks)

Chunky babies are the cutest, at least in our opinion. Misty’s babies went from not seeing and hearing to all of the sudden, they are awkwardly chasing each other around their stall and interacting with each other. It has been so sweet to watch!
