Winter Sun

Barbara on July 26th, 2008

Yes, we had winter sun yesterday. I rugged up and braved the cold so I can try to get a photo of my three boys together.  Lets just say it was um . . . . . . . amusing LOL.  After about an hour of jumping around, barking, bouncing, running, sniffing, laying down, getting up again, exploring, more sniffing, digging, scratching, tail wagging and rolling I managed to get them into the same area.

Once we were there, it took another half an hour trying to get them all to sit . . . . . .

Murphy (who has no patience at all) would not sit still.  He would come and sit so nicely but as soon as I would call Spencer or Grifffin, he would get up as if to say “what about me, I’m right here remember!” and would then run off to fetch his ball to play catch LOL.

Spencer (who is much more placid but was also getting a bit fed up of coming and sitting and then having to wait for Murphy to stop bouncing and trying to get all the attention) ended up just walking off.  I called him back, he turned and looked and kept walking.  He is like a grumpy old man sometimes LOL.

Griffin, he didn’t have a care in the world - he was too busy exploring the backyard (again) and was happy to just run around sniffing and jumping and barking at the tractors over the back fence and tripping Murphy over while Murphy hunted for his ball to play catch.

I eventually threw all of Griffin’s puppy biscuits (that I always have in my pocket for training) on the ground and told them to fetch.  It was like a frenzy of seagulls trying to get chips - I was nearly wetting myself trying to take the photos.

Anyway, these are the best I could get for the time being . . . . . Hope you enjoy them :)

  2. Flock of seagulls…that’s exactly what it’s like. I’m sure eventually they’ll all get over the excitement and sit together for a family portrait. Maybe. LOL

    Spencer I do believe I can see a glimmer of a smile this time. Not as grumpy an old man as you would have us believe eh? :P

  4. Gorgeous Barbara, Griffin looks so tiny next to the big boys, it’s great they all so happy together.

  5. They’re great photos :) Griffin does look tiny next to Spencer and Murphy (well, he *is*!) … I wonder if he thinks he’s as big as them though.

  6. We always had Golden Retrievers when I was younger… such beatiful animals. Your babies are fabulous :)
