This week’s Saturday Photo Hunt theme is ‘Sweet‘.

Now, as any Mother knows, there is just nothing sweeter than your own children! This was taken about eight years ago. Mikayla had just started Kindergarten, and this was Kristanna’s first day of preschool. It is one of my most favourite photos of them. […]

… that the best way to bath a Great Dane doesn’t involve a bath at all. It involves quick thinking and taking advantage of the situation presented to you.
