We had such a nice weekend! The Dadz had an extra day off, so we got to spend a quiet family Sunday together. I got to spend some time just sitting on the couch with Luke and my coffee in the morning. Luke absolutely loves when I do that after he has his breakfast, and I enjoy a chance to ease into my day a bit more slowly than usual.
The Dadz and I made blueberry pancakes and bacon for breakfast, then we both took Luke on a walk. That was a special treat for all of us. Luke loves having us both, and I love getting a break from holding the leash! Plus, when Dadz walks with us, we go further, and onto some trails that Luke and I don’t normally travel when it’s just the two of us.
The snow is starting to pack down some which makes for easier walking, especially for Luke. I wore my snowshoes which helped in some of the softer areas. It was a chilly morning, but the sun was in and out so it was comfortable.
After our walk, we spent the rest of the day mostly relaxing. I “puttered” around the house while the Dadz and Luke had a nice nap. I spent some time with Samantha and watching the birds doing their own puttering and enjoying the increasing areas of bare ground outside. By the way, dictionary.com defines “puttering” as “to busy or occupy oneself in a leisurely, casual, or ineffective manner”. I think that describes our day perfectly.
It really is true that “life’s simple pleasures are the best”.

that’s a great way to spend the day!
If only every day could be so relaxing and wonderful! 🙂
What a wonderful day.
Maybe not as much fun as playing with puppies like you, but still. 🙂
So great, Jan, that you had a lovely weekend! Sunday sounds so relaxing and you all got some good exercise too, together, the best! Simple pleasures for sure are the best!
It’s not often the three of us get to go together with our crazy schedules. 🙂
That does sound like a nice day- especially the pancakes and bacon. 🙂
Hubby rarely wants to eat breakfast, and I won’t cook anything big just for myself, so it was definitely a special treat!
What a fun day! All our snow is just about gone now…and the temps are going up. We think spring is coming!
While our temperatures have still been pretty cool, other than a day here and there, the sunshine really makes such a huge difference. So it really is starting to feel like spring!
Aww, that last photo really made me smile. Kisses are extra good especially when ‘deer cookies’ are avoided. ☺️
Avoiding the deer treats is definitely a priority if there are going to be kisses!! 🙂
It sure looks like a fun, fun time Luke!
He does enjoy getting all the attention from both of us at once! 🙂
yes… that was super awwww! and what a fabulous sunday… the simple things are simply the best ;O)
That’s the truth!!
Blueberry pancakes, relaxation, the perfect pup, down time … sounds like the perfect weekend!
It seems we rarely get all that at once lately, so it’s definitely to be enjoyed thoroughly!
I think days with nothing to do are the very best days.
Agreed!!
Sounds like a perfect Sunday, the day of rest!
Every Sunday should be that way!
What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday!!
We should make it a habit, but the Dadz is usually working.
What a lovely day! Thanks for sharing the pictures with us … sweet!
So glad you enjoyed them!!
Glad you had a nice weekend. Looks like you still have a lot of snow🐱👓🐱👓☹☹😢😢☹☹🐱👓🐱👓
Oh yes, we still have plenty!! Though it’s starting to slowly melt finally!! 🙂
You had an awesome puttering Sunday, Luke!
Now to get Mom and Dad to do that more often!!
Love, Luke
That is one handsome canine.
Thank you so much!! ♥
