Disclaimer: It’s really really really cold outside and I’m a total weather wuss, so these photos are in no way shape or form recent. In fact, I think most of them are from Spring/Summer 2014. My general rule for life is once I can see my breath I only go […]

This is Squeekerz, a Jack Russell Chihuahua mix. He has owned us for about eleven years now. We love him dearly. We’re not quite sure how he feels about us. We think he likes us, but most of the time we think he just tolerates us because we provide food […]
