It's near the end of July and the heat index has been over 100 degrees for weeks now. The weather has been a bit depressing lately and has us thinking back to happier and cooler times.

"Welcome home to the Happy Haus" is the greeting I used to receive from Gary when we arrived home from work each day. Gary and I brought our daughter Natalie home from China in November 2011 to live with us in our cozy cottage. In October of 2013, we unexpectedly lost Gary, our dear husband, father and friend.
Our family includes our two sweet Newfoundland dogs, Katie and Louie. Newfoundlands are working dogs, so we make sure our two always have a job to do. Katie and Louie are both certified therapy dogs and bring lots of joy to people who are in need of some Newfie love. They have also competed in Rally Obedience. Katie has earned a Rally Advanced title and Louie has earned a Rally Excellent title. In keeping with Newf tradition, Katie has become a proficient draft dog while Louie prefers practicing water rescue whenever he gets an opportunity. They are also both protectors of their little sister, Natalie.

LOVE the sleeping on the step pictures. Adorable.
I can't wait till it cools off a bit... and the mosquito population declines.
Brrr! It has cooled off up here today in NY...yay. I hopes that you gets some relief from the heat soon too. :)
Woofs and Licks,

Oh thank you for the snow pictures. Anything that reminds us of the cold really helps! :)
