My 8 Photos of Happiness

I was nominated to participate in the 8 Photos of Happiness tag that has been storming the internet.  I'd like to thank my good friend Jenna from Love Is Being Owned By A Husky for nominating me to participate in this fun initiative!  Jenna wasn't the only blogger to nominate me for this tag, but her's was the first nomination. 

I've had so many moments of sheer happiness thanks to my dogs. It wasn't easy to choose just 8 photos of happiness from the millions of photos I've taken over the last few years!  Having pets in my life makes me so happy, and the few years I wasn't able to have a pet created a big void.  I hope I'm never without a pet again for the rest of my life!



It took a long time to convince my husband to finally let me have a dog.  As you can see from this photo, once Icy came along he fully embraced life with his very first dog! 



When Icy was a puppy, I remember the day she finally "got" the Leave It! command.  We were finally able to all watch TV together peacefully, without Icy chasing Maggie.  Maggie has since gone to the Rainbow Bridge to wait for us.  We Love & Miss You, Maggs!


Volunteering at the county animal shelter and fostering dogs in need make me really happy. Fostering saves lives, and that makes everyone happy!




Adopting sweet Phoebe from the shelter I volunteer at and watching her and Icy become friends was joyful.  I was so happy they hit it off, and grew to love each other like sisters! With Icy being the Pack Leader and boss, of course LOL!


Road trips with the dogs!  We love traveling cross country to visit family and taking fun vacations with our dogs, especially where there are lots of beautiful hiking trails.


Hiking is our favorite activity to do with our dogs. I love Icy's wild, adventurous side on the trails, and Phoebe's fierce determination to keep up with us on our mountain hikes!


This was fun!
