PORTRAITS OF LOLA.... random pictures of Lola doing what she's best at.... posing









































PATRICK AND ASHLEY GO TO NANTUCKET


While Lola's grandparents were keeping her busy in the water, Patrick and Ashley took the opportunity to escape for a quick getaway to Nantucket.



It was the perfect time to be there.... No tourists, RESTAURANT WEEK, and flowers everywhere the eye could see...



Between smelling the flowers, and eating luxurious food, we found time to taste the rest of what Nantucket had to offer with a visit to their local Brewery/Distillery/Winery....

even taking time to visit with the local brewery dogs....

Of course, no trip to Nantucket would be complete without a trip to 'Sconset Beach, the place where we got engaged!


In true Pat & Ashley fashion, no trip is complete without getting up to watch the sunrise at least once!

LOLA'S TRIP TO SEE THE GRANDPARENTS


Ever since meeting her grandparents and visiting their homes in the winter, Lola has been begging us to take her back during what she calls 'swimming months'. We had told her that she could swim in pools, rivers, lakes, see new animals, and maybe even catch a boat ride or two. This was going to be the trip of the summer!


FIRST STOP: FREDERICKSBURG!!!

Although Lola showed some initial hesitation with climbing down the steps into the pool, she quickly got over her fears and got right in. Nothing will keep her from the water!!!

Ashley had a little heart to heart with Lola and explained that it was 'okay if she was scared of the steps', and that if she really didn't enjoy climbing down them, then she should find another way to get into the water....


Lola decided that there was really only 1 other option...... TIME TO JUMP IN!

Of course swimming was not limited to just the pool. Lola couldn't wait to get her paws back in some sand and taste some 'real water'





NEXT STOP: OWASCO LAKE!

After all the fun Lola had in Fredericksburg, she couldn't wait to see what waited for her in Auburn.

Lola wasted no time getting herself down to the water and taking a quick hop into the cold water.


Lola made sure that her time was spent not only swimming, but taking advantage of all aspects of lake life.... including...

BOATING
 
 

DUCK WATCHING

PLAYING LIFEGUARD


VISITING THE LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

PLAYING IN THE GRASS

Of course, at the end of the day, there's always time for cuddling and puppy-kisses...
