It's Still Summer Here!


Here in the land of eternal summer, it's pretty much always a beach day. Lucky for us, it's been close to perfect weather recently with very calm seas. This is our usual beach which is only a 10 minute walk from our house.

Testing the water


The water was deliciously warm after the very hot weather we've had and even Lilly was quick to get right in. They strolled along the shore for a while cooling themselves off while I looked for sea glass.

Roxy tried fishing


...and pointing


She's fascinated by fish! I think she might actually catch one some day.

Then they started playing around with each other and Lilly had to have a massive shake to get the water out of her face. So silly!







Lilly had to do a little posing. She thinks she's such a princess!

Is this my good side?


Did you remember the sunscreen?


It was starting to get seriously hot and the dogs were looking tired so we decided to head home. I just want to mention sunscreen again for all you white and light colored dogs. It's very important to use it! We use the kids waterproof kind and rub it all over Lilly's face and neck when we're out in the sun for any length of time.

Heading up the hill towards our house. Aren't the colors of the houses beautiful?!





Almost home! Time for a quick rinse to get the salt water off and then....a SIESTA!

**for those of you wondering about sea glass, here's what we got on that short outing.

Bad Mommy



Ouchie, sunburn!
Remember the sunscreen this summer. Even dogs can get sunburned. Here's Lilly after a morning at the beach when I forgot the sunscreen. BAD MOMMY!
Any light colored dog can get a sunburn. Most susceptible places are the nose and head. However, if you have a white dog, it's probably best not to be out during the midday sun. I use kids waterproof sunscreen and apply it(when I remember!!) before leaving the house. Lilly is pretty good about it and doesn't really bother once it's rubbed in. If you're out for a long time, you may have to reapply, just like with kids.
Enjoy your summer fun!
