house and doggy sitting

Lilja and I are staying at Caroline and Jeff's house to dog sit their four dogs for the next two weeks. It is a beautiful ranch and besides the house being kid-friendly (they have a 5 year old) the dogs are wonderful. Every day we take them for walks.. down the river, in a subdivision across the road, or I run one of the younger dogs for 4 miles every thursday.. Today we just walked in their fields.. it was not too muddy and the sun was out. Looking at the photos though it appears Lilja is cold.. but believe me this girl is NEVER cold.. but that little red nose is definitely cute

she is such a trooper walking the dogs.. Loves to "Go get" Amos..

Caught her eating ice.. where she found it... not sure:) notice the sideways look..

That is the smile after I asked her where she got the ice from.. she dropped the ice and gave THE smile.. Oh yes, she works it!!

Little red nose, Luckily her coat is so nice and warm. yes, still one of her coats from last year.. I guess she has not grown that much..
