Rugged Up for a Winter’s Walk

2008-6-15_willow

It was cold on Sunday but both my gals wanted to get outside and my wife was keen to have them out of her hair for a little while so she could get some work done. We decided to take our dog Mojo out for a walk. Willow decided she needed to take her own ‘dog’ Ginger out too. We rugged up in scarves and hats. Just outside the front door there’s some kind of mutant iris plant that grows like a weed on steroids. It’s blooming in the middle of winter - a real floral overachiever. Willow walks out of the front door and immediately heads for the iris and picks a few choice blooms. Of course I had my camera handy and caught her in the act.

My other gal, Juniper, had Mojo and headed up the steep driveway to the road. After snapping a few at Willow and the flowers, I turned and caught Juniper with Mojo. We had a great walk and a few more images from it can be found below. Hope you’ve had a great one too!

    Aww… nothing like fun time with the kids. Precious shots of precious girls. And you’re one thoughtful hubby too, I appreciate it as well when the hubby takes our son to the office so I could grab a few hours of peace and quiet. ;-) Happy Father’s Day to you! :-)

    @Lynn - Thanks!

    @Just Another Day - Innocent by look, demonic by nature ;-) . Living Down Under means we have opposite seasons to most people. In Australia, it’s wintertime now.
