We made it!  Finally, the first day of spring!  What a long winter it was, indeed.  The temperatures that we endured were brutal to say the least and now, while there may still be some chilly temps, we know that they will not lost long.

I am so looking forward to nice weather.  Being able to walk outside and not gasp that big breath of warm are before you open the door!  I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my tulips, but to date, there have been no sign of them.  The robins are back and that is good and the roads to my home are falling apart.  A terrible thing to deal with but a sure sign that the frost is leaving the ground!

Today is not only the first day of spring but it is the first day of SPRING BREAK!  Barkfest 2015 is underway.  I think Byron is happy that he took a couple hunting trips earlier in the year as he now knows that the next 10 days will be filled with nothing but DOGS!  Our hearts are always happy knowing that so many people entrust their furry family members to our care!  We are happy to have back some of our old faithfuls as well as some new faces.  God has and continues to bless us with this business.  If you would all say a little prayer that we make it through the next 10 days, unscathed, that would be greatly appreciated.  It is a bit difficult for me to believe that this is our 18th spring break.  I said I would give this business 10 years and I've nearly doubled that.

Happy Spring everyone!
