typical day at the office.

Charm playin' at the park.

lazy day in minneapolis.

Today, feelin' like 51 degrees & cloudy. Just listenin' to jazz, laying on the bed (even though that's not allowed). Wonderin' why sometimes things don't feel as they should. Somebody, throw me a bone!

Mississipi River adventure.

Charm has been dipping her toes in the Mississippi River all summer. Each time we take a hike by the river, she's more curious as she watches the other dogs swim, fetch, and frolic.

Here she is, running full speed to mid-stream... then thinks twice! Just as she was about to leap over the water the video camera froze. Stay tuned for more...

cuddle time.

just messin' around.

visions of rawhide & squirrels in her dreams...

the look.

the pondering dog.

charm, us, and our first self portrait.

lucky charm.

Meet Charm, the new 4-legged addition to our MPLS home. She was rescued by Best Friends Animal Society after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina - they found her running the streets of New Orleans in search of a safe haven. And, she was found! Francis and Silva have taken wonderful, unconditional care of her (thank you!), and now we are absolutely thrilled and lucky to have her with us.

Named after Charmaine Neville, we like to play "with you in mind" by the jazz great. It's fast becoming her theme song.
