In the past month Samantha has added new teeth. She now has 4 lower teeth and 1 front upper tooth is half way down with the one next to it slowly emerging.

Check out the pearly whites:

Samantha loves the Vespa! Its fun to ride on AND

RIP Windy Robinson

My parent's cocker spaniel had to be put to sleep today. Thirteen years ago little Windy was roaming around the golf course homeless and my dad took her home after no one claimed her.

Todd and I loved Windy. We would have her up to Santa Barbara all the time.

Windy beat the odds several times including attacks by a coyote, a rottweiler, raccoons, bee stings, and even was dog-napped one Christmas.

Despite losing her hearing a couple years ago, Windy remained pretty darn spry. She loved golf cart rides and chasing seagulls on the beach. She even was the dog of the week in Santa Barbara - http://www.edhat.com/site/tidbit.cfm?id=1601 .

We will miss her. Here are a few of my favorite shots of Windy:
