5 1/2 weeks old and SO much fun!

The puppies are truly at such a cute age (this doesn't stop) they wag their tails at your voice and lick your face to no end!  They chase the boys around in the garage and house and snuggle in your arms and fall asleep.

Here are some pics off my phone from our past few days, my big camera is having difficulties holding a charge so I haven't been able to take pictures off of it and my phone is so full I keep having to delete to take new pictures :(.  I have a new battery on the way! 

More puppy pics to come soon!

Luke had a friend over today and I think they could have spent the entire day with the pups!

The big dogs are loving it and the puppies are staying warm in the garage or on someones lap in the house!

4 weeks old!

The puppies turned 4 weeks old yesterday!  Time is going by so fast with them.  They got their new big puppy pen Saturday and have started eating soaked puppy food and are loving it!  Today they got new toys (the big dogs stole a couple and Drake already got the squeaker out of one!)

 Below:  Our house sits up on a little hill which means we have a great sledding driveway for our kiddos!  We took the big dogs out and played last night.


 Above:  Its getting harder to get a pic with all 4!

 Play time!

About my family and I.....

Some information about my family and I:

I married my husband 10 years ago this past September.  In those 10 years we have welcomed 3 babies of our own.  I have been blessed with being able to be a stay at home mom and I love every second of it!  Our kiddos are 9, 7 and almost 2.  We have lived mostly in Central Oregon but did take a wild venture to Texas and Gresham, OR. for approx. 3 years before returning to our real home.  We live on 10 acres with the extra special bonus of living next to my parents on 50 acres and on the other side of my parents with 20 acres lives my sister, her husband and my nephew and niece.  My kids have enjoyed growing up around their grandparents cows and horses.  We have raised pigs, chickens and of course beautiful golden retrievers.  We welcomed our first golden into our home when our first child was 10 months old and she has been such a perfect fit for us.  Our next 3 goldens were welcomed approx 3 years ago and we have been quite a busy family since! This litter with Macy is her second and our 6th total litter, it gets more fun with each litter!   
We raise family golden retrievers and are in search for wonderful families for our little goldens.   
Below are my human babies: Luke, Calisee (Game of Thrones) and Dylan, 
you will see a lot of them on this blog!

Friday night snuggles!

Today we took the kids to an animated dinosaur event at the fair grounds.  Part of the event was outside and it was cold!  We came home and had hot chocolate and puppy snuggles!  What a great Friday!
