Catch up

It's been over a week since I last posted, so here's a quick catch up on what we've been up to.  We had more snow again at the end of last week, so on Saturday went for a great snowy walk with Mum and Dad.  We were all quite used to the cold weather, but poor Dad wasn't as he had been in Dublin all week and he said it had been quite warm there.
By Monday all the snow had gone (Dad had too, back to work) so our walk turned into a muddy one which meant being washed when we got home.  Thankfully, Mum made the hosepipe spray warm water on us.
Yesterday Mum decided that the back garden was looking tatty and needed a tidy up.  Murphy and I were made to help, although Mum didn't seem to think my re-organising the bag with all the dead stuff it helping.  When we'd finished, Murphy took the opportunity to have a sit down in his favourite place - on the deck in the sunshine.


So that's us all up to date.  This morning Mum left us at home with Dad while she went to do some shopping.  She doesn't usually enjoy going shopping, but today she was quite keen because she was going to try a new supermarket that has opened in our nearest town.  When she came home, she got really excited about putting some washing outside to dry in the sunshine.  It never ceases to amaze me just how easily pleased Mums are sometimes!
