no melting for this little pricess...

She swam! She swam!!

My whole goal for this past weekend was to get Frankie into the water so she could try swimming. I didn't doubt she could do it. She didn't seem to love it...I'm hoping that changes over time. After all, she's a spaniel...and they love water!

been a long time...

Frankie's blog hasn't been updated since July 1st!! Just to let everyone know...she's been busy!

We've been to the Murschel's (twice) where she got to play with Buddy and Molly.

She spent 4th of July up at the lake, at Aunt Jane's and Uncle Steves. By the way... she's indifferent to fireworks.

Last weekend was the big Rodeo weekend in Isanti. We spent the night at the Murschel's and she somehow was able to claim an entire full size couch while a 6+foot man had to sleep on a love seat - HA! (good job Frankie!)

This weekend we're at the cabin in Buffalo City, WI...visiting Grandma and Grandpa. She went on a pontoon ride, met a sunfish, and eat some sunflower seeds and drank some beer. She's sleeping right now....she's one tired pup!

Sugar and Spice.......

Yesterday, Frankie got her first haircut. Jeff dropped her off at 9:00 with the groomer and picked her back up at 11:30. Apparently, she is a very unruly customer! HA! When Jeff picked her up, he asked how she did, and they basically told him she was the worst of the worst. SHE’S A PUPPY!!! And you just brought a scary sounding clipper close to her body and head. I would be a little unruly too! They told me she would be getting a “puppy cut” her first time in. That meant she would get her nails trimmed, ears cleaned, and maybe a little trim up to get her use to the idea. Oh, and it was be ½ the normal cost. Well…..she came home with a full cut, and it cost $50!!!! So I’m glad she was a brat – serves them right! However, we will have to work on her behavior so it gets easier – for whoever cuts her hair.

At any rate, she looks adorable! She’s all trimmed up and even came home with little pink bows in her hair. Ah…our little princess.
