And by "all," I do mean all!
Meet Rover. She (yes, she) loves walking in Arana Gulch and fetching sticks (with a little help from Nia, that is, who fills in the barks and the pants, too!).
It was a beautiful day to drag a stuffed animal through the Gulch. She got a little dirty. :)
Quick side story on the dress Nia is wearing: A few days ago, we decided to walk to McKenzie's for a chocolate treat, only to find the store closed thru the 9th. Instead of turning back, though, we decided to go around the corner to Staff of Life. In doing that, we passed a little yarn shop I'd never noticed before (Chics with Sticks) and decided to go in (I've suddenly decided I need to learn to crochet this year so I can make Nia a scarf). While in the store, the owner looked Nia up and down and they had this conversation:
Woman: "Are you about 3?"
Nia: "No, I'm 3 and a half."
Woman: "And do you like dresses?"
Nia: "Yes!"
Then the woman goes out the backdoor briefly and returns with this amazing, over-the-top party dress and gives it to Nia. Her granddaughter had outgrown it. Totally made Nia's day and I was pretty happy to.
