Connecticut Weekend - Part 2

This post brings us to Sista and BIL's beautiful home and grounds.  It was very warm in Connecticut that weekend and all the flowers were in bloom.

After the koi finally made it home from their adventure, they seemed very happy in their new surroundings.

Pretty little niches all over Sista's property.

Sista and BIL made this to denote how many miles apart they are from friends and family.

Darling potting bench outside the garage.

Herbs and succulents galore!

This charming deck sits right outside the kitchen. Over the course of my visit, Sista and I enjoyed our morning coffee and a few glasses of wine here.

This is Max, senior member of Sista's babies.

This is Wiley - the newest addition.  She is a over active golden doodle, weighing in at about 60 lbs. but in her mind she is a 5 lb. lap dog.  She is an obedience school flunkie drop-out.   

Sista says that Wiley's expulsion leave of absence was mutual.  The school obviously couldn't appreciate Wiley's unbridled exuberance.  The school has no comment.

Evidence of how well Wiley did in her dog obedience class.  Looks like Sista may need to find another school for a refresher course!

This is George Clooney, the middle child. 

Anybody want to guess how George Clooney got his name?

Hope your day is full of smiles!

Notice the muddy paws on Wiley.  She is a little too big for the ottoman, but she doesn't care, her back paws are firmly planted on the muddy ground.
