Honestly, I've been working on a batch of Christmas cards, but none are finished yet. Then the sun came out as brilliant and warm as summertime, so Sophie and I have been outside as much as possible. We're eager to show her all the fun places, but in the meantime Sophie has a wonderland in her own back yard.
I've resumed working on the trails I built in our woods when Wally was a puppy, and Sophie is having the time of her life "helping" me. Just like Wally and LuLu (and me) she loves the woods -- so many good earthy smells, so many leaves and sticks and dirt that's okay to dig in.
After her good time in the woods Sophie had lunch and fell fast asleep in the sun coming through the kitchen patio door. She didn't even see the visitor looking in at us. A quick phone pic through the window...
This guy is a little too big for a puppy's playmate, but Sophie has several fully vaccinated doggy friends to socialize with, so she's happy.
I hope this finds you happy, too.

LOVE seeing pics of Sophie ... she brings a smile to my face. I can see how much she has grown in just a short time. :) What a fun project for you and Sophie to clear the paths together. And what a beautiful visitor. Hope you are well, Leslie. xx
Oh she is a cutie, I'd be cuddling her all the time. (Got back Friday from several weeks in Utah visiting my family. Had 500+ blog visits to make, too overwhelming so I am starting over with a clean slate of visits today!)
this little post has made me happy. Thank you. How wonderful that you are having such fun with Sophie and what a special visitor you had too. I am glad you are enjoying the fine weather. It is definitely best to be outside xx
She is the perfect companion, Leslie - especially out in the yard! I wonder if she will remain a lighter color? Ours did, though he was more golden than puppy-white as he matured. Thanks for sharing your photos! Sending hugs,

Yay, it's Sophie day!! Just love your photos of her and would love to walk those trails with the two of you! I'm betting that dude was just waiting for you and Sophie to get in the house so he could come out from hiding!

How fun for Sophie and for you! I love the smell of the woods, especially in fall. What a fun visitor to your yard.
HI Leslie, I'm so happy for you. Having a little furry friend around the house must be so much fun. Thanks for sharing all the photos of Sophie she is just adorable. That's a perfect name for her too!! -Happy Halloween
Looks like sweet little Sophie might just have a secret admirer! She's adorable, Leslie!
She looks such a cutie and must be having the time of her life exploring ♥
Aaahh..the perfect wooded area a few steps away from the kitchen door....so fun for everyone, including the little buck:-) TFS the adorable photos of Sophie, Leslie:-) Denny just got the gutters cleaned out in time for our next rainy days:-) A good chance to get back to your Christmas cards:-) Love and Hugs...Nancy
Your woods look like Muir Woods near San Fran with all the ferns. What a treat for beautiful Sofie and her Humans! Love the deer! What a perfect day! ♥️
Sophie is adorable and I'm so happy for you. And also I'm in awe of your back yard!! So glad you share it with all of us.
I'm so happy Sophie and you are settling in! Beginning a love affair takes lots of effort on each side and looks like you two definitely have gotten the hang of it! She is just so adorable and I'm so happy you have found her and are beginning to love again!
Oh I bet she was just thrilled to go outside and explore the yard. Good thing she wasn't out there when your visitor came, I know our little puppy peanut chased after one and we were so hoping she wouldn't get hurt.
I bet she has enjoyed visiting playmates too :) Enjoy the sun when you get it, we woke up to 27 degrees this morning, just not right ;(
She is so sweet! I'm glad that she is taking to all the fun places that Wally and LuLu shared. What a back yard you have to share with her. I"m sure she'll love spending time exploring every bit of it. Sweet visitor you had there.
Thanks so much for sharing these adorable pictures of Sophie! It looks like she is having a blast exploring. We have had several deer pass bye but not a buck. Enjoy your little friend. I just love her name.
What a fun little furry ball of love Leslie! So sweet!
Could she be any sweeter??! Those eyes just melt my heart Leslie...so, SO CUTE!! Will she turn more of a golden color as she gets bigger or stay the softer white color? I'm so glad the weather has cooperated so you and Sophie can play outside together...so therapeutic for both of you! Sweet, sweet post!! Hugs. :0)
Sophie is so adorable and I'm so happy to hear that she's bringing you so much joy and filling your heart with love once again. Sounds like you're bonding and making beautiful memories already. Love the photo's of your dear little one and the deer!
So adorable. She is fitting right in, for sure! Glad you had some warm, sunny weather.
What a delight Sophie is! I am enjoying all the pics.
What cuteness! Love Sophie and the Deer. It's always a pleasure to see your posts.
As much as I can't wait to see your new cards your working on, I am thrilled to see new photos of Sophie. I just want to give her a big hug! She seems to have have fit right into your home, making it her space. And the deer, amazing they come so close to you. Have a wonderful day!
Sophie is one beautiful girlie, her eyes say it all, look right into the soul!! Love seeing her pictures and I can imagine she is keeping you on your toes as most pups love to do. What a beautiful picture of the buck too, in the 29 years we have lived n this home I have only see ONE buck, 100s and 100s of doe and fawns but rarely a buck!!
It's beautiful to picture you and Sophie enjoying the outdoors on a lovely day. Keep those pics coming! Amazing to see the deer so close up. We have deer come by all the time - we counted a herd of 25 coming through one evening!
