Arboretum and Lake Johnson

Yesterday was alright temperature wise but it was nice that the sun was out so we headed to the arboretum near State's campus to look around. Again, not too much was in bloom but it was still nice and there were no college kids laying around in their bathing suits this time. There were some PJ's though!

Something that was cool about the arboretum is we were able to finallly identify some of the other plants in our yard. This being one of them:
They also had these cool plants outside with really neat textures and some of them were huge!
Andy got a new hairdoo while we were out there, too!
There were some beautiful trees, some I hope maybe one day we can plant :o)

I also got a chance to play with this cool feature on my camera. It is a face self-timer so you can set it down somewhere and it won't start counting down until you look straight on at the camera. Pretty cool.

The rest of these are just fun:

When we got home we decided it was still nice outside so we grabbed Allie got her in the car and headed to Lake Johnson. It had been so long since we'ld been there! It was pretty and it was fun being able to walk Allie around there and letting her make some new friends. One guy even thought she could be a show dog because her spots are spaced just right! If only she weren't fixed and well, she knew how to listen.

Andy looks so happy in these pictures! We tried to get Allie to go down to the water and play with the ducks. Suprisingly enough, she seemed to care less.

We went the whole 3 miles around the lake. I gotta say, I was proud of myself. Allie sounded like a little steam train so we decided we'ld be nice and so we went to REI later that day and got her this fabricy bowl that rolls up into itself and you can zip it up! It even has a carribeaner on it so you can hook it to your pants or what not. So now, nect time we decide to walk three miles our poor dog can have some water on the way :o)
