Our granddaughter, Maven, lights up our life!  There is a smile on her face 90% of the time...and if one isn't there - it only takes a wink to get one started!  It's hard for her to say "Grandmacita" yet (which I would like to be affectionately know as!)....but she can say puppy and dog!  She is shown here with a Leia-Royal Labradoodle puppy.

Our daughter, Stefanie and her husband, Buck, blessed Joe & I with our first grandchild on May 18th, 2009.  Maven Elaine Price is a sweet, happy baby. We are all enjoying her so much!  This beautiful photograph, along with many others, was taken by the amazing photographer Jennifer Wycoff!

Joe and I took Sorsha on a weekend trip with us.  Here we are at Shell Beach. 

Wine tasting in Solvang!  Solvang is one of the best places to go hang out.  There are a zillion shops and of course lots of wine tasting!  Sorsha had a great time with us.

Our friends, Brad & Bonnie and their children, came to visit us from Wisconsin.  We had a lot of fun catching up with them.  They were a lot of help in the puppy loving department.Pictured are Brooks, Brayden, Bonnie, Braxton and Brogen with labradoodles and goldendoodles.

Joe and I are sooo proud to have our daughter, Seanna, on the cover and in a 5 page spread in the March issue of Fresno Magazine.  You can see her grow up the past few years in our pictures below. 

Our daughter Seanna and Princess Leia.

Dundee and Megan. 

Seanna hanging out with me and Ramsey.

Dundee with our neighbor Sabrina.  He has become a very big boy already.  He is about 27" tall and 75 pounds...and he is only 8 months old!  I see some huge puppies in his future!

Our wonderful daughter, Stefanie, married her true love, Buck Price on February 24th, 2007.  They were married in a wonderful old church that was built in 1885 that is nestled in the California foothills.  The groom and groomsmen wore kilts and there was a bagpipe player to welcome the guests!  It was truly one of the best days of my life!

Dundee and Rojo.  Dundee is an Australian Labradoodle and Rojo is a sweet Red Standard Poodle.  They both will add awesome lines to our breeding program as well as becoming a wonderful addition to our family.

Dundee...this boy is sooo sweet and soo mellow.  such a love bug!

Our Lamb Chops has learned how to sneak up on to Joe's lap just like Ramsey and Buttercup do.  She is 9 months old here.

Stefanie with one of Buttercup's babies.

Here is the same puppy as above with Stefanie.  We decided to keep him.  Look at the beautiful white socks he has on his front feet!

Here he is again.  My very clever husband named him "Socks"!  

Beautiful, Beautiful Rocky. Just a big hunk of love!

A beautiful boy already.

Yin and Yang!  This is Standard Poodle Lamb Chops and F1 Goldendoodle Gracie. 

This is what a wet, dirty Goldendoodle looks like!  Buttercup loves the rain, it is just like a big sprinkler turned on from the sky!

My handsome, great-nephew, Sean and one of Lucy's Goldendoodles.

Megan is a dog lover and enjoys taking a dog or two off to play and to work with them.  Here she is getting some puppy love from Pinto and Cindy.  Thank you for all your help, Megan! 

This is how our floor looks when someone is working at the computer!

Lucy also loves the water.  She's a real fish!

This is where Jasmine would be all day long if we would let her!  She absolutely loves to lay on the top pool step!

Father and Son!!! Pinto and Mister going for a ride in the car.  They are both very good about not sticking their heads out of the window. But, they do love the wind blowing on them!
