Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas! We did lots of fun holiday activities this year, but I was bad and barely too any pictures, except for when we went to the Christmas tree farm. We don't have a Christmas tree, but I love to go to the farm to look at the trees and smell them. Isn't that the best smell? Mom and Raf were very nice and went with me. We all had fun! Mom got a wreath. It was really sunny. We had to take this picture like, "One, two, three... OPEN YOUR EYES!!!!" haha The Christmas trees are really pretty and so is the farm.It also has a beautiful view!Happy Holidays everyone!!!! xoxo

Happy Summer!

I've been trying to spend as much time outside as possible this summer. Sometimes I eat lunch at this park in the North End during work: It has beautiful views! I went one day to see the Tall Ships that were parked in Charlestown: I didn't know what to expect, but I thought they were really cool! There were all different kinds of ships. I don't know if they were all Tall Ships. I especially liked all of the flags. This is my favorite tree in the Public Garden:Boston is getting tropical!Are you surprised I started blogging again? :)

Arnold Arboretum

Rafael and I went to the Arnold Arboretum last weekend. It was really cool and beautiful. We liked the view of the city:Parts of the Arboretum are forest, and other parts are like a park. It was unlike any place I've been. I really loved all of the trees. It was so peaceful.
I couldn't believe we were in Boston! (Notice the big black dog... there were wild animals! jk)There were a few surprises, like seeing Flash!We only saw one super hero, but we certainly saw a lot of people! Little did we know, it was the Lilac Festival! (I just noticed the girl in this photo has a cool t-shirt: Pho Life!)Yikes bikes! Lucky for me, lots of people = lots of dogs! I was on golden retriever and golden doodle overload.This is Wally. He let me pat him. He was so calm. Cute!Of course, since this is Boston and he was wearing a Red Sox bandana, I quickly figured out his namesake.... Wally the Green Monster!
This is one of the cutest photos I've seen:HAHAHAHA! We had a great day at the Arboretum! I want to go back on a less busy day and spend a relaxing afternoon there. :)

Live Oaks

As you can probably tell from previous posts, I pretty much went bananas over the live oaks in Savannah! I think they're beautiful, calm, eerie, and super cool! We drove down lots of streets like this: The Wormsloe Estate has a driveway lined with live oaks:It's amazing and definitely a little scary! Here is the biggest live oak in Savannah: And here is my very own live oak: Sweetie!

Savannah Squares

As you may know, Savannah is a city organized around many squares. They are beautiful little parks and we went on a long walk to all of them! We started at Forsyth Park, which is actually not a square, but it is really nice and has the famous fountain: It also has lots of beautiful plants and paths lined with live oaks. There was a chess/checker board is one of the paths:Cool, right? Thank you Raf for the lovely posing! Then we continued on to the squares. Some of them had really beautiful flowers which I was excited to see since it's still going be a long time until we have blooming here:
Unfortunately, I don't remember which square was which because we saw so many! I'm only including photos of a few. Some of them had really cool fountains:
The squares really make Savannah a beautiful city. I kept telling Raf, "It even smells good here!" I think it was all of the plants. I hope you're enjoying all of my Savannah posts. As you can probably tell, I REALLY loved Savannah! Stay tuned for more!

Christmas Tree Farm

I'm not really that into Christmas, but I love Christmas tree farms! I really like Sidmore's in Deerfield (where Mom lives) because it's so beautiful. Mom was so nice to take me there a few weeks ago. It has a lovely view of a lake:
And lots of pretty trees that smell great!We didn't actually get a tree, but I liked this one:The farm has some animals too. This cutie came to visit us:And this cow was a little shy but I finally got a picture:There were lots of pretty wreaths:I like the one Mom picked.So does Bruno the crazy man:
