Sun Dogs
A sun dog or sundog (parhelion) is a common bright circular spot on a solar halo. It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon primarily associated with the reflection or refraction of sunlight by small ice crystals making up cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. Often, two sun dogs can be seen (one on each side of the sun) simultaneously.

Madison "Stinky-cheese Wisconsin" as a baby - sooo cute but sooo stinky. We got her about the same time we went to Green Bay for the packers game and while at the cheese store - found some stinky cheese - smelled a lot like our stinky kitty. Gross.
