Monday FunDay

 We got around 4 inches of snow - the real deal this time☺  The only down side is that it is bitterly cold out and mom told me from the start that this was going to be a short romp.

Off I go~~

I was having a great time~
Mom noticed that I was picking up my feet and trying to chew the snow and ice off of them and she said that it was time to head inside quickly.
We need to give farmer Will a huge thank you.  He was plowing our driveway before 6am this morning.  What a wonderful gift!  Thank you so much, Will♥
Happy Monday, everyone!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

We are joining Rosie this week for Nature Friday~~

Mom knitted me a "necker".   Miss Susie calls it a necker so we're going with that!  I don't mind Molly's hand me downs but it's pretty special to have one of my very own.

I'm ready for walkies, mom!
We keep seeing this tall grass outside the fence.   Did the birdies plant it?!
Back at home, the Christmas Cactus flowers are opening!
Happy Friday, everyone!

Almost Wordless Wednesday

 Mom will just not give up!

An added bonus~
Sorry it's not better quality but you get the idea.  
I weigh 30 pounds and the Muttluks don't work for me.   If anyone needs or would like them or know someone who would,   please let us know and we can mail them to you.  

Love ya lots♥

Snow on Saturday

 The snow we got was once again, only a dusting but it doesn't stop me from loving it and having fun!



Mom says that this amount of snow is just fine with her as all she has to do is sweep the back porch steps!

Happy Sunday!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

This past Monday was the last time we were out for walkies because mom says that the temps have been too cold and blustery to be walking out there safely.

We did find a bunch of flowers - but they were silk ones and not real ones~
Inside the house, another African Violet decided to make mom smile.
Our Christmas Cactus is budding up~
I kept busy yesterday while mom watched Jimmy Carter's funeral on TV.
Happy Friday, everyone!

Too Freezing for Fun

 Mom took me outside early this morning for business in our snow dusting that we got yesterday.  

We took a walk around the house to the back yard and she gave me the sad news that it's too blustery and cold to play outside today, Duke.
For a short romp, you would need to wear a coat and your boots, which don't seem to stay on your feets.  
Mom gave me Molly's mailman, which she never had an interest in.   A new toy is always welcome☺

Happy Tuesday!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~

We have had very mild temps and for December into January, this is a gift.   New Year's Eve brought us heavy rain and a thunder and lightning display at midnight with no fireworks.  Mom says she doesn't ever remember this happening! Our weather has now changed back from warm to cold and blustery.   Winter is back!  

We missed walkies for three days and thank goodness we're back to decent weather and we're back out there pounding the pavement once again☺    

We did find some moss~
We found some pretty berries~
Mom and I were both happy just to finally be out and about so we were having fun☺
The tree limb guys are in the neighborhood.  I can help you out!   I'm an English working Cocker Spaniel, ya know!
Today is my sissy's birthday!    Happy Birthday, Missy!
Happy Friday, everyone!

Love ya lots♥

New Year's Incentives

 Mom doesn't do resolutions and she keeps hearing the word "incentive" so that's what we're going with.   

She is going to try to eat healthier and lose the five pounds that she gained since Molly's passing.   She has decided that we will be seeing lots of salads around here with spinach~

My sissy's salad contained raw sugar snap peas so we'll be going with those too~
And who doesn't like carrots?!
And what about the tasty grape tomato~
She included provolone cheese, which she wasn't willing to share.  And we'll be adding hard boiled eggs too and maybe some chick peas!

That will be tonight's dinner☺

Love ya lots♥

Another Dreary Day

 This hat was supposed to be a Christmas pressie for me.

Thank goodness it didn't fit!    It looks so much better on you, Francesca!
Paws and fingers are crossed that we see the sun soon.   This rain and fog is getting depressing!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

Miss Laura has huge ornies hanging from her trees!

We did find mushroom growth~
One more African Violet has blossoms on it☺
Why aren't these Canada geese afraid of me and flying off?
Happy Friday, everyone.   I am officially eleven months old today!
