Beard Update and a Pressie from Bogie

Mom was combing and styling my beard again today and this time she put one of her hand made Airedale barrettes on me! How do I look?

It's a teeny bit on the large size but it's an Airedale so it's okay, right!
My beard has grown another 1/2 inch! I'm now at 4 1/2 inches!
Sorry about the wet look but I was thirsty and had to have a drinky before the photo shoot!

Only 3 weeks to go and the beard contest will reach a peak! Can anybody beat my length? Get those rulers out and measure, measure, measure and report back to me and Stanley, okay?!

Mitch and I got a pressie in the mail yesterday from our Handsome Airedale friend, Bogie! Bogie sent us each a bandana! Aren't they just beautiful! Thank you so much, Bogie! That was so thoughtful of you!

Bogie's note says that he hopes we can tell which bandana belong to which one of us! We're checking it out to make sure that we guessed correctly! What do you guys think? Do I look better in pink or do you think that Bogie meant for the pink one to be Mitch's?!



You are such a great friend to us, Bogie! Thank you so very, very much!


So until next time...............

Love ya lots,

Maggie

  2. Wow--A totally AWESOME beard! It looks quite handsome and reminiscent of those guys on the cough-drop box.

    The bandana shots are priceless.

    Cheers,

  5. Hey Maggie,
    Willow & I will have to get the measuring tape out to check our beards. They look longer but not sure if they're as long as yours.

    Hugs and tail wags

  11. Oh, I think you can win Maggie! It's really loooong... So once the competition is over & the winner is announced, is your mom gonna slice it off after that? I bet it gets wet & mushy all the time when eating & drinking. You both look great in your bandannas!

    Love licks,

  15. Superb beard you have there Maggie. I will have to get mine measured soon, but alas, I don't think it has grown very much recently.

    Your bandanas are stunning too, you look great in them.

  20. I'm pretty sure you'd whip Pappy in an undoctored beard contest. 4.5 inches is no small accomplishment.

  22. Maggie, you look cool always, whatever you wear and your beard is totally amazing. I never thought I would love a gal with a beard, but hey, you are some chick with a beard I can tell you. You do my Marvin Heart good just to see you posing!

    Oh and YAY! Big excitement we got your Christmas Card today! How cool is your picture on that card? Thank you so much, now I am going to let Jeannie comment in the next comment..........

    love and licks, Marvin xxxxx

  23. Hi there Maggie and Mitch!

    and your Mama!

    We posted a card out to you on Monday, it was the last posting date for aire mail to the US, so it was all a rush (as usual!)

    I could not get the Labrador card I wanted or the one of our home town cos the shop was closed....... ;0)

    so the one I sent has Westies on it.....

    but then I visited three, THREE, post offices and the queues were seriously out of the door to get the card weighed and stamped.

    So hubby, Keith, said, well I have some stamps, lets guess how much it will be to post so they get it in time.......

    Now I will be so darn embarrased if it was not enough stamps on the card........!

    Please forgive me, I hope you get it ok without having to pay any darn surcharge....we put what I had paid last week for a card airmailed to Australia, and a wee bit more1

    Well, our thoughts were there! The UK is just silly there are so few post offices and so many people wanting to use them.

    Now gone for the record as the longest comment ever I think!

    Love and light to you all, Jeannie xxxxxxxxx http://hollowhound.blogspot.com

  25. That is a very nice bracelet and we don't think it is to big. It is just beautiful on you.. We really like the bandana's too. I don't think Louie or I will look good in pink...

  26. Pink definitely suits you, Maggie. I'm really impressed with your beard! Is Mitch growing his too? He looks cool in his bandanna.

  27. Wow, Maggie! Your beard is soooooo long! I'm rather jealous! J x

  28. Maggsteroni!

    It looks to me like Mitch is totally interested in your neck. Did you get any landsharking from him on the photo shoot? (You look very perty in pink, girl!)

    I think that I am personally out of the beard contest. Stella has pulled so much of it out already. We'll do an official measurement this week. I have to say that I AM IMPRESSED with your beard, and a little bit envious too.

    Goober love,
    Stanley

  29. Woweee! What a beard! You are going to sweep the board, girl!

    What I want to know is how come you allow a ruler to be held up to your chin UN-MUNCHED. I'd have turned that into lots of very short rulers in a matter of seconds. And I have a sneaky suspicion Mitch would too. ;)
