I feel like I'm cheating...


...on Netflix. We had my Grandpa over for dinner tonight. Afterwards the humans felt like watching a movie so Daddy ran out to pick up a movie from the Red Box. What's a Red Box, you say? It's a big red box where you can rent dvds for $1. Daddy picked G.I. Joe. It was a very noisy movie, not a moment without loud noises and screams. I like Netflix better because it has more movies for dogs, like Air Bud and Milo and Otis (my personal favorite). I let my Daddy have the day off from hiking so he could go golfing with his Daddy. I got grass fed filet mignon tonight. Wowee!!! It wasn't even my birthday. This Saturday turned out pretty great even though we didn't go for a hike. Don't worry friends, we did have a walkie.:)

Thankful Thursday



Today I am thankful for pumpkins. Look at all these pumpkins. Mommy's good friend told her about a nursery that was giving away free pumpkins. We went to pick them up today. You might be wondering, "what is she going to do with all those pumpkins?" Mommy uses pumpkins or sweet potatoes in our cookies. They are my favorite! She will also be making lots of pumpkin pies, muffins, breads, bars, and cakes. I can hardly wait! On the way home we saw a HUGE St. Bernard and his little Chihuahua brother or sister. He is the biggest pup I've ever seen. What is the biggest pup you've ever seen?

A Tribute to my very first DWB friend, Hana



Tonight we found out that my dear friend, Hana, crossed the rainbow bridge on Friday. We are still in shock and Mommy had lots of tears. Hana was our first DWB friend and introduced us to so many of our special friends. We will miss you Hana. Please stop by Hana's blog to show her parents support and encouragement. Mommy says that sometimes there aren't words to ease someone's pain. We thought this song, Dancing with the Angels by Monk and Neagle was appropriate:

Memories surround me
But sadness has found me
I'd do anything for more time
Never before has someone meant more
And I can't get you out of my mind

There is so much that I don't understand
But I know...

You're dancing with the angels
Walking in new life
You're dancing with the angels
Heaven fills your eyes
Now that you're dancing with the angels

You had love for your family
Love for all people
Love for the Father, and Son
Your heart will be heard
In your unspoken words
Through generations to come

There is so much that I don't understand
But I know

We're only here for such a short time
So I'm gonna' stand up, shout out,
And sing Hallelujah
One day I'll see you again

A new toy




One of my favorite toys is the rabbit stuffie . They have long ears. They have a squeaky belly and squeaky feet. They have long whiskers like me. They are also very very soft. I had one a while ago but I destroyed it. Mommy knows how much I love rabbit stuffies and she bought one for me today. Sierra and I were both very excited about my new toy. We played with it while Mommy and Daddy worked out.

Week thirty three in the garden


I am happy to report that we still have a ton of green tomatoes. We did harvest about ten big ones this week. Mommy already stewed them and put them into the freezer. Daddy was sad when he harvested the Sweet Spanish Yellow Utah Jumbo Onions today. They weren't jumbo at all. There weren't any onions. They just look like green onions/scallions. I wonder what we didn't do right. I guess we've got our work cut out for us next year. We'll have to do lots of research on how to make them grow big. Anyone have any pointers on growing onions?
