WE GOT SNOW!!! (Almost Wordless Wedensday)

We actually got SNOW in our yard this past weekend!!!!  It wasn't a big bunch, but it was actual snow that we could eat and everything!



Dott on Mail run with Robert... (HE took the pics, so guess who got to be in most of them...)

Checking for neighbor dogs...


Making yellow snow...


Hey, squirrel... is there snow down there, too?

 OK, Dad... I'm coming!

Hey, Brother BG... What do YOU think?

 Check out the snow on the Picnic Table in the back yard, guys!
Mmmm... This snow is pretty good eating!




Look out there at old Cory in his pen!

Guess WHAT!?!  This weekend, some of us are going to get to go camping in our new Travel Trailer!  Grammy's not sure who will get to go... depends on how nice we are to each other...  :(

Hurray! The BEACH! By OC

Sunday, after going to church and having a quick lunch, Papa and Grammy grabbed Auntie Mimi (Grammy’s sister) and Pippin, Gimli, Grandma OC and me, and we went to the Beach at Pismo!

It was WONDERFUL! It was 98 here at home AND raining with lots of lightening in the sky, so I was really happy that we left! It was so pretty there and COOL!!! They said it only got to 68 there!

We took Auntie Mimi with us because her birthday is this week, and we love her and thought that she might like to go to a pretty beach and be cool. She walked with us and took lots of pictures. We think that she enjoyed herself a lot and we loved having her with us, too!



When we first got there, we
went for a walk. I was so excited, and wanted to go, so they put my wheelchair on, and off we went.





I got to sniff around and check out things just like everyone else. It was so much fun! I even got a really good run in!








I don’t get out to much anymore since it turned so hot, and since they decided to keep me and Sadie separated completely, so that I can’t get to her anymore after that last fight. I still yell at her when she comes into the room… at least until they get out the squirt bottle…





Anyway, after a while, we all went back to the car, sat down and visited.







Then Grammy decided to take Gimli out by himself so he could get a good look at the water.





The rest of us had to stay with Papa and Mimi at the car. We were NOT happy, and Pippin really wanted to go out too!



He talked to Papa and convinced him to call Grammy back and take him out too, but then he didn’t like it when the water came up to get him!



Then Papa came back and took both BG and Pippin for a walk up the beach… When they got back, BG grabbed Papa’s chair!



I TOLD him that he had better get out of it…







But he just sat there and looked smug!



We sat and visited for awhile more, and then Papa took Pip out for a while for some alone time with him.



Then, Papa took BG out for some alone time with him, and while we were watching Papa walking BG, the pups noticed some people coming down the beach with a Basset Hound.



They thought maybe it was Martha or Bailey, and so we called out to it, but it turned out to be a boy basset.







When it got time, for dinner, they took Mimi to their favorite Fish and Chips place by the pier. We had to stay in the car while they ate, but we were pretty tired, so didn’t mind too much. We KNEW we’d get jerky treats when they got back to the car. All in all, it really was a wonderful day at the beach, and we all enjoyed ourselves! 


P.S. We saw some people with 3 corgis come onto the beach, but they were quite a ways up from us and to far the even get a picture of them...  Grammy was NOT happy!

Just Doin’ My Job… By BG

I’ve noticed that sometimes, when it sprinkles, there is a little gremlin that jumps up and races across our windshield!





We will be calmly driving along and suddenly… WOOSH! It jumps up and skates across in front of us!

I’m usually laying on Grammy’s lap when we are in the car, but when I hear that gremlin, I jump up and stand guard on the dash.

Dott checked and told me not to worry because it is called a windshield wiper and it is to take the rain off of the windshield, but I KNOW about that and THAT thing keeps going back and forth. After I watch it go for a few swipes, I lay back down and rest now, though I used to have a problem with IT, too…

The thing I’m seeing doesn’t go back and forth! It lays in wait at the side of the window, and just jumps up and runs every once in a while.

I KNOW it is trying to break in and GET US!!!

But I am ON GUARD!

I WILL NOT let it get by ME!!!


NOTE from Grammy: These pics were taken while sitting in our driveway… not driving down the road…
