Enjoying a Warm Spring Day


It has been an unusually warm spring. If you remember last year, we had an April Fool's storm that left us with a late start to spring. This year it feels like we have moved right into summer.

The birds have moved into their summer condos in our tree house. We heard them outside the windows this morning as they were waking at 4:00 AM. We like listening to the birds and we have peaceful relationships with them. In fact they appreciate we keep the squirrels away from their nests in our tree house.

Happy Patriot's Day!




Happy Patriots Day!

To those of you who don't celebrate, this is the day Massachusetts celebrates the Battles of Lexington and Concord, not that Boston is running a marathon.

We are celebrating that dog Dad has an extended birthday weekend.

Happy Birthday Dad!




It's a birthday weekend for Dad. We decided he needs more fresh air so we are taking him on a nice walk for his birthday. After all chasing squirrels does not an income make. We give from the heart. We are inspecting Dad's gift bag to make sure everything is in order.

Happy Birthday Dad. Lots of kisses and furry snuggles are coming your way.


This weekend is also Patriot's Day weekend in MA. Mom says they will be reenacting the Battles of Lexington and Concord. What it means to us is Dad has a long weekend.

Preparing the Baby Binky with Sheltie Love


Mom doesn't realize this, but the baby binky needs some Sheltie Dreams and love to be complete before she sends it off to its new home.

Easter Toys




Along with the bones we found in the Easter Eggs, the Easter Bunny brought us some new toys. The bunny frogs were cute, but the duck and the bunny have this amazing paper crinkling sound. We love attacking paper and Mom told the Easter Bunny this might distract us from real paper. She has discovered one problem. The sounds we make playing with these sound just like the sounds we make when we are getting into trouble with the real stuff. Bailey liked pulling the duck from the egg, until he realized he could not get the duck back inside its home. It does not seem to bother Katy, but while Bailey likes getting the toys out of puzzles, he gets upset when they do not go back where they belong on their own and he cannot manipulate them back in with paw and mouth. Mom came to his rescue, placing the duck back into his egg pouch.


As with all our holiday toys, these will head to the attic when the decorations go away, so Mom will not be dealing with the paper issue for long.
