Claiming the Easter Basket

I'm no fool, she who claims the Easter basket claims the treats inside. We've had this doggy Easter basket for several years and it came filled with Easter stuffies. However, there is nothing saying that big bunny won't fill it with treats if I hold on to it.

Mom is still trying to figure out how I got my leg thought the hole. She made Dog Dad watch me when I got up to make sure I didn't hurt myself.

Easter Peeps

Mom saw these plush Peeps at Pet Smart when we were there getting our pictures taken last Saturday. Dog Dad mentioned we weren't playing much with our toys, but Mom said these were cute enough to use as decorations if we didn't play with them.

Mom has since been finding Peeps scattered around the house. She rarely sees us playing with them, but every night she puts them back in our day bed, but when she looks for them they are never there.

Wordless Wednesday: Visiting the Easter Bunny

Mom likes taking us on outings, especially when she gets the chance to get our picture taken. Saturday Pet Smart offered free pictures with the Easter Bunny and Mom and Dad brought us down to have our pictures taken. We found a giagantic bunny located in a side room waiting for us. Mom warned us this was not a bunny to chase as giant bunnies would not be intimidated by bad Sheltie behavior. We weren't too worried about any bunny and then we saw that Mom wasn't kidding, the bunny really was a GIANT and it walked on two legs. We were very polite to the bunny.

We liked the room the pictures were taken in because Mom closed the door and we were allowed to wander around before we had to approach the bunny. The bunny turned out to have soft hands and gave some good tummy rubs while pictures were being taken. Dog Dad was allowed to snap pictures and the lady from Pet Smart took a picture that she emailed to Mom, too. Dog Dad and Mom said we did a great job and the bunny even gave us packaged treats when we left.

Easter Toys

Last week Mom dug out our Easter toys that she packs away with her Easter decorations. We have a rather large collection because Bailey loved these toys. Katy has been showing some interest, but I, Annie find them a little intimidating. They are rather loud and odd looking. However, I will say they make great pillows.

Hanging in the Snow Bank

Annie has been very curious about the snow banks this Spring. Mom thankfully missed the shot of Annie rolling into the bushes and me, Katy, standing there panicked thinking she was eaten by the bush. Mom just laughed and called her and she bounced out like nothing was wrong. The girl is nuts, but she does love hanging out in the snow.

Avoiding Snowmageadon

First we were supposed to get over a foot of snow. Then it was 8-12 inches of snow. By Tuesday we were down to 3-6 inches but starting Wednesday afternoon. When we went to bed, no snow. It was blowing around when we woke up this morning, but not really coming to anything much. Dog Dad and Mom were not displeased. They were able to get out and go to the pool to exercise as the pool has been closed during all the other storms last night.

While the storm tried to get up its energy we didn't get much more than an inch. Perhaps Spring is starting to assert itself.

The Snow Corridor

Mom has certain shots that she just likes to get of us. One is comparing us to the height of other things, high snow walls work. The other is her strange facination with the paths in our race track that Dog Dad digs for us. She just delights in catching pictures of us in the paths.
