Update on the Dogdog!

Ok well I guess my vow to blog more in 2012 has not worked out so well. I really have no excuse other then busy-ness! Truthfully I have been very busy with dogdog so I thought it would be a great time to give you an update on him.

He played in the snow


Learned to read


Drank out of his fountain


Got wasted on pixy stix


And felt ashamed about it


Played with his blanket


Was curious


Got loved on


Chewed on a deer antler


Was too tired to finish pizza


….


Got a belly scratch


Went on an adventure


Got a new watering hole


Had a puppuccino


And had ear surgery






After a month of infections, antibiotics and ear drops Brass ended up with a hematoma in his ear. We had to have it surgically fixed and after 10 days we are ready to get the stitches out! He has an incision on the underside to drain the blood and a piece of x-ray film stitched to the outside for support. He has done extremely well with everything and has put up with everything I have had to do to him. I am so ready for him to be all better!

All I wanted...

All I wanted was to have a picture of Dogdog and myself in front of the Christmas tree...

Thanksgiving

So this year I did something I have never done before for thanksgiving. I left home and went to visit my sister. My mom joined us and unfortunately my dad had to work. But we really did have a great time and I think this will be tradition from now on.




First of all we celebrated my sisters birthday, it actually fell on thanksgiving day this year as it does sometimes. She received some fab gifts and I think she had a great day.




We cooked the whole meal and just had a fantastic time being a family. My camera died right as we started cooking lunch and like a dodo I did not have my extra battery OR charger. So these are my only pictures. We made pea and corn salad, pumpkin rosito, pecan pie, pumpkin bars everything!!






I am blessed daily by being a part of this family.

Camera Fight!
