Oh Deer!

Look what I found while wondering around in the woods with dad!

I was really looking forward to getting to know them. But, they wouldn't talk to me! I even tried screaming at them and all they did was run away! That was totally rude!!

They're just lucky I was on a leash!

Two!

I'm two years old today!!

And, just as adorable as a grown-up pup...


As I was as a baby pup!

A very happy birthday to my sisters Cornelia Marie and Lilly, and my brother Shinzou! I hope you all get some yummy birthday treats! I'm hoping for ham!

Potholes

Apparently there is an ongoing issue with potholes in Omaha. It has been all over the news here for over a month. Apparently the humans do a lot of complaining about them.

I sure hope they don't start blaming us for this problem!

Oh, and no, I wasn't tired like dad said. I was just stopping to see if any pup else wanted to work on the pothole.

A Dorky Birthday

Today is Samuel's 12th birthday. To celebrate, I thought I would share some photo's of the dork boy. Some are pre-droop, some post-droop. For anyone who is new, Samuel got an aural hematoma in his right ear in January 2008 and had to have surgery to remove it. This resulted in the cartilage being damaged and therefore, the droop. It just makes him look dorkier than he was before the droop!

Anyway, here are some fun pics I thought I would share.

Here he is getting spoon fed by mom. How pathetic is that!?

This is one of Samuel's many t-shirt moments. From skin issues caused by allergies to various surgeries, he has been through many a t-shirt in his life.

A happy dork boy in the snow.

At the playground.

Getting vacuumed by the Dyson. Good grief!

Sleeping happily on the couch.

A true dork.

With a toy.

Yet another Dyson vacuuming session. Truly pathetic!

Hanging out in the bed.

Outside by the bushes.

His "cat" pose.

The hematoma before the surgery. It was so big it made his ear droop.

Pre-surgery droop. Hanging out in the bed.

Post surgery. He is now droopy forever.

One of his many "bucket head" moments.

Droopy and wearing a t-shirt.

Being a weirdo, here he is standing on the end table. No clue why. But, then again, no one ever really understands some of the strange things he does.

Not sure about this one other than it's another t-shirt moment.

Snugly tucked in bed. Looking goofy.

And, yet another t-shirt moment. This one with the baby hanging out with him.

T-shirt boy, hanging with the baby again.

Some of his first moments with baby Khady. Already he was becoming her chew toy! (notice it is yet another t-shirt moment)

Here's the baby trying to hang out in the bed with him.

I'm not real sure about this one. Or where he got the bottle of Zima!

A nice pose by the bushes.

This is where he hangs out when it's storming outside. He's such a baby!

I think he's possessed by a demon in this picture. Or, he's just insane. It's a toss-up between the two.

Another example of why I call him pathetic.

Chillin' in the pool.

Happy birthday Samuel!!! You are truly a valuable part of this family. Without you, Khady would not have a live chew toy, mom wouldn't have anyone to "fuss" over for being so pathetic, and none of us would have as many laughs as we do on a daily basis!

Just so you all know, he is celebrating in his usual style. He's napping on his doggie bed in front of a fan. Oh wait! That's what he does EVERY day!!! Hawoowoowoo!!

Abby's Big Adventure Part 2

Happy Friday everyone! Thank you for your patience in waiting an extra day, and I do apologize for not getting to this yesterday. Sometimes, mom just doesn't let me get to my duties. She's kind of lame!

Anyway, on to Abby's big adventure with dad! They soon set off from the scenic overlook. Here is Abby in dads car. You'll never guess where they went next!

It's dad's mom's house! She lives out in the middle of nowhere Nebraska on a farm. Seriously! There's nothing around except corn fields! This is where dad and his 9 siblings grew up. Yes, you read that correctly - NINE siblings!!! That is one huge litter! Holy cow!! (heehee, a little farm humor for you) Anyway, onward we go.

Abby was anxious to check out all the cool stuff.


Here she is with some old equipment.


Next, she's checking out some old fence posts and fencing wire. Dad was careful not to let her get tangled in the wire cuz he knows how much we all love to sniff new things!


Hmmmm.....I wonder what use to be in that old jar? I bet it was something tasty at one time!


Mom really liked this next picture. Abby is in front of the old barn. It's very cool and rustic looking!


Abby really wanted to check out what was behind the old sliding door. I can certainly guess why!


I bet there are some really cool critters in there that would be fun to chase!


Then, she's on her way to something else.


This looks as if it could be rather interesting.


Ooooohhh, I can only imagine the really cool smells! I wonder what sort of animals use to live behind that fence?


Off she goes again!



I think that's an old grain bin in the background. And, behind that? Yep, you guessed it. The cornfields! (minus the corn until it's planted, of course)


Wow! That's a really cool looking car there Abby! What mom? Oh, it's a tractor! That's what farmers use to drive around their farms and take care of their crops.


Here's a really cool picture of Abby by the tractor with the barn in the background. This is my personal favorite shot!


Chillin' by the tractor! It's been a long day for her! Even I would have needed a nap by now!


This pic is a little blurry, but she looks like she's happy to be headed home!


I do believe her eyes are getting a bit droopy.


Needless to say, she had such a busy day, she wasn't even hungry for dinner when she got home! (that would never happen to ME) She just wanted to pass out on her pillow and catch some Z's! I don't blame her!


Well, I hope you have all enjoyed reading about Abby's wonderful adventure with dad. I think it's great that she got a "one-on-one" day with dad! She definitely deserved it!

Have a wonderful day!
