Will March come in like a lion?

What the heck was February, I wonder?  Lots of bitter cold, mild temperatures, sun, snow, sh*t-loads of snow, rain, and everything in between.

We have guests here this weekend!  Our friends Nari and Kya are staying for a couple of days (as they did last weekend too) while their mama is visiting her family.

Here are a few photos from last weekend.

Fun in the snow

More fun to be had in the snow today.  Brosa digs out his Holee-roller from a snow bank and happily leaps for it over and over again each time I throw it.

Oscar is NOT impressed and would like to go indoors

 

If you think you're bringing that snow-filled Holee-roller indoors, think again buster!

This is what Brosa looked like this afternoon when snoozing, lol!

Our first big storm of 2011!

Snow has been steadily falling - up to 45 cm is forecasted for some areas.

Delta and Brosa enjoy leaping through it, but Oscar requires a path shoveled for him... however, he will still hop/wade into the deep stuff if it means peeing where the others go!

New pillow from Costco!

Went shopping last week and bought our first-ever bolster pillow.  The pups are enjoying it!

And here's a typical night when I'm trying to crawl into bed (2 of the 3 usually have to move over!):

The New Year is off to a lazy start!

 

Hey there, it's Brosa wishing you a Happy New Year!

We bunched up mama's Leopard Snuggie in a ball along with her leopard blanket!

We were bored by "Eclipse" last night so we passed out on momma's hip.  

Or rather, Delta did, and I used Delta as a bed.  I slid behind her when momma moved!

 MMM!  Momma gave us stuffed marrow bones.  

But I was sure Delta's was better than mine so I had to have a taste and see.

 Mine's pretty good too!

Oscar loves his but he won't share.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

From our house to yours, all the best for 2011.

Brosa is 2 years old now!

This past Thursday, November 25th, Brosa quietly turned 2 years old.  On Monday, I decided since he was such a big boy now, it's time to start staying out of the crate in the daytime, and he has made me proud of him.  He'd previously had been out of the crate at most 5 or 6 hours unsupervised, and now, he can go the whole day.

Brosa's Auntie Lee Anne had already sent a gift to him, with strict instructions not to open it until his birthday; after I came home from work, it was celebration time!

 First you have to push the gift all around the kitchen floor because it smells so wonderful.

 Then you give it a really good sniff while mama opens the card.

 The front of the card

 The inside of the card:  "Happy Birfday, you little monkey!  Love your CB fam!"


They know us well!

 Gift #1 - a cute new Bandanna which he will wear proudly at a future rescue event.

 Jackpot!  Homemade cookies, a new rubber Chuck-it ball, and a beautiful new collar we were eying!

 Modeling the collar while waiting for one of the yummy cookies.

 Today was Santa Pix day for the SPCA - after our photo (at the end of this blog post), we went to Three Dog Bakery to buy a belated birthday treat (along with a "Good Dog!" treat for the pictures).  Brosa gets a Boxer Brownie.

 Delta and Oscar each get a Puppermint Lickety Split.

 Ready......... set...........

 OKAY!

 Oscar, ever the glutton, grabs all of his treat in his mouth and struggles with trying to break it up to swallow, lol!

 While Delta, ever the lady, politely licks her treat until it's all gone.

Taking his cue from the rat bastard, Brosa picks up his brownie and walks away with it, leaving a delightful mess all over the carpet!

And voila!  Today's Santa Pix photo taken at the Chapters store in Dartmouth Mic Mac Mall area.  We were the first in line today and got in and out before it got crazy!

This is my scanned photo - the actual digital photo, coming soon, will be much clearer.

Enjoy your Christmas season!
