I am thankful for…
(In no particular order)

1. Lassie.
2. Petal.
3. The years I had with Ella and everything she taught me.
4. Hot chocolate served in an owl mug.
5. Sweaters and scarves and a reason to wear them.
6. My blog and all the wonderful people I have met through blogging.
7. My family and friends.
8. My health.
9. All the love I have in my life.
10. This song.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone has a lovely holiday.
And for those of you who don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you have a lovely Thursday. 😉 And a great weekend!

Snow!

This is the view I woke up to this morning.
Of course it’s more mud than snow now that it’s 4 pm.
But we had some fun with it before then!
It took a lot of begging (okay, whining worse than a toddler), but I was allowed to go outside. So long as I promised to bundle up and to get my butt back inside the very second I felt cold, no matter how cute the dogs were being.
Yeah, my Mom is a smart one. She knows me and my excuses too well.

I was very well behaved. I didn’t over do it and I let my little sister help me if I needed.
I also came in the house before I got cold.
It was all worth it to see the Collies run around in the snow.
Petal went nuts, acting like the ground was covered in crack rather than snow.

The two of them had a little snow race.
Petal won.

And me and my sister dusted the dogs with snow.
Especially Lassie.
He was an easy target, since he wasn’t running around like a loony fruitcake, unlike Petal.

They had a great time running, wrestling, burying their noses in the snow, and snacking on the snow.
I hope we get some more soon.
I don’t want to deal with the mud, haha.
