The Coolest

Who’s the coolest?

Petal is the coolest.

Sporting Hello Kitty leg-warmers and a sequin scarf, Petal is the coolest dog around.

I have too much fun with this dog.

On a scale of 1 to 10 how grateful do you think Lassie is to have a sister for me to play dress up with so he doesn’t have to?

Saying Goodbye to 2012

I must admit that I’m excited to see 2012 go. It feels like it’s been one exhausting year and I’m ready for a new year. A new start.
I’m excited to see what 2013 brings us.
I thought it would be fun to look back on 2012 with a post from each month of 2012.
There is a snapshot from each post and if you click on it (or the post title below it) it’ll take you to the full post.
Enjoy!

The very worst part of 2012.
She passed away the same day my grandpa did 4 years prior.
I also want to link to this post: Our gratitude because I am still so grateful and still so in awe of all of  you and your kindness.

This dog is wonderful.

So I couldn’t resist linking to 3 posts for December. I had to link to Petal’s birthday and to Lassie’s gotcha day and then, of course, I had to link to a Christmas-y post. 😉

Thank you all for following us through 2012 and being so kind to us. We love you guys.
I hope you all have a fun, and safe, New Year’s Eve and a wonderful new year!

Santa Paws and Reindeer Dog

A bit of the snow we got actually stuck!
Which was really lucky, because it meant the Collies got to eat cheese dress up and pose in the snow.
After zooming around the yard, Lassie and Petal got down to cheese earning business by putting up with this:

They were awesome, of course.
Up until Lassie decided that he’d rather work alone.
His reindeer was seriously holding him back.

Thank goodness for cheese or this may have never worked out.

I hope your holidays are spent with loved ones and filled with holiday cheer.
