Our Sunflower:)

Hi Everyone,

They face the sun in the morning:)

.
They are growing up really big!

When our friend Tamie was here a few weeks ago she helped mom plant a sunflower and boy is it every growing. Now the flowers are starting to bloom and they are really pretty. Mom says she has never seen a sunflower this color before and she really likes it:)

I Put My Paw Down!

Hi Everyone,

Sunset after a hot day:)

It's supposed to be hot again tomorrow:(

Mom I am NOT a happy doggie!!!!

There is a ball down there mom!!

Mom let us down there to get the ball!

OK mom it's time to go in and YOU are going to update my blog!

I Finally had to put my paw down with my mom!!! It's been almost 2 weeks since out family reunion in Pennsylvania and she hasn't updated my blog! Abby and I have been on the pawphone, she is having the same trouble with her mom!! They were doing pretty good for awhile and I always worry that this is going to happen. Tonight I told her NO more excuses and she had better get cracking! She is not IN the doghouse she is UNDER it in a VERY big pile of doggie poo!!!! Tonight we are sitting out on the deck, it's cooled off after a brutally hot day today. There is a nice breeze and we had a beautiful sunset. Now it's time to go in and watch a little tv while mom gets this done!

We Are In A Room And Can't Wait To See Everyone Tomorrow:)

Hi Everyone,

We got a motel room tomorrow and have to get up really early to finish our trip to the reunion! Mom tried to tell me that I was a naughty boy today rolling down the back window in the car:( I'm just smart and she Should know that by now!!

It's been a really good trip, nice weather and we can't wait to see all our doggie friends and their moms and dads tomorrow!!

Mom has been thinking (that's scarey). She doesn't know one other "normal" family that looks forward to getting together like our SBG Family! It's pretty special for all of us to travel all this way and get together because of the one woman who brought us all together with her love for the puppies she helped bring into this world and all of us puppies will be forever grateful to Gma Mary for finding all of us the right homes where will be loved and taken care of by the people we love and who love us with all their mommy & daddy hearts<3  Gma Mary we all miss you and know that you will be with all of us tomorrow and it will bring you so much joy to see so many of your precious babies together:)

Gpa Philip will be there and we are all looking forward to seeing him again too! It would have been Gma & Gpa's 21st wedding anniversary tomorrow and we are so glad that he won't have to spend it alone.

Because of you we are a family:)

Resting up tomrorrow is a BIG day!

 Lots of Love Mr. H:)

Not Again!

Hi Everyone,

I don't think I know that my mom is crazy and so is Abby & Maggie's mom! It is just a tail, yes it is cute! Especially when the little curl grows on the end of it! And how the sun lite it.......... MOM! I have news! This morning dad told mom to take us to a "detailer" for our haircuts this time, so we look REALLY good for the reunion! I have been to a groomer before but this will be a new one for Mrs. B. Mom will make the appointment tomorrow and I will have mom post pictures! And MAYBE they will cut the curl off the end of my tail!!

Keep putting your best paw forward! Mr. H:)

Yes mom it is still cute!

We Got To Come See Dad:)

Hi Everyone,

You can bring the ball with us Bee:)

Are we about there mom?

Boy there's a LOT of room back here!

Hey mom put our water bowl back here. It's nice not to have to hop down in front of the seat:)

Dad called last night and wanted mom to bring us down to Illinois to see him:) We were just going to come down and go back home, but instead mom and dad got a room and we taking a day off to just chill out and relax. That's ok because it's HOT outside! we think the race is boring, but mom and dad like watching it!

MOM!!!

Hi Everyone,

I know it's cute mom!

Of course it wags!

It's going to get hot today!

Mom was so excited this morning when she saw the little curl at the end of my tail this morning! Abby what is it with our moms taking pictures of our tails? To everyone else, keep putting your best paw forward and watch out for you mom and her camera when you aren't looking!

Mom's Story This Month

Hi Everyone,

I hope mom is able to make this work. Her story is really near and dear to my little doggie heart:)

Who Let The Dogs Out?

www.tenfourmagazine.com

In 2005, after Hurricane Katrina, trucker Sue Wiese was touched by all the stories of what was happening to the animals caught in this disaster, as well as the

Well look at this she did it! Way to go mom!

Keep putting your best paw forward and think of all the doggies not as fortunate as we are! Mr. H:)

Poor Little Maggie Was Set UP!

Hi Everyone,

I got a call from sweet little Maggie (Abby let her use the pawphone) and she told me what her mom did to her! She gave Abby a treat and didn't give her one. Abby is not eating it so she took it up on the couch! I think this is an outrage! Auntie Angie how can you give Abby a treat and Not give Maggie one! I had a VERY serious talk with my mom and told her she better have you a word with you about this at the reunion! You should know better than that, if one doggie gets a treat they all get a treat that is Doggie Law!

                                              Auntie Angie this is what I think of this matter. Mom couldn't find a picture of my tail but I'm sure you get the drift:)

Mom's Flowers

Hi Everyone,

Mom is all excited to see her flowers blooming! I think they are pretty and a few of them provide a place for me to hike my leg (mom does NOT like it when I do that:) I won't repeat what she tells me she is going to do to me! I know better though my mom wouldn't hurt me and when I am bad I'm never in trouble very long, how could you stay mad at a face that looks at you like I do?

Mom says we are going to sit outside again tonight since it's so nice out. That's ok as long as she is out there with us I am good with that!

Mom just planted this last year and is so happy it's growing this much!

Look close there is a little birdie on the leaf under the birdbath:)

Have a Beautiful Day wherever you are! Mr. H:)

Our Sunflower

Hi Everyone,

Mom planted a sunflower and boy is it ever growing. Here is it's progress so far!

This is right after we planted it~~

It's growing bigger and faster than I did!

It likes it here!

Mom will water and feed it so it gets REALLY big!

Mr. H:)

Good Morning!

Hi Everyone,

It is beautiful at our house this morning! Mom is so happy that all her flowers are blooming and her favorite right now is Gma Mary's yellow rose bush:) It is full of buds and should bloom all season. It's getting plenty of water since it's under our new tree and mom has to keep that watered!

I see that Abby & Maggie have their mom home all the time now and they are liking it! We are getting really excited to see everyone next week! I can't believe it won't be long before we leave for Pennsylvania:)

Keep putting your best paw forward! Mr. H:)

Doggie Prison!!

Hi Everyone,

Why did mom put us out here again??

So we could make sure they are doing a good job in our timber!

Hey mom over here!

Stretch! Looks like they are going ok!

Doggie prison with a view!

Hi Mom! Glad you bought that new chair today so you can sit out here with us!

Mrs. B is giving mom a kiss under her ballcap:)

Come on get down, I want up in moms lap!

I love you mom!

Why yes I do like the bed you bought us:)

What is this you had me sit up so pretty and you Don't have a treat! I am going to protest!

Can I get up in your lap mom?

I am soooooooo full mommy I don't feel good!

No I don't want to get up in your lap!

I am trying to figure out how to escape!

Well mom has built a little place for us behind the garage and I keep telling her that it is doggie prison! But she keeps telling me that it is our space to be outside and she doesn't have to worry about me running off! At least we can be happy that our little doggie prison has a view! Mom bought a doggie bed to put in there for us and Mr. H uses it so she's going to get another one so Mrs. B will have a bed too. Mom told me that she is looking at garage sales for a slide and any other toys that she thinks we might like. I guess prison could be a lot worse! She always puts fresh cold water in our dish every time she puts us out here:) Mom is tired tonight so I will let her get by with just one post, but I will keep on her so she doesn't get behind! Keep putting your best paw forward! Mr. H:)
