I'm back!!

I'm well aware the last year has been a major failure in my blogging career. I have been quite upset at my mother for failing me (If I had thumbs I never would of missed a post!)
Now with the apologies out of the way I can start with catching you up on my crazy life!!
First and biggest news (Drum roll) I have a dad!! (You know a two legger dad.) He married my mom and I have to say they are quite the striking couple!

After the wedding we moved up to Eagle River where my dads house was. I love it here!! Mainly because now I get to go with my mom every day to work!! I'm not even kidding, I really do!
See below for picture proof!

I also love it because my dad plays so hard with me every day that I have no choice but to nap in front of the fireplace multiple times a day. Yes, I know, it's a rough life I lead.
My other great news is they're adding a little two legger to our family! I'm pretty excited because as you all know I love me some babies!
Well, that's enough for now. I need to go get ready for new years! I'm headed to my favorite vets house for a party!!

Mornings

Am I a morning dog? Well yes, yes I am.

I’m a huge fan of snuggling which I’m sure most of you already know..

However in case you don’t here’s my typical morning on the farm.

I wake up with my Aunty Kassy and we snuggle for a bit before we get out of bed.

I LOVE my good morning scratches.

Once I’m out of bed WATCH OUT I tear through the house like my butts on fire! I always make sure to check the living room to be sure my toys are where I left them, and then I find my Papa. He’s usually at the kitchen table where he knows I’ll be meeting him. We have some coffee (By WE I mean him, I’ve tried but he just wont share any with me).

Sometimes Missy beats me to Papa but no worries I just distract her by pretending I’m playing with one of her toys. When she jumps down to take it from me I jump into Papa’s lap! It’s really too easy..

After I eat my breakfast the options for the day are endless! Lots of dogs to visit, people to greet, fun to be had.

So see if you had my life you too would be a fan of mornings. Monday morning no less!  

I Love my Mama! Even When She Ignores Me...

Happy Mother's Day Mom, I never act like this!

Lots of Licks,

Your best friend and #1 furball,

Winter May Be Over but Look at this Fawn Frenchy Frolic!

I guess I won’t complain about wearing that stupid coat next winter if I can get some sledding time in, it looks like it’s a blast!

New Fur Brother!

This is pretty HUGE news. When I say huge I mean like 1,500 pounds huge.

My mom has a new Horse! His name is Diablo and he’s an 8 year old Quarter horse.

Isn’t he beautiful?? No bones about it I’m obviously still the biggest looker in this family, but he’s not too shabby.

My Nana and Papa in Colorado called and surprised my mom with the news right before she left for work. They are AWESOME! Do you know anyone else that gets their kid a horse?? Hey wait a minute…My mom hasn’t got me a horse yet? WTH? Maybe it’s because I don’t have thumbs? Who knows. Anyways, Here’s a picture of them. Not to state the obvious but Daaaaang I have a good lookin family.

So my mom is going down to Colorado when she gets off work to break him. I was initially a bit worried about her because he’s so big, not to mention his name mean Devil! I know she’s a good rider and I’m sure he’ll fall in love with her just like I did so I stopped worrying (mainly for the simple fact that I found one of my chew bones and forgot about it).

My mom has been riding since she was very little. Being a big horse family they all start very young. Here is a picture of my youngest two legger cousin Mason. Yep they start them off early.

 As for me I'm pretty well trained in the horse knowledge department. Unlike this crazy bastard "Gizmo" I know not to EVER, EVER, EVER go into the horse pen. Yep because I'm a smart dog and don't want to get smooshed. I'm perfectly happy OUTSIDE the pen (well that and my mom would spank my butt if she ever caught me in there).

 

Mom has promised to keep me updated with pictures as soon as she gets to Colorado so stay posted!!

TGIWDF

Yes, Yes I know it’s word of the day Friday. Here’s the thing, I forgot to have my two leggers take pictures of me with my words. So I’m mixing things up a bit.

Instead of giving you a word of the day I’m posting a word cloud. It’s pretty cool actually it’s all the words on my blog. The bigger the word the more I’ve used it! Apparently I like my mom… a LOT. He he not like all of you didn’t already know that…

Squishy McFatty Pants, Not Such a B.A.

I’ve been led astray my friends.  For two years I’ve been lead to believe Squishy McFatty Pants is the most vicious B.A. (aka Bad Ass) around.  Not true. 

 

Upon our return from the ice fishing adventure yesterday, I was stalking some of my ladies in Arizona, (Hi Nana! Hi Carrie!), oops by stalking I mean just, uh, checking the weather in Arizona.

 

I stumbled on this article that a friend of a friend posted on Facebook, (no I do not have a Facebook page or Tweet, don’t get me started).  Check out these Freaks on the Golf Course.  

Whatever you do ladies, DO NOT GO GOLFING!

I know I’ve complained about Squishy McFatty Pants but I’ll take her over these freaks any day.

Ice Fishing!

So yesterday my mom says we’re going on an adventure.  I’m all up for that! We’ve been sitting in the house for waaaay too long – it’s time to get out and stretch these legs.  I know what you’re thinking; with 6” legs how much does it take to stretch them?  I’ll tell you… a lot!  Just the other day I JUMPED from one sofa to the other when I was on my strafing run through the house (that’s right, S-T-R-A-F-I-N-G, there’s your word of the day for Friday, look it up).  I was making my rounds all fired up and running hell bent for leather.  I closed my eyes and JUMPED! It was awesome! I flew through the air, landed on all fours (as you do), and kept going.  Then I couldn’t stop because it was so much fun!  My mom was SUPER impressed.

I guess that’s why she decided we needed an adventure, she could tell I was getting a little antsy being cooped up for a few days.  So her friend Justin came over and then we went ice fishing.  I was pretty excited until my mom reached for my down coat! Ugh! I hate that thing!  It’s so binding!  Such a hindrance!  But, she’s the boss of me so I let her put it on. 

We rode out to the lake in Justin’s HUGE red truck.  That thing was so far off the ground that there is no way I could ever jump into it.  Seriously, it was at least four feet off the ground.  But I tell ya, what a view we had from up there!

We went out on the ice on a lake.  It was pretty cool and a little cold on the old man berries because there had been a bit of snow so I was kinda glad I had my coat on – DO NOT TELL MY MOTHER I SAID THAT PLEASE!

Justin drilled a hole in the ice and my mom was a little nervous that I would fall in but hey, the hole wasn’t that big and I’m a dog, I have to sniff everything!



Then Mom and Justin sat with little miniature fishing poles and fished.  And fished. And fished. And caught nothing!  I watched with baited breath, (ha, ha, get it? baited breath?? I am so funny!), but nothing exciting came out of that hole.

I guess the fish thought it was too cold to come out of the water?  I don’t know but it was sure fun to get out of the house and smell some new smells!  I was pretty exhausted on the way home.  All of those awesome smells, struggling with that damn coat all day, and waiting and waiting for the fish that never came.  I conked right out on the way home.

Chill-ax-ing! It's what I do Best!

My mom got home finally late Wednesday night and man was she tired! She was so sleepy she ended up sleeping at Nana and Papa’s house with me and Aunt Kassy!

Then we went home and mom and I hung out at home and watched some movies and slept.  We basically just kicked back for the whole weekend.  It was pure bliss I tell you!  I guess all of that fun in the sun in Hawaii and then working in the cold north can take its toll on a woman.  

 

I am so glad she is home though; first thing Thursday I got a bath.  Not my favorite thing to do, it’s cold and all of the awesome smells I gathered in my fur at the farm just get washed down the drain… bummer!  Mom says I smell better but whatev….

The best part of getting a bath? Cuddle time with the blanket and I get control of the remote!

 

We took a few naps together on the couch and then a dog had the audacity to walk past our house.  I quickly made sure they kept their distance and stayed off MY turf.

Back to the sofa for some more chillin’ with my mom…

Then mom decided to make some tutus which she made me model.  I love to have my picture taken but come on!  I AM A DOG! She puts me in pink and purple?? It seemed to make her happy so I put up with it for a bit.

Finally she got up the energy to unpack – it was exhausting work I tell you!  I crashed out on the bed.  She makes me tired just watching her sometimes.

 I'm just glad my mom is home!  I love her sooooo much!

Countdown!!

Ohh yes I’m on the countdown! My mom will be home in 24 hours!

Today has been pretty slow since I’ve been watching the clock all day.

Where the heck is that time thingy on here??

Oh there it is! And umm yes I’m on the counter, sshhh don’t tell my Nana!!

So if anyone needs me I’ll be right here watchi... Oh what the heck Spanky!?!

I turn my back for 5 minutes and he steals my favorite toy. Good thing I’m firing all on cylinders today! He knows nothing gets past me. Especially when it comes to my toys, food, and treats. (Well okay to be fair that's really the only time I notice anything) I don’t mind sharing, but Dude! Ask first… sheesh

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!

Yep, That's right. It's my birthday!! I'm two years old today.
I'm not having a party till Friday though. Today I'm just going to lay in the window bench and soak up some sun with Missy and Spanky.
Don't worry I'll share pictures with you after my party on Friday.

My mom makes a mean Birthday cake. Last years birthday was a blast!

 

We had cupcakes last year. If you can't tell by these pictures, It was lip lickin good!

 

Spanky and Missy had a great time too! Well okay mostly Spanky...

 

Missy was being a bit of a snob like normal.. However that didn't stop us boys from having a blast!!

Oh man now I’m all excited for my party on Friday!!

I LOVE BIRTHDAYS!!!!

Wishes

Yes I realize I missed TGIWDF but I've just been really busy with thoughts in my head lately. Wishes you could say. I figured maybe if I get them out in the open I can clear my head a bit. Here goes.

I wish I had more Frenchie friends 
I wish I could get the theme song of Rocky out of my head
I wish my mom was home
I wish my Aunt Leanne was home 
I wish I had thumbs
I wish summer was here already
I wish I could go on a hike
I wish I could get more treats
I wish Bandit would stop picking fights with me
I wish I could catch one of the peacocks.. yum
I wish I was a little taller
I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her
Oh hell there I go again with songs in my head... Well at least the Rocky theme song is gone.

So there's a few of my random thoughts. Let those marinate. I'm exhausted now. Nap time.

Shout Out to My Ladies!

Alright so we are all aware that I’m a pretty big deal. Case in point: My hoard of ladies.

I assumed any haters reading this blog will want some proof, so here it is.

WARNING: Drooling may occur.. My ladies are HAWT!

One of my main ladies is my Aunty Kassy.

 

We’re tight. Like BFF tight.

She loves me unconditionally (except for that one time I pooped in her room, sometimes girls don’t understand us men. ppff last time I show her my gratitude.)  

We spend a lot of time together. When my mom is away at work Aunt Kassy lets me sleep with her. Her bed rocks! It’s warm, comfy and most of all she doesn’t seem to mind my excessive snoring. I’ve overheard my mom tell her that she wouldn’t wake up if a train hit the house (I hope I would? If a train does hit, it better not ruin ANY of my toys or disturb my food bowl, yes I’m quite protective over my possessions) Back to bragging about my ladies…

Along with letting me snuggle her we also do a lot of good ole fashion hanging out, and by hanging out I mean jamming out in her car!! She calls it her baby, but I’m sure she likes me more. Maybe? Anyways, her car is bitchin! I must say we look smoking hot in the Mustang. Stop light + Us = People staring. BIG TIME.

Doesn’t this car scream Bad ass?

 

I do get a bit frustrated with being vertically challenged in her car though.. As you can see I have a little bit of a hard time seeing over the dash.. Oh well I can still Jam out.

 

My other main lady is my Aunty Leanne.

I LOVE spending time with her. We do a lot of bonding. We go walking, roadtrips, watch movies, nap etc.

I just celebrated her B-day with her this last week and let me tell you, we had a GREAT time! Dinner, movies, road trip to Seward, and a long walk on the beach. No worries I obviously know how to show the ladies a good time. (feel free to take notes guy)

 

Oh and did I tell you she gives me the most delicious treats?  

Then there is Sheena.

She’s a hair stylist so her hair always smells so delicious! She’s also the mom of my favorite littles, so that’s obviously another reason why she’s so great.

She also massages my back. I crash out every time! 

 

My Aunt Netty lives in New Mexico so I don’t get to see her as much as I would like.

My mom keeps me updated by checking out the pictures she posts on Facebook.

Aunt Kassy was just down there a short while ago.. It’s kind of a touchy subject since she didn’t bring me with her..

My aunts are Baaaad! Seriously dudes don’t mess with them. They have guns and they will use them. 

 

Mandy and Aly.. Nothing to say here except one word. I adore them. Okay that was three.. close enough. 

 

I get to hang out with them a lot! They live in Anchorage so me and my mom go up there quite often. We have sooooo much fun! Mandy always keeps a ton of toys around for me to play with. I’m sure other people think she has them for her dogs, but I know the truth. All for me.

Aly is such a hotty! She always has the cutest clothes on too!! Very stylish.

Her and her Brother Mac are a blast to play with! I like to call it puppy bowling..

We love spending time outside together! We’re quite the trio

 

Then there is my biggest fan.. Carrie

She is beautiful and I love her.

She’s hot huh? She’s lives too far away though..

She lives in Arizona. I’ve never been there but I hear it’s hot!! So I suppose it makes sense that a hot lady lives in a hot place.

I’m keeping my paws crossed that she comes up this summer!! If she does I’m going to lick her face off! Not in a creepy silence of the lambs sort of way either..

Purely kisses.

So as you can see I’m a pretty lucky dude. These are only a small handful of my girls! Seriously I’m like the Brad Pitt of dogs.. Ladies just flock to me. I don’t question the mojo, I just go with it.
