Nicknames Include:  Skuttlebutt, Dobby, B, Ole Blue Eye, Bruce (after the mechanical shark from Jaws), Suzy Snorebush, DL Snoogley,  Turd Ferguson...tis no surprise she has selective hearing...she isn't sure what her actual name is

Hobbies Include: Snoring, breaking my collar and running away from my Grandma, annihilating any toy in a 50 mile radius, pooping on the very top of large snow banks, stalking my parents when they are in the kitchen, eating peanut butter out of kongs, chasing the neighbours dogs and napping

Dislikes:Not being allowed on the couch, cars that drive by really fast when we are walking, the vacuum, dogs that don't want to play with me (what is up with that?), when my parent's try to go to bed early/sleep in, and when my Dad wont let me chew on his socks or shoes.

Happy Family Day

From my little family to yours, happy family day wishes!

Happy hangover from Valentines Day day!

G and I have never been crazily over demonstrative with Valentines day.  We are both big card people, but we have never been of the "expecting a BMW or diamond jewelry type"  (granted both those things are out of our budget but I digress) Last night I babysat this little monkey so my brother and sis in law could take in a flick (Die Hard is apparently for lovahs)

When I got home my favourite ice cream (Moose tracks!)  was hidden in the freezer for me Perfect ending to a most lovely day!   I thought I would post three fun E-cards I received and sent yesterday because I heart love.

A cute one G sent featuring snugglebum when she was a puppy with a decidedly more smushy face.

This one which just makes me smile because of how much I love Harry Potter (not sure where original came from)

And finally:

Grumpy cat hearts valentines too.  From here
