My Aunt and Uncle just got back from Europe, and from England they brought me a stuffed corgi...it's wearing a crown and purple cape! It's so adorable I can barely stand it. Now to put it somewhere the real ones won't get a hold of it...I'm sure they'd love to "play" with the new pup!

We took our first overnight trip in almost 11 years this weekend and that meant the boys went on their first overnight trip also. We found a pet friendly hotel and off we went on a 5 hour road trip. They always do well in the car but I was worried (since they are both big on barking at unknown noises at home) how well they would do in a hotel. They make such an impression everywhere they go that the minute we went to walk through the lobby people wanted to pet them. They have met very few… Continue

Sorry I haven't been on much this week with updates, things just looked so bad I couldn't bring myself to type it.

I am trying to be strong for my kids (who are stressed out) but every time I look at him I just want to… Continue

Wow, seems like forever since I've been here. Life has a way of getting busy and things get lost in the tussle. Sunny made it through his first winter and loved it. He likes to play "snow plow" just like his big brother. It's so hard getting those two inside, they love the snow so much. Both are doing so well but it amazes me how two full brothers out of different litters can be SO different. Zim always seems like such a grown up and Sunny (who just turned a year old last Thursday) still seems… Continue
