We got out the push mower today!

We don't know where Mike the lawn guy has been, and since it hasn't rained much lately, we haven't made a big whoop-de-do out of locating him. But, we were looking around, and the grass has been growing in clumps, so mom decided to get out the push mower we unearthed after a big basement clean-up. I found it as fascinating as the snow shovel and the broom! That thing was just asking to be herded! Apparently, this interfered with moms little project, so I had to do a sit/stay over in the corner of the yard. I did pretty good controlling myself, and then Joe the mailman made an appearance on the street, so I got to "break" and go help him out. Mom decided the push mower did an OK job so we are going to keep it handy.

The BIG Wind

We had a big wind storm on Sunday night,and everywhere I go I am still reminded of it. Like the sticks, oh, my dog.. there are really cool sticks everywhere. I like a good stick to chew apart, and just about everybodys lawn has a great assortment. Mom lets me carry home my favorite ones when we go for a walk, and I've got a stash of really interesting ones down in the back yard.
At doggie school, on Monday, all the dogs were goofy. Me included. We all acted like we had never seen an agility course before, and none of us had any get-up-and go. All the 2 leggers were saying "whats wrong with the pups today?" and then somebody suggested that maybe it was from the wind storm and the crazy weather and funny clouds it brought with it.
Good thing my kiddie pool had water in it and stayed put, or it probably would be toast by now. BOL....

Week-end yummy.

Mom doesn't cook too much, in fact, she hardly ever cooks. So, when she has something going on in the kitchen, I just have to investigate. And OH, MY DOG, she was making some more of those frosty paws!

I figured it out as soon as those bananas went in that mixing bowl, and then the peanut butter. That got me really excited, so I got a little taste to "tide me over". That's the hard part, you gotta wait 'till the whole yummy concoction freezes...

So, by Saturday, they were ready, and after a little dip in my kiddie pool and a big run through the back yards, I had a nice bowl of frosty paws. Now, that's my kind of afternoon.

Joe, my mailman, always gives me a cookie when he brings the mail, so mom thought it would be nice if we sent some of the frosty paws home with him for his Bull Terrier, Sugar.
We were wondering if she would like them as much as I do, and then this picture was e-mailed to us. Looks like they are a big hit at Sugars house too!

Back to Doggie School - Yippee!

We drove back to Pittsburgh really late on Labor Day. I slept the entire way home. I was sooo tired. We rested up, mom went back to work, and then today, school started back up. Good to see my friends again..
We worked on speed circles. I am really speedy. Mom, well, she needs more work on that distance stuff... BOL

Labor Day and the wrap-up of Birthday Week.

I know, I stretched birthday week into a whole 11 days. But hey, you only turn 5 once! The grand finale was a picnic at Rocky's house where my buds and I had homemade frosty paws. Now, there is a treat. We got the recipe over at our friend Johann's blog
here's Rocky, me, Raymond, Rudy and Max enjoying the frosty treat!



I was pretty tired by the end of Birthday Week!
