HEY!!!!

Did you guys know if you go outside during an ice storm, and refuse to come in for like a half hour or so, until your mom comes out and slides around and finally gets you on an leash and makes you come in, that you will Sparkle ?

Mom Folded!

Mom still likes her 35mm camera the best, but, we never seem to get the pictures developed. We still have pictures of me sheep herding (last spring) sitting in little cans waiting to go to the photo shop. So for my blog, she got a little stupid 20 dollar digital camera (which is why all of my pictures, up until now, have been CRAP) because, like I said, she likes the 35mm camera. So, she would spend all kinds of time editing and fixing up the pictures from the stupid little cheap camera when she could of been doing something with me!
Finally, she went and got herself a decent digital camera - don't even ask her how she likes it, because we all know... she likes the rapid fire 35mm camera the best.
Anyhow, we tried it out today. Here's a picture of me.



Here's a picture of Laura and Josie having some kind of a kitty love fest..



me again!

Steeler Super Bowl Pep Rally at the Pittsburgh Zoo !

Mom has been a docent/volunteer at the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium for about 15 years now. She can get herself involved with some pretty interesting stuff over there, so I have to share her with the zoo animals every now and again. But, she usually comes back from that place with some interesting smells attached to herself. My cats, Laura and Josie, really like it when she has been around the lions and tigers. As for me, I get pretty excited about elephant smell. And sometimes... she even comes home with kangaroo poo on her shoes! Anyhow, here is the zoos u-tube page. It has some pretty cool videos on it, but right now the big excitement is the Steelers Pep Rally , so, take a look.

Inauguration Day!

GO STEELERS!

My snowfall on Saturday night turned out to be pretty darn good.
Here's a "run with the ball" I sent over to Troy Polamalu on Sunday afternoon via ESP!

This wasn't it.

The snow wasn't quite what I had hoped for, and I certainly wasn't wishing for 5 degrees for a high, and a wind chill of minus I don't even know what, but what does it matter, anyhow? - OH,MY DOG - it was too cold even for me... I like it cold, but, in my entire 5 years I never felt anything like this!! I did go out for a little bit on Friday, and ran into Joe, who gave me a cookie, which I grabbed and then ran off to eat it. - Mom says I should be more polite and at least stick around to say thank-you, but he brings the good kind from a special bakery and I forget to be polite.

On Saturday it was still really, really cold. I was getting antsy. But, luckily, mom had me scheduled for an agility lesson with my half-sisters two legger Aunt Lainey! So,since I couldn't do much outside, that was a really fine activity. And, I got to visit with my sis Kyrie. Here is a picture of us after my lesson. Mom says she is sorry about the quality, but its hard to photograph black doggies, so she touched it up a little so you could see our beautiful faces!

Just as we were getting home from my visit and lesson last night it started to snow again. So far today, I have just run out quick to pee, but it seems warmer, and we did get more snow, so we are getting ready to go out and see if this is that good rompin' snow I have been waiting for. I'll let you know.

Maybe this will be it....

We just haven't had a snowfall this winter that's to my liking. We have had tons of freezing rain, and slush, but none of that good rompin' snow. The kind that flies all over the place when you run in it. Parts of western PA have had good snow. My friend BabyDoll got good snow last week.. but all I got was good slush. Anyhow, this is what it looked like in my play yard after mom got home from work last night. So I'm hoping when we get up tomorrow (later on today, actually - we keep funny hours because of that work thing mom does) there will be nice fluffy, deep snow.
