Happy Holidays!
Here is our annual e-holiday card. This year it features Motor! Why? Not because he's the cutest of the bunch, but rather because he is the only one who would cooperate! Enjoy:

Good news!
What with it being Christmas and all, we watched "Elf" last night. I love the part where Buddy is trying to make conversation with his brother Michael and says, "So, good news! I saw a dog today. Have you seen a dog?"
If not, here is your dog sighting for the day:

Car Trip!
It doesn't matter where you go, or how far away it is, it's ALWAYS exciting to take a car trip:

| Are we there yet!? |

Christmas is coming...
...and we finally got our tree up! This pic is actually from last year, but it's so rare that Sugar is out and about, I thought I'd post it anyway:

| Bah humbug. |

Severe Weather Alert!!!
Or, the possibility of a "snowflake sighting" per the weather channel. What a let-down. We love snow! See:

Paws for Reflection...
Motor is always doing hilarious things with his paws, especially while he's sleeping. Case in point:
The cutest, though, wasn't anything he did with *his* paws. It was when he fell asleep on Luna's paws!

| Thinking makes my head hurt. |

| I have a question. |

Motor all grown up...
Saw this picture in an email forward and realized it's Motor as he is now and as he will be all grown up:
I'll post this picture of him as a kitten, then, and compare it to one year from now when he's all grown up:

Foster Flashback: Fat Tina
This is Fat Tina - or was, when she was living with us:
She wasn't technically fat, she was just bigger-boned than her sister Brittany. Anyway, like all puppies, she spent a lot of time racing around like a nutcase and then crashing out in a hard-core nap:
But her favorite place to sleep was at the bottom of this bookshelf that sits in our kitchen:
Today, Fat Tina lives with a great family in Tennessee. Here is what she looks like now (i.e., not fat):
She turned out to be a real beauty. Miss you, Fat Tina (aka Ally)!
 |
| Hey, world! I'm Fat Tina! |

 |
| So tiring being this darn cute... |

| The perfect size shelf for a sleepy pup. |
 |
| What a pretty girl. |

Rainy Day
Sometimes it's hard to find that patch of sunlight. Here's a pic from a sunnier day:

Foster Flashback: Eddie
Eddie came to us after being displaced by the April tornadoes. Before him, I'd never had any experience with Great Pyrenees. Turns out they are very mellow:
And they like to snuggle:
But mostly they're just mellow:
As much as I loved having him around - mostly because our two shepherds are only snuggly under duress - he ended up going to a perfect home. Here he is fulfilling his Great Pyrenees destiny, watching over his own tiny goat herd:
Miss ya, Eddie!

| I'm a sleepy bear. |
 |
| Mwa! |
 |
| Zzzz. |

When no means yes...
Though an actual decision hasn't been made, it seems pretty clear Motor isn't going anywhere. And for those of you who think that was all my doing, take a look at this pair of lovebirds:
And the other day, I caught them doing this:

| Look how cute we are! |

Mmm, bones.
What dog doesn't love a good bone? These two certainly do:
That's why yesterday was so exciting! We passed out two grotesque (but 100% all-natural!) cow knuckles:
Even Motor got in on the bone action:

| Nom nom. |

One chill cat...
Because Motor is a cat, he likes to jump into containers and pretend he lives in a fort:
Yesterday he tried to squish into a shoe box on the edge of a table and ended up upending both himself and the box. Plan: A+. Execution: F.

See how they grow...
One of our former foster puppies is visiting for the week. Her name is Summer. This is what she looked like when we first got her:
This is what she looks like now, at about six months old:
True to her age, she is one sassy miss. And thanks to the shepherd in her, she specializes in back-talk.
I hope I get to see what she looks like when she's all grown up. I imagine she'll be just as spry and cute, only bigger.
*btw, she has the most adorable blond eyelashes that I've ever seen.

| I'm Summer! I'm a baby so I sleep a lot. |
 |
| I'm a teenager and FULL OF ENERGY! |

Motor Kitty
Meet Motor:
He found us in a parking lot in rural Tennessee. Now he is making a strong case to stay permanently, chiefly by being super cute and snuggly. Only time (and my ability to convince the Mister) will tell. In the meantime, the adorableness continues...
He is clever, this one.

| Meow. I am little and soft! |
