Stella Turns Goat

 Yep, just another quiet weekend at our place.

 Fun with mum.

 AND THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Friday night,

I ate a block of 200 gms of chocolate and survived!

No joke, I did.

Went totally hyper for six hours,

mum made me drinks litres of water,

the family are positive I am part goat!

Hehehe.

Next morning I woke back to my old self.

Phew!  I know, I know, its poisonous to us dogs.

I stole it from the cupboard and I promise I won't do it again.

Ever!

I'm calling her goat girl from now on!

Sometimes she scares me!! 

 Hey Rory, is mum gone to buy more chocolate?

Hope your weekend was a little quieter than ours,

No worries, and slobber, Rory 

My Big Slow Walk, and Slobber

Hi Everybuddy, on Sunday I went on a pretty big walk, but Mum and Dad were very careful and I was off lead the whole time.  I just plonked along after Stella and stopped whenever I wanted to.  It was heaps fun.  I only walked halfway and then my brother picked me up in his car. 

 Come on Mum and Dad, hurry up.

If you look at the undergrowth along the track

you will notice how dry everything is by the end of Summer.

Notice the manky big puddle on the right.

I ran through it a couple of walks ago.

I was stinky and slimy.  Bath time?  You betcha.

Nearly at the end.

Doesn't matter where you go, there's always someone 

who doesn't care and litters.  Grrrrr.

More dry paddocks.

After Rory went home, on we walked.

Oh, wondering why I am on lead now?

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Had to have a quick roll in some horse poo.  Mmmm.

Can somebody please help me? 

 I'm supposed to be a mascot. 

 

 Eewwwww.  Rory!!!!!!!

See ya everybuddy.

No worries, and slobber (hehehe)

Valentine's Day with Abby & Jed

Hi Everybuddy, dog oh dog was I excited to see Abby arrive in Oz.  Jed too of course, he's a good bloke, but it was his Sissy, Legal Beagle Extraordinaire, who I was hanging out to see.  

We picked them up from the Airport and brought them straight home. 

We took them sightseeing near our town.

This is the Giant Rocking Horse.  It is part of a toy factory.

It's a big attraction for families.

  Dad decided to fire up the BBQ and wanted to make Jed and Abby welcome.

 

  

We invited a few of the locals over too.

Hey, is that Jed and Abby? 

 Mummy, how come they talk funny?

Don't be rude bub, they're friends from America.

G'Day Mate.

After a feed of snags, chops, bacon and chicken wings, mum whipped up this pavlova dessert.  Gee she's good.

 

 

After lunch, I took Miss Abby to my place.  Mum is away working on The Ghan, but being the responsible mum she is, I had been tutored a while ago and knew exactly how to treat a lady.   Also Jed had a little chat and told me his sissy was a good girl.  I agreed, she sure was.  We watched the new Aussie movie  Red Dog.  Abby loved it and had a bit of a cry at the end.  It was ok though, I had tissues ready and a shoulder to lean on.

The day seemed to zoom by and before we knew it Jed was flying home to make sure his mum was ok.

 See ya mates

 

and Abby was off for a bit of R&R  travelling on the Ghan with Lisa, going to Darwin and then to Sydney.  

See ya Uncle Jed and Aunty Abby.

We loved having you here.

No worries, and love, Stella and Rory

To Abby,

I had a great time sweetie pie.

You are the best!!

Love and smooches, your Aussie boy, Tyler X X

P.S.  Sorry if we don't comment this week on all your blogs, we are having a blast reading all the entries for Mango Minster 2012 and there doesn't seem to be enough time to fit everything in.  Love Carol

 

 

Be My Valentine?

Sometimes I can be a bit of a clown!

Sometimes I can a deep thinker.

And then there are times when I like to dream about one special girl.

One red rose for one special lady.

Abby, will you be my Valentine?

Abby, the party of the second part, accepts Tyler's, the party of the first part's, offer for Abby to be Tyler's Valentine and agrees, as consideration in full, to accompany Tyler on a Valentine's Day Date.

Oh Abby, I love it when you talk legal to me!

Hey Uncle Jed, if Abby and Tyler are going on a Valentine's Day Date, why don't you come over and keep us company.

 Please???

Pretty please???

 What the heck, why not!

Look out Oz, here I come.

Abby, are you finished packing yet?

What?

Just one more bag?  Oh dear dog.
See you soon pups.

See you soon Aunty Abby and Uncle Jed

We can't wait till Tuesday.

No worries, and love, Stella and Rory

 See ya soon mates, Tyler

Wonderful Wednesday - The Good Life

Dad - "Why are you letting him sleep on the lounge?"

Mum - "I don't know.  He just looks so comfy.  Stella gets to have the pillow all to herself and they both can't fit on it anymore.  Oh ok, ok then, its because I'm too weak to make him get off.  I'm probably in early stages of dementia, I don't know.  

Rory - Hehehehe

Stella - Hehehehe

Rest of the family -   Mum is definitely getting soft in her old age!

 

Wonderful Wednesday.

No worries, and love, 

Stella and Rory

 

Grade Two here we go.

Hi Everybuddy, we started Grade Two today.  It was fun and I was just the best boy.

Sure he was.  He was a total sooky la la.  Mum had to take him cause he was being silly with Dad.

I most certainly was not!  I just thought Mum would prefer me to you hehehe.

She does not, she prefers me.  Muuuuuum who do you like the best?

We love you all the same and if you ask again, I'll send you both to the dog house.

Oh oh, Stella we better do as she says. Ok Rory, lets not stir her up again.  It was fun though, hehehe.

Here's me.  I like dog school.

 

   

Woops, stopped too far in front.

He wants us to do what?

Ok, lets go Mum.

Good drop.

Stella is a bloomin show off.

Rory conserves his energy.

Howdy James.

We concentrated the whole time.

After school we went home.  We had a play and some treats for being good.

Hey Mum, can I have that treat now?

Ok, ok, I'll try and wait.

                                                                                                                     
Stella 6 mths, Rory 4 mths.

Stella 9 mths, Rory 7 mths.   

And yes, he does still fit in his kennel.

We're having a blast with dog school.  
See you all soon.  
No worries, and love, Carol
