for the bed!

Sunday the 20th

this morning we hiked to the pond!

beautiful... and muddy!

cute Hatley rain boots

it started raining around noon...

so perfect weather to put up the tree...

(yes i brought all the pup and barbie ornaments!)

watching the rain & football...

and making homemade chicken noodle soup...

PRICELESS!!!

Monday the 21st

today it pretty much poured rain all day.... this really isn't a bad thing...

i read in front of the fire....  kobe had dibs on the couch...

<<<---  bogey sat next to me...

rookie layed out in the rain...

(of course he did! )

Tuesday the 22nd

no way can pictures capture how happy these pups are running like the wind...

acres & acres of rolling hills and beautiful skies....

Wednesday the 23rd

today we took a super long walk...

(see Tuesday!)

this afternoon the weather was so nice i read all afternoon from the chair overlooking

Boonville, CA in the valley below...

Kobe was guarding the patio...

but Rook & Bogey were so tired

they didn't even wake up when i

got up to take their picture!

Christmas Eve

another

fabulous day!

(on today's hike i think they heard a dog barking 15 miles away)

nothing better than

being up here!

Christmas !!!

christmas morning...

one of the huge perks about pups...

they don't care about opening presents...

all they want is for me to open the gate!

can do!

sooo... a hiking we go...

and of course...

a stop by the pond !

then back to the

full on turkey dinner w/

all the trimmings!

Merry Christmas to all !

Saturday the 26th

this morning we hiked the hills off road...

then while we were waiting for the rain to start they played

the famous Bite Face Game

(kind of a good thing they have put straw mulch in front of the cottage...  in february they turned the area into a mud bog ! )

Sunday the 27th

well... it poured all nite...

tomorrow i have to leave The Buckeye

so today i took down the tree and packed up all the ornaments

while watching football...

the kids decided to

do their own version of

Rockin around the Christmas Tree!

well... we left The Buckeye...

but we only moved a mile or so...

to The Oaks...!!!!
