After countless days of dry, heat...a little bit of rain fell so the mutts went out to play, but only the Pink Princess would pose for the camera.
The Mickster won his first 1st Place trophy at BMX. He was so excited that both he and his cousin won!
People often laugh when they hear me affectionately refer to my kids as mutts. Well...they are half-breds after all. LOL They yap nonstop. They love to eat meat off the bone. They like to sit in our laps. They love to go for walks and rides. They would rather be outside running around, chasing each other than being stuck inside. You get the idea.
Well, they added another item to the above list...marking their territories. While Round Eye was in the shower this morning, the mutts had an altercation over a wooden block. Next thing I know, the Mickster wrote the following on HIS bedroom door and the Pink Princess started to write her name on HER door. "No btey (body) in my room" and "L". While his spelling is quite impressive...and I'm sure the Pink Princess' would have been as well had I not stopped her after the first letter...I was not impressed with this marking...with a marker no less.
Hmmm...they spent some time with their noses to the wall with hands behind their backs...too bad we don't have kennels! LOL Oh my!
This picture may explain why my mutts were howling and acting wild and crazy all last week!
Thanks for my uber cool telephoto lens, Dee! I love it!!!
Our mutts goofing around, hayriding and laughing with Mimmie, and the Pink Princess on her throne...
I couldn't resist posting these pictures. Aren't they the cutest little mutts you've ever seen? ;)
We spent the holiday weekend with good friends of ours. Their son Master D is one handsome fellow who the Mickster just adores and looks up to. Master D is just so good with him. It'll so sweet to hear him call the Mickster by his nickname BooBoo. ;) They get along great as well.
We ate, swam and played all day, and yes, even all night. Once the kids went down, which was really late, we stayed up and play Uno and Poker. Hmmm, not sure if those two card games are in the same league though. LOL It was great fun! I don't believe we made it to bed until 3AM
Here's a rare picture of the Pink Princess watching the fireworks with her daddy. She lasted all of 3 big bangs before heading inside to watch from the window afar. Here, the neighbor's little girl was just having a ball playing with the Pink Princess and Round Eye. Isn't that such a sweet picture of them hugging the big guy?
The mutts were invited to a swimming birthday party at 10:00...
then rushed out for their cousin's 6th birthday party at the gym by 1:00pm.

We were pooped!
I can't believe how different the mutts look just only 2 years ago. I just love these framed pictures!
We brought our mutts a portable DVD player that has a car mounting system so it's easy to install, and take in and out. But the super cool part is the dual monitor with dual headphone jacks. Now that's super wow!
Another favorite pasttime for the kids...cuddling with Daddy, especially after a warm bath...
One of the kids' favorite pasttime...plus it calms and winds them down before bed...
The mutts were trying out the new portable DVD player. They were so enthralled that I couldn't even get their attention for snack time. (They were watch "Elmo in Grouchland".)
The kids and I went to a friend's baby shower brunch at Lupe Tortilla in town. The restaurant has a few animal statues on their patio that was just so inviting for my mutts that they each had to try 'em out. The restaurant also has a sand pit out in front where the kids dug and played in between bites. Can you say grainy bites?
