O Christmas tree 🎄 

So we finally finished decorating for Christmas and the tree was the final touch. Everyone wanted to help of course, dad put the tree up and made sure the lights worked, people pup helped by taking things off the tree that mom & I were putting on!! Lilly managed to get two ornaments on though, the first one is of course a cute basset hound..


The second is a very festive looking paw print..


Underneath the paw print you can sort of make out one of people pups favorite ornaments, a Mickey Mouse clubhouse hat that plays music 🎶. He had mom put on a few more Mickey Mouse ones also until it was pointed out that we needed more dog ornaments to even things out!! (Sadly dad really doesn’t have any ornaments, mom doesn’t like his color choices!!, he does get to put a few decorations up in his man cave as mom calls it!!) After all the decorating was over everyone was pooped especially Miss Lilly!!

Miss Lilly’s Birthday


So today is Lilly’s birthday, she is 6. Been kind of a rough month losing her big sis and all but she has been a real trooper, she has even volunteered to take less naps to pull some extra guard duty around the house! So besides all the extra cuddles & kisses she has been getting since we lost Molly she is getting even more today!! Plus she got a new Kong wubba that looks like a bunny!(two of her favorites combined in one!) Later we will celebreate with a birthday dinner of her choosing ( within reason of course). Happy birthday we love you bunches!!


Don’t even think about trying to touch my toy!!

Sweet Molly


Sorry I haven’t written anything in awhile but I needed to work myself up to it again. On November 6 we lost our beloved Miss Molly after a year of battling canine lupus and severe allergies. The day prior we had a very nice family day spent outside playing in the fall leaves and doing our normal stuff. She passed away during the night and we were not at all prepared for it( not that you can ever prepare for losing a furbaby). So we have all said our goodbyes and are moving ahead day by day. The tears are slowly turning into good memories and Miss Lilly is getting used to being the center of attention. Here are some favorite Molly photos to share and say goodbye. 


One of her favorite spots..


Run free angel Molly! 💕

Family photos…

So last week mom decided it was time to get our family photos done for the year. As usual nobody wanted to cooperate with this endeavor. However we did manage to get a few good photos during the process so we thought we would share some with you. Warning: the cuteness level of some of these photos is rather high so be prepared!! 


Miss Lilly strutting her stuff…


Miss Lilly photo bombing dad & brother..you can tell she is thrilled about sharing the camera with her little bro!!


Miss Molly decided to roll in the carefully placed leaf piles instead of being in the pictures…brother was able to persuade her to do one with him. (we think he had treats in his pocket)

Hope you enjoyed these as much as we did!!
