The green grass is gone...

Mom says today is a "snow day". She was pretty excited about it too. I got up very early this morning and there was grass outside, then a couple of hours later, the grass was gone and there was some snow. After doing my business, mom brought me back in and she went to work. I was very surprised to hear her come home so soon - but she said she never even got to work. She was gone kind of a long time if she didn't go to work!

Just a little bit ago, we went back outside. First I made mom put on my coat and boots though...man there's a lot of snow...my belly was dragging or worse when I got off the sidewalk!

So we went outside and boy was I jumping to get into the snow...mom laughed and said I looked like a bunny hopping for a little bit!
Then I saw my favorite tree...but had second thoughts about venturing over to it for a visit...

And then I decided why not...and jumped right in...

Yup...that's right...in some parts of the yard, the snow was up to the collar of my coat!

So of course when we got back upstairs, I had to shake the snow out of my ears and all.

And like a good doggie, I wiped my feet before going back inside...


Where I promptly forgot to let mom take off my boots and coat before tearing all over the place! I'm very happy to be back in the house all warm and cozy.

The Brothers Reunion

Today was the big day. Mom said when I got up this morning that today was the day that I was going to get to see my brothers Mugsy & Capone. She was all excited about it, and I was too. I squealed in the car almost all the way to the park. Mom said we were going to go for a walk together today. I'll show you some pictures - lots of them came from Mugsy's mom - thanks Janine!

We got to the park first...

Then Mugsy arrived...

And the trio was complete when Capone arrived...
There was lots of sniffing and tail wagging!
And then we wanted to play....
But our moms said we should go for a walk. And there was a nice lake and trail there, so we were off...

And we even got to play in the lake a little bit!

And after the nice walk, we posed for some group pictures...We got along really well and have lots in common...we all wear harnesses, have brindle faces, we all snore and have swirlies on our butts. Mugsy & I even went to the same Canine College - though Mugsy went before me. Capone & Mugsy sing more than I do, apparently we all have this little grumble we do. Capone is much shorter than Mugsy and I - I'm the tallest. Capone weighs just a few pounds more than me, and Mugsy is much lighter. But we're definitely brothers - and I knew Mugsy & Capone as soon as I saw them! Hopefully we can get together again soon!
