baby

It's true, I'm nuts about kids!  It must be their smiling little faces!

This little man just tickles me!

Makes me want to tickle him right back!

OK, I know I'm teaching him a bad habit but it's just too much fun!

Mama and Me

Mama and me did our annual summer photo shoot. Another year better!

I love kissing!

School has started up and I miss her she she goes to work but am so glad that my dad works form home and I'm seldom alone with the kitties.

I can keep an eye out !

Mama says school started out super busy again this year and she has had little time for blogging or facebook time.  It's just work and doggy play time these days.  I'm good with that.

The minute she gets home from work I howl my joy and off we go for a walk and some fetching of either the ball or the Frisbee.

Fall is in the air, berry picking and frost on the grass already in the early morning. 

We even had a dusting of snow on the mountain tops this week...uh oh!

I has been a glorious summer so we can't complain.

I'll play in the leaves as they fall and soon there will be snow to play in!

It's all good.

Check out this cool Raven fountain mom got...we call them Heckle and Jeckle!

flowers, kids and lake time...

The fun never ends!  We continue to have a fabulous summer!


Flower bring bees and bugs, not my favorite.  I snap at them routinely.


Mama says she can't tell which is more beautiful, me or the flowers.  I got a little miffed at that!


Do you have trouble deciding???


Now look at this pose, how can I not be the most beautiful?  I am really trying here.


What I find beautiful is a child that loves to throw a ball for me...

This one is perfect!

This one works out well for me also...


But mama, she can be a tease!

Throw the dang thing will ya?


Oh, things I have to put up with!


Do you see the pleading in these blue eyes???


OK, how about a raspberry for you!

.

Happy Happy Days!

WE ARE HAVING A FABULOUS SUMMER, SUNSHINE AND TEMPS IN THE HIGH 70's

 BLUE SKIES ...

 COLORFUL FLOWERS...

WHAT MORE COULD WE ASK FOR?

I LOVE THAT MAMA HAS SUMMERS OFF TO SPEND WITH ME.  SHE GOES BACK TO WORK ON THE 13th  AND I AM LIVING IT UP TILL THEN.

 PICKLES IS HELPING ME WITH GROUNDS PATROL TODAY

HOPE YOU ALL ARE HAVING A GREAT SUMMER TOO!

Oh Brother!

Welcome Sydney!  I am so glad you have moved up here to Anchorage Alaska!




( Ryker and Sydney are half brothers and both come from mama Gracie in Vancouver Washington.)

Here is my daddy Joey...

And this is Sydney's daddy Ziggy...and my mom.  Ziggy is smaller than my daddy.

I am from the first litter in 2009 and Sydney the second litter in 2010.  Do you see the family resemblance?


Looks like we will be fast friends!




We share many of the same mannerisms


It is wonderful to have my half-brother here to play with. 

 I can't wait so see him again!!!


I will even try to share my stick with him...


Till we meet again little brother!
