Skunked!!!

What's the difference between a cat in the backyard, and a skunk in the backyard? (Furthermore, what is a skunk doing in the backyard?)

...Well, a cat runs away when you chase it, while a skunk stands its ground and sprays you in the face. (And I still have no idea why skunks live in the backyard.) Unfortunately, I learned this lesson the hard way. (And believe me, it was the hard way for everyone.) The stench of the skunk followed me through the house and seeped into every nook and cranny. The house stunk. The bathroom was unbearable, which was sad because I spent the entire time in the tub. Precious had to take two baths (while I just sat in the tub and watched), and then I had to take about seven baths with all sorts of crazy stuff: hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, soap, tomoato juice, etc. When I finally got out of the tub, I still stunk to high heaven. The humans decided to spray me with "Febreeze," and after that they sprayed me with cologne.

(I still stunk, but I smelled less skunky and more like any boy in an Axe commercial, or pretty much any junoir high schooler who uses Axe.)

Please note, I was sprayed by the skunk on Tuesday, and I still smell a little skunky today. The cologne has worn off, and I didn't get a bath today.

How We Spent the Weekend...

Mom's got a knack for always finding a toy wherever she goes. Whenever we go to the dog park - she always leaves with a tennis ball, whenever we go to Grandma and Grandpa Gooch's house - she finds a toy, even when we go on walks behind the golf course - she'll pick up a golf ball and carry it all the way home.
Anyway, she magically found this giant stuffed rabbit somewhere in the backyard, and we destroyed it while nobody was looking. That was fun.

Dad and human Mom decided that we neeeded our very own pool. Precious is more fond of the water than I am, but I get so hot I have to jump in no matter how mcuh I don't want my feet to get wet. the humans try to make the pool more fun for us, I guess. Sometimes they drop ice cubes in the pool and I get to chase after them and eat them when I find them. Since I don't like the pool that much, I sometimes wonder if they got it more for their own amusement - than for mine...

Our Family Portrait

I have two mothers: a doggie mom (the white one to the left) the humans call her "Precious," and I have a human mom, they humans call her "Meglet." I just have one Dad, named Craigers, (don't ask me how it all works). Craig and Megan are getting married soon, and they wanted us in the pictures that they send out to announce their wedding. We made it really hard for them to take any good pictures, because it was just too hard to get me, Megan and Precious to look at the camera at the same time. Dad didn't ever seem to have a problem striking a pose in every single picture. I think they decided they aren't going to try to take pictures with us in them anymore. It's a shame, because I look good. I liked this one the best. I thought I would share it

Our Lucky Day!

Those humans left us in the car, so I spilled water all over the floor...

That way they had to let us out, and oh boy, it was our lucky day!!

While the slave human was cleaning my mess, master walked us around outside, and suddenly, the best thing in the whole world happened!!! All these little humans wanted to pet us. I think that's the first time that many little humans have touched my head at the same time! It was the best moment EVER.

Ahh, it's time to get a tan!

We love the sun!!

Whenever it's time to go outside to go potty - we skip the potty part and head straight to our favorite lounge chairs. (Well, we both like the chair that the Mom's in, but they're both pretty comfortable.)

Mom has to be careful in the sun though, because she always gets a sunburned belly. I just have to be careful because I get really hot sometimes. Usually I have to finish my nap in the house.

It sometimes bugs us when the humans try to sit in our chairs. Seriously, there's plenty of grass for them.
