I wasn't doing anything!

"Max, what are you doing out by the fence?"



A hole under the fence? I don't see a hole under the fence!



Oh, you mean that hole! Who put that hole there? It wasn't me!

Look at all the fun!

Max had a great time at OSU's Renaissance Festival. It was overcast, but the weather was good for most of the day.



First, Max stole Patti's chair.


And then Carolyn came to visit. He decided that it was time for belly rubs.


And he had to get even more comfortable.


Next, it was time for lunch and a strategically place chair really helped. He was able to beg his way to some steamed rice and carrots.



Finally, it was time to hang out with some friends. This was the best arrangement we could get. They couldn't all fit in the same chair, but believe me they tried!

Please let me outside

I want to help Jeff mow the grass.



I promise I'm not going to go EAT the grass.

Do you want something?

You should know better than to bother a boy and his bone.

I Love Snow!

Can you tell?

The Spotless Dog

So is Max spotless? We had a mobile groomer called The Spotless Dog come and groom Max today.

Here is a before picture



And here is an after picture



They did a great job and cost less than our usual place. We'll definitely have them back the next time we need to have Max groomed.

A date with Barney?!

I just found a website called My Date with Barney.

Kenzie, you are a really cute girl and I want you to know that if it doesn't work out with Barney, I'm in Columbus, Ohio, on the way to D.C. and I'll go on a date with you!

We could take a long walk in the snow


And share a peanut butter ice cream cone


What do you think?

A new extended family member

Here is a picture of the newest member of our family. Luckily she doesn't live with us! Her name is Ginger and she is a Cairn terrier.



She won't leave me alone! I'm not really sure how to feel about her.
