I'm so Honored!

I'm honored, and humbled, to receive this most wonderful award...
... from Ruger and his mom, Annie, at Ruger's Crew!

Now, there are a few Rules that go with this award;

First, and formost:   I want to thank Ruger,  and his sisfur Izzy, for thinking of my bloggy.  When sumbody thinks of your bloogy..THEN gives you an award..well golly, it just gives a warm fuzzy in the tummy!

Let me tell you a little about Ruger.
Ruger started his bloggy last May, shortly after his other sisfur Neve went to the Rainbow Bridge. He was lonely, and probably being a couch potato, so his Mommy (Annie)  decided he needed an outlet.   Thus, a bloggy was born!

Ruger, an Australian Cattle Dog, lives in New Zeland! I ask you folks, why isn't he a New Zeland Cattle Dawg???   Anywho, he lives with his Mommy and Daddy...and his NEW sisfur Izzy in that BeaYouTeaFul land Far..Far...Far...Away from the U.S.A.  Lucky for us, we stay in touch with Facebook and our bloggy's!!
Ruger is a great guy and iffin you haven't met him, you better hop over to his neck of the woods and say howdy..HERE!

I'm supposed to pass this award on to five of my furiend's
 five with less than 200 followers..
so..as I make my travels through the blogosphere
    and find bloggy's with less than 200 followers.
 I will ask them to stop by and pick up the award!


You know, my Mom has a hard time following RULES!
She did that last time then felt bad for all of my other furiends....
and, cuz this goes to bloggy's with less than 200 follower's...
she thinks this needs to be given to Maybe Just a Few More than five!!

Thanks again to the Ruger's Crew!

I am IT!! I was tagged!

I was tagged by a good furrend Garth Riley!  Wow was I excited but totally overwhelmed when I saw what the requirements are to play this extremely fun game!

Mom said she used to play Hide and Seek and "Tag, Your It"..was what you didn't want to hear, butt this game is different and I need to answer sum questions before I tag sumone else.......

So, here goes!

1.)  Describe yourself in 7 words......
Handsome
Well, my Mom thinks I'm handsome!!
Intelligent
Just don't ask me to do a trick!

Tolerant
Geeesh, the woman is always dressing me in costumes!


A Bronco Fan
Don't ask me to Tebow, remember I don't do Tricks!
Sumtimes a LITTLE Lazy
MOM, can you move the blanket up a little bit more?

Silly
I love my Ratties!
And Last, butt not least,...

Head Strong!
I want to do what I want, when I want to do it!
When Mom took me on this walkie, I had to show her who is the BOSS!!
See my EVIL eye!!
When I decide the walk is over...IT IS OVER!
She had to carry me 1/4 of a mile....
She wasn't to happy butt I thought it was funny!
2.)  What keeps you up at night?
       Any movement. For instance, if my pawrents move in bed...I get a little bit startled and have to let 
       them know how I feel (with a tiny little growl... grrr) about this interruption in my sleeps!  
       Also, if the paper man comes too early..I hear him and give big Barks!!!
        Other than those two things, I sleep all night long!

3.)   Who would you like to be?
        I have been me for seven years and I kinda like me this way!  
4.)    What are you wearing right now?
         I wear the same 'ole thing every day, unless the woman is dressing me in a costume!
         I wear my BeaYouTeaFul furrs that are white, black and a color my mom calls apricot!
         I have on my lovely red collar and red EZ Walk harness!
5.)     What scares you?
         Now you are getting pawsonal..what if the ladies are reading this?
         If I must answer.....EVERYTHING!
         Any sudden movement, loud noise, car rides, thunder, lightening.. the list can go on and on!
         Because I'm a special kid (adopted), Mom doesn't know my past history..so we just go with the    
         flow and work around all my little quirks!
Here I am trying on my Thundershirt!
6.)  The best and worst of blogging?
      There are so many good things about blogging but the very bestest thing is all the furriends I've 
       made!  Mom says the Pet Blogging Community is the best place in the World!
       The worst part is the time it takes....Mom is on the computer when she should be cleaning  my
       palace!
7.)   What was the last website you visited?
       The last site was Sweet William's bloggy..his Pawrent was having troubles wiff a TROLL visiting..
        that can not be allowed!
8.)    What is the one thing you would change about yourself?
         Nothing...nuff said!
9.)    Slankets, Yes or No?
        No,
Give me a blanket any day!
9.)    Tell something about the person who tagged you..
         Garth Riley from the World According to Garth Riley tagged me!
         Garth,  a very talented English Labrador Retriever, is a therapy dog!   As a therapy doggy he
        visits medical centers ( like the place my Mom works) and visit patients!
         He has BeaYoutTeaFul golden furrs
         I bet the ladies are pawing at his front door!
         The most impawtant thing Garth did recently....IS....his Third Place win..in MangoMinster!!
         Yepper's he won third place in Adventure Animals!!   Congratulations Garth!!

Now, I have to tag 8 furriends to play......

Blizzard of 2012

It seems like the Weather Forecaster's have finally figured IT out! When they say we will get a dumper...we get a dumper!  That is what happened Thursday-Saturday early morning!

If Nature call's, you try to find a path well traveled !


Beautiful scenery!




Love the taste of snow..yummy!



I could stay here all day!





Somebody wanted to keep the beer chilled! 

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

Winston
