Did you miss me?

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a long time! I have lots to catch you up on.

Mom was away on a trip to California. She went to something called a vineyard.

Then she went to San Francisco. She stayed at a hotel on the ocean. It was pretty but she wished I was there to play in the water.

Look at all the swimming possibilities!

Before she left she took us hiking! Uncle Ian and Aunt Sandy came along. They took Maya, Murphy and Riley, too!

They are all sissies from New York though! No one wanted to swim with me!

Riley warned Ellie how cold it was!

So she just wanted to play in the leaves.

Afterwards we had to have baths. Then we took a nap on the couch. Mom didn't even get mad that we were semi-wet because we're SO cute!

Good news! Murray got adopted! He went to his new home last Saturday. I can't say I'm going to miss him very much. He was too rambuctious and always tried to eat out of my food bowl.

But we still have Kate! Mom got sick of her laying on the bookshelf and knocking the lamp down so she let Kate use Ellie's new dog bed...


I don't think Ellie is ever going to get to lay in it again!

Ellie was pretty sad when she saw what happened. She was even more upset when mom took her to the vet to get spayed yesterday! It was a quiet night without her. I can't wait to pick her up today!
