Katie here.
So. Mama and daddy were away again and I spent a whole week at camp. But you know what? It wasn’t so bad. The girls love me there, I even got a kiss from one of them when I left. And they had to wake me up when mama came to get me, so I guess I can’t say I was all that stressed.
This is my backyard. Aren’t I beautiful?
Still, I milked it for all I could get on Friday when they brought me home. I talked a lot about how tough I have it, and I got a few extra treats because I made them feel guilty.
I’m very good at that.
And because mama felt really guilty about being gone a whole week she ordered up a couple days of snow for me. I love snow. Mostly, the past couple days I have been content to lay in front of my backdoor and watch it fall. That way I could keep an eye out for any marauding squirrels too. Sort of multitasking.
Time to get my feet in my snow!
But today the sun finally came out for a little bit and mama woke me up from my nap to ask if I wanted to go out and play in the yard. I wasn’t sure I really wanted to go, but she said she was going out with or without me.
Really? You’d consider going out there without me? I don’t think so mama!
I got this, mama!
I found a lot of really cool stuff. Like sticks that needed breaking up into small pieces.
Yep, this stick is history!
I even tried to break up a bigger stick but mama said I was being too ambitious and she was right.
This stick looks promising mama. Oh wait…it’s really long.
So I chased the snowballs she threw instead. I got quite wound up doing that.
I got it, I got it!!
Mama says all this new snow makes me look like I need to go to the groomer. I told her to pay attention and throw the snowball.
This one won’t get away from me!
I love this game, it’s my favorite thing in the whole winter world.
Did it go over there?
Mama’s not that good at throwing the snowball and taking pictures at the same time. You should see all the shots she deleted!
Well, obviously she should have deleted this one too! Geeze mama! Have you no decency?
But she still got a lot of cute images of me. I told her it’s not that hard to do but she says it’s not that easy either.
Yep, you can’t get any more cute than me!
All in all my little adventure in my own back yard was a whole lot of fun! I’m glad mama woke me up for a romp in my snow.
Throw it again mama!
Snow and supper, two of my favorite things. I hope it keeps snowing forever!
Talk later, your Snow Princess, Katie-girl.
Snow. The next best thing to supper.

Katie you look so beautiful! Glad to see you doing so well! Dakota will be 13 this month (God willing) and he has some arthritis that is giving him a hard time. So happy you love the snow so much!

Katie has been very lucky. She has some arthritis in her hip, but not bad. She still gets around pretty good. I hope Dakota feels good soon and of course he will get to 13!

Katie, sorry but I laughed out loud at the picture of your (ahem) backside. That’s a view similar to the one I see every single day. Dallas typically gets groomed pretty close in that area, but he hasn’t been in since Christmas — thanks for reminding me! Love your snow pictures — all we’ve got here right now is mud. LOTS of mud!
