"Come on, let's go in the car ... " is our dog's favorite thing to hear. She runs right to where her leash hangs and wags her little tail like she is trying to pick up radio signals. We both get into the car, not before she has to sniff & bark at everything first, and make our way to the ... VET! Yeah, today was Marla's six-month check-up. She is so excited right up until we pull into the parking lot, then she knows. Although, today she wasn't as nervous as she usually is (maybe because no other dogs...

Yep! Yesterday was Marlita Chaqita Banana's birthday (that's her elongated nickname that has a clever song that goes with it). Little miss diva was also being bossy, and everything was about her her HER! Being 2 years old, I don't blame her. She did collect a lot of goodies for herself this year. The other night the parents, Summer and I, went up to Wal-Mart to see if we could find some stuff. Their clothing section is now non-existent, but we stumbled upon a better collar (one that snaps closed) that matches her sister's collar exactly. We grabbed her another little...

Just in case you were wondering Sookie is fine. She is a little miserable having to wear the cone (eCollar), but her operation went smooth, and I opted to purchased the extra pain medication for her, which is putting her to sleep for long amounts of time.

Sookie was acting as if nothing even happened, and wanted to get home and eat. She does look way skinner than usual, but I think...

Today is Sookie's big day, a sad day. She is getting spayed. We all knew it was coming, but she didn't which made it terribly worse to drop her off at Banfield. There I was filling out paperwork and signing my name, and some strange lady was holding her leash while guiding her to the back area. Before we left I did manage to get some pictures of her. Here she is at 5 months old in all her beauty. SEE THE PICTURES...

It's been rather cold here lately. The low for tomorrow is 24 degrees, and OMG is everyone freakin' out. Cold weather in Texas is a bigger news story among locals than the 9/11 incident. And, of course, news stations are running hard with the story - causing a frenzy! It's good to see the word getting out, because some people are completely dumbfounded when it comes to common sense. I'm not saying I won't take this seriously. Just another cold night over here. Yesterday, out of the blue, I decided to move stuff around and finally get the office desk set...
