If it is Thursday, then it must be Thankful Thursday Blog Hop day. I am hopping this from PepsiSmartDog’s Smart Dog Blog. Pepsi seems like a well educated dog, so go check out the site.
Last week was Thanksgiving holiday in the US, and I know that I said thank you to all my readers and for all the wonderful things that I am thankful for, but the truth is, every day that I wake up I am thankful. I do not think that I ever stop feeling blessed by this wonderful life that I have. My great family, the animals that surround me, my great neighborhood, my friends, my health, my job…. I am just one very lucky person. But since this is an animal blog, I think that I need to look at it from their side. So let me ask some of them:
Louise: I am thankful that I have a family that loves me and protects me; a Mom who understands that I am afraid of a lot of things and doesn’t make me deal with the world any more than I really can. I am also really thankful for being able to get up on the den couch.

Sofie: I am thankful for my sister Louise, and for my cats (that I love to chase), all my toys, and especially for my lovey, Beaver.
Noel: I am thankful for the nice warm spot that Mom leaves in her bed in the morning, so that I can crawl in it and sleep the rest of the day.
Stella: I am thankful for a bed to hide under.
What are you thankful for today?

“You won’t mind if we try a little excavating under this railroad tie, Mom, would you?”
“There appears to be some weird creature under the grass and we really want to help it escape from underground.”

I thought I would share some pictures on what I am calling “Furry Foto Friday.” What is your cutest foto of your furry friends? Is your camera 98% animal pictures? Do you keep fuzzy ones too, just because you like what they were doing?

All the kids have gone back to school. The pawty is over. Now all that is left is the warm feeling of us all together, even if just for a moment. I really enjoyed my birthday. Mom made some pumpkin treats that were extra special nice. I got a new bandana and some toys. But I don’t want the world to go back to normal yet. I like basking in the afterglow of all the fun.

“Mommy, I know you have the bone under that blanket and you must give it to me. Just because you think that Sofie has chewed on it enough, that does not mean you should keep it from me. I can smell that you have it under there. I am bigger and should be able to chew on it longer. Mommy, are you listening to me?”

Sofie: “Mom, did you send the invitation?”
Mom: “Yes, Sofie Bear, they are on your Facebook site as an event”

Sofie: “Did you bake the special cookies I requested?”
Mom: “Yes, Sofie, they are cooling with the other pumpkin treats.”
Sofie: “Presents! Are presents hiding somewhere?”
Mom: “Patience, little one.”

Sofie: “Are my friends going to come to visit?”
Mom: “Yes, Sofie, Mojo and Amy will be here.”

Sofie: “I am so excited that I am going to be 2 years old on Sunday! Can we go for a walk just you & me.”
Mom: “Sounds like a plan, Baby”
