We Spoke Too Soon!

In our last post we said we hadn't had any snow. We made the snow gods mad.

The snow started falling yesterday afternoon and surprised the whole area. Everyone panicked. Traffic gridlocked.

Deb & Big Guy had tickets to the opening show of Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles. It took them 2 1/2 hours to drive 15 miles to downtown Portland (and that was using Big Guy's secret knowledge of back roads...if not, they would still be sitting on I-5 which quickly became a parking lot!) They arrived one song before intermission.

Freckles watched the snow from the warmth and safety of her cave. She was not phased by the snowstorm chaos. She still expected her carrots and lettuce to be delivered to her door on time. She was not disappoiinted.

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!



Here is a snowflake that we made for you for the holidays. We haven't had any snow around here this year (and are we ever happy about that!) Neither of us really like the snow very much. No, we haven't fallen off the face of the earth. Deb's been a little under the weather (pun intended!) and hasn't been on the computer much lately, but we'll be back in gear, up and running, fully operational, and here to serve you after the new year.

In the meantime we wish you all a very happy holiday season. May you and your friends find joy and cheer in 2010.

A Stinky Layer of Fluff



Freckles:

The creature came to my home with a strange object. This object looks soft and flexible. At first I thought it might be another fluffy creature that the creature had destroyed. But the way the creature shakes it convinced me that it is only a loose layer of fluff that was, hopefully, never alive.

The creature brings it to the humans, standing in front of them and looking at them with his big sneaky eyes until he has hypnotized them into grabbing it and playing tug of war with him.

He tried his silly game on me, but I cannot be hypnotized. Finally, he had to go off with his stinky layer of fluff and play by himself.

Ha-Ha! I am victorious once again!

Minding My Own Business



Freckles:

I was just minding my own business, eating, sleeping, begging, rearranging stuff, eating again, etc., when suddenly this creature invaded my world. It had ears like a bunny, but it was like no bunny I had ever seen.

I hopped into my cave and turned my back to the doorway, ignoring the creature and hoping it would go away. 

It didn't go away. It jumped right up to my doorway and tried to attack me!

It's Deja Vu All Over Again!

Deb:
A couple of people guessed correctly...the pictures Freckles posted were of our friend's Papillon dog, Figs, who spent a week visiting us.


Figs is a great dog. But, Freckles was not being a great hostess, especially since Figs stole her carrot and ate it in front of her. Those who have followed our blog probably just had a feeling of deja vu. Our dear friend Scrambles also ate Freckles' carrot. This is getting to be a pattern!


Here's what Freckles looked like when watching Figs with her carrot:

An Invading Guest

Freckles:

We've been pretty busy over the Thanksgiving Holiday. Hope everyone had a yummy meal and a wonderful time with all of their relatives and friends.

We would have had a great time, except we were invaded! What kind of rabbit is this????

A hint



Another hint!
