Lookout Leonardo DaVinci.....

......here comes my momma. 

So, yesterday my momma went to a fun-fundraiser for Dachshund Rescue of Houston.   A whole bunch of doxin lovers went to a place called Painting With a Twist, and all created a beautiful (?) Doxin-themes painting.   The creative juices were enhanced by da wine and snackies the ladies had whilst learning to paint.  

Painting With a Twist donated 75 percents of the fee to Dachsund Rescue. (good thing.....cuz they prolly wouldn't have made too many greenpapers selling the final art )

What a fun time!  And everyone left with a doxin painting, made with love (and wine)

Unfotunately, I must report that my momma will be returning to her office job today.    Her aspiration to become a full-time Artist don't appear to be an option......

A picture says it all....

To summarize what we are doing lately, I use this foto to illustrate.     In summary, a lot of NOTHING.   Sigh

We are counting da hours and minutes until da big Tax DeadLion is slayed once again.  Until then, we just hangin out (all bored and stuffs) watching my momma come and go (mostly go) at all hours.  Sigh.

I am missing you ALL........butt will be back after April 17th. (yeppers, da evil Deadlion is two days longer this year.  Sigh, again)

Remembering Ronnii

Tonight we are lighting a candle in honor of the beautiful Ronnii.

We will miss you dear furrend..........butt will not forget you!

See you later, at the Bridge
Love and hugs,
Minna Krebs, Pickles, Ditto and Rooney
and da momma, Cheryl

Kiss ME .....

......I'm Irish!!!!

Wordlessly Wednesday

Cousin Socks dropped by fur a visit....and a few pawtinis!

About New Furrends......

My momma told us that her found a new furrend at her office.    I was glad to hear about this, cuz her could always use new furrends  (being as crackers as her sometimes is.....her can use all da furrends her can get)

Then her comes home with a foto of this new furrend...............we were STUNNED!!!

(Warning......you may need to cover your eyes.   Fotos not suitable for young pups or kittehs)

Can you believe it???  
Her went on and on bout how cute and friendly and (sigh) photogenics he is........

Butt we were not amused......

What next???   Her making furrends with da Possums???   Nope.  That will NEVER happen......

















Now speaking of REAL Furrends......We recently met a new Blogger furrend.  (and we have much better taste in choosing our furrends.)


His name is Reuben.   He is a dachshund who lives in North Carolina and he has a Typewriter!   He also has aspirations to have a very important job...  He totally cracks us ups........


If you don't already know Reuben.......go stop off at his blog.....Floppy Tongue Joy  and get to knows 
him.


PeeS.....You may notice the look of my blog is kinda changing......my momma got started re-designing this place......but then her got distracted (easily happens), and stopped in mid-design.    sigh.

Shopping Trip Fiasco

Pickles here, reporting to you from my local Houston-Blogville, Texas Petco store.

I went with my momma for a quick trip to pick up a few doggie necessaries.  Usually, these trips are enjoyable, and I score a 'Pickles Only' treat, that I eat on the way home (so MinnaK etc don't find out)

Who knew, this trip, her would spot the pink doggie travel bag, and decide to try it out.

This is NOT a good look for me

Ohmygosh.........her actually ZIPPED me into this thing!!!

I just hope no one I know sees me in this predicament

I WAS NOT AMUSED.

Pickles, here, signing out............help............

Hats of Hope for Miss Judi

Today, we join paws with our furrends to honor the Blogville Hat Haberdasher  Miss Judi

(a most wonderful fellow TEXAN too!)

We are sad to hear she is not feeling well, and is waiting on some very skeery test results right now

Butt, we are wishing her the very best......and hoping for SPEEDY wellness

cuz we Bee-leeve in Santa.........and we Bee-leeve in miracles!!

Dr. Seuss Birthday Challenge

Today, we are taking part in the Dr. Seuss challenge.........  I helped my poor momma  with making this Seuss-like rhyme (cuz we all know her brains don't always work so well, especially when her has to really put them to work!)

Who would put such a hat on a dog?

Unless its to celebrate Dr. Seuss on my blog 

One dog

Two dog

Three dog

Four

Plus a crazy donkey

And my momma wants MORE!

One blog

Two blog

Three blog

Four

We love living in Blogville

All my furrends I ADORE!

To Dr. Seuss, I say...

Happy Birth-day

From Minna K.

Thanks to Amber DaWeenie and Zoolatry fur hosting this fun event!!!   

Today is Leap Day!

Leap Year - February 29th!  

What do ya mean, its not THAT kinda Leap?

Let's Go Racing, Boys

Today is the Daytona 500...the first race of the 2012 Nascar season !!!

WooooHooooooooo!

This is a wonderful painting that a dear human friend had made fur my momma back in 2004, with all of her dogs at the time, acting as da Pit Crew for Mr. Jimmie Johnson's 48 car!!!   Sadly, everyone is now at da Bridge, except fur Brudder Rooney and Sissie Ditto (they are the tire carriers in the front of the painting)

Of course, we will be screaming and yelling and generally making a fool outta ourselves for Mr.  5-Time (aka Jimmie Johnson) and da Lowe's 48 car.  

Jimmie Johnson is our favorite driver.........because he is a 5-time champion and grrrreat driver (and most importantly, because my momma think he is soooooooooooo handome.  Hubba~Hubba)

Butt, we are also excited to be watching Smoke (Tony Stewart), Mr. Jeff Gordon, Mr. Cousin Carl Edwards, Mr. Happy Kevin Harvick, etc etc etc etc........

The New Year doesn't begin in January.......

It begins in DAYTONA!!!!!

Can you tell we are race fans????heeeheeeee

A Bloggers Dream Come True

Look at what my momma got at her office this week.........

THREE...yes, count 'em....THREE monitors to work with!!!!

Think of ALL the Blogging her can do, with three monitors.
We can be posting, and reading one blog....and loading up another to read, all at the same time!!!   WOWSER!!!


One small problem..............doubt her Boss-man had Blogging in mind, when he bought them.....sigh.

For K

So many other blogs posts have already beautifully expressed their support and caring  and described the strength we have all learned from KB and K.   It is hard to add any of our own words, that have not already been posted by others in Blogville, and in a much better way....

We did find these quotes that seem to so clearly remind us of KB and K, and the special relationship they have...........

Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring—it was peace.

Milan Kundera

It is true that whenever a person loves a dog he derives great power from it.

Old Seneca Chief




PeeS.........We were going to take down Lucy's "My Girl" song from our prior post, butt it seems appropriate.


So....Lucy would like to continue to play this song ESPECIALLY for K and KB.

Valentine's Party Karaoke SingAlong

Lucy Donkey here.......with some smooth sounds Karaoke to help you celebrate Valentines Day with the one you love.....

Let's start out with a golden oldie.....and everyone's favorite....

"My Girl"   Turn it up!!!

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey   (HAY IS FOR HORSES and DONKEYS)Ooh....ooohhhhhh  (SING IT, DOGS!)
I don't need no money, fortune, or fame.
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
With my girl.

I've even got the month of May
With my girl

Hold your girl close....and sing it again!!!

Yarn Balls.....Not Just for Knitting Anymore....

I help my momma with her knitting projects all da time.   

Usually, I help to stabilize da Yarn Balls.......

It is very important that her Yarn Balls do not float away, so I keep them stable, with my head......

This is pretty comfy...........I'm getting a little sleeeeeeeeeepy....

What????   You want me to MOVE my head?!?!?!??!    You don't really need to use THIS particular ball of yarn, do you? Why don't you use that pretty RED ball of yarn.....
