Award and Nice Day for a Mini-Outing!

Sweet Yoda from Barking Out Loud passed this award to me and I send apologies to Yoda for not having acknowledged his thoughtfulness in thinking of me sooner! There are rules for accepting this award: First, I have to list 7 things to share about me!
1. Here's one y'all already know: I LOVES my kong! - in the water, on the grass - anywhere at all. It is my furry favorite toy ever!
2. I love to eat - anything...but foodables is best. Mom just changed up my diet this week - I am eating part raw food and this morning (hold onto your stomachs...) I ate raw ground turkey and organ meats and it was pawesomely good.
3. I am learning more and more about my new baby sisfur, Avalon, every day. I'm trying to be a good example for her morning outside bizzness, if you know what I mean heheh. She's doing purty good at copying me! I'm furry interested in her and she seems to love me with great amounts of enthusiasm - mayhap too much sometimes, fur me! We'll be workin' on working it out!
4. I adore swimming - I will swim in ponds, oceans, streams and lakes. There is nothing better in any weather, any season than paddling around in deep waters! (Add kong to the recipe and I'm in heaven...)
5. I loves my peeps and they really love me. Especially getting a ton of loving lately from lots of people! I also loves the grandpeeps - I'm furry good with little, little peeps!
6. You should probably know that Ozzie and I are getting to be pretty good pals these days! She still doesn't know the rules of canine play, but that's okay, cause we've kinda figured out our own rules!
7. Many of you know that Sierra Rose is my BFF, so I loves it when she comes over and plays - she's a firecracker dog, even though she's a golden, and stimulates me to get moving and play hard! Loves you Sierra!
Part the second is to pass this award on to 15 pals and since I think the entire bloggie world has this cool award, PLEASE, if you don't have it yet, take this award and tell us all seven things about you - it's neat to find out your fun facts!
So here I am at Blackie's Pasture yesterday. Something got on Mom's lens, so it's a bit blurry, but I think that this shows how much I love my kong heheh! On land....

On the beach....

In the water...

Showing my sister about how cool kongs are! Isn't Dad's hair funny in the wind?!!! Hope you are having a great weekend.

We think you are the best role model your sister could ever have - love that she got to go on the mini-outing too. Mom says that she is sure Ciara learned to take care of her outside bizzness so quickly because of our good example. But she doesn't know where she learned to love dirt so much:)

Happy weekend.

Woos - Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara

Bailey said...

You are so adventurous!

Thanks for being such a good friend to me.

I have figured out a lot more about FaceBook - but it took me a while to figure out that you were the same Samantha that was my friend over there - FB makes you give yourself hooman names. so stoopid.


See you soon!

I like the puppy sack your dad is modeling there. But she is growing fast, huh. Might get too heavy for that soon.

By any chance did you shake some of that water on the camera?

KB said...

Samantha: Any puppy with you as a big sister is very lucky! She's going to grow fast - she won't fit in the backpack for long! Funny - we have photos of all of our dogs in backpacks when they were tiny tykes, too small for long hikes. It is so cute!

I hope that you enjoyed the beach. I used to live in your neck of the woods, and the beach is something that I miss.
