Belated Gratitude

You might (or not) have been wonderin' where we've been. WE'VE been wonderin' where our Mamma's been. Obviously, not heres.
Mom finally HERE: This month has been one of the nutsiest Februaries in recent memory. Besides about twelve birthdays, there have been grandkid holidays (yes... we've been the sitters) and a couple of short trips for us... as in two-day road type vacays. Our son just announced his engagement and impending marriage at the end of April - woo hoo! The fur-girls have gotten a couple of awards that we haven't gotten to, and a VALENTINE gift that we've been unpardonably late in posting and thanking about. So heeeeere's Sammie!
It's about time... About a month ago, the pawesome mailman brought us a package that we've been sniffin' at since its arrival! And yes... we've taken a couple of trips that were cool. One was to Eureka, Ca., where we opened this unbelievable pressie!

You can see me investigating this wonderful smelling giftie above. Check out all the decorations on the package. It is from our pals, Augie and Ti, who are non-pareils (isn't that a candy?) at adorning their pressies!

You BET we were fighting over this!

Daddy helped us open part of it, and Avalon immediately stole some of the packaging!

Awwww... isn't that a gorgeous box??? Looks like candies!!!

Uh ohhhhh... Avalon!!! Stop stealing the goodies!!!

Thank Dogness, Dad got the loot away from her! SNooooooooooof!!! Ahhhhhhhhh... smells so yumzers yumzers!!! And look at the card with Augie and Ti signature cards!!! We'll treasure those furever!!!

And for some reason, we are having the worst time embedding youtube vids here, but if you'd like to take a look at how excited we were to jump on these goodies, take a look here first,
and then jump to this one to see how much we loved your yummy Valentine's Day heart cookies! Thank you sooooooooooooooooooo much, Augie and Ti!

We totally understand about not being around - we posted NINE times in February! Eek! I mean, I know it's a short month, but nine times is just not enough!

We're glad to see you back, though - have been working on comp obed, hopefully going to debut in June!

KB said...

I *was* wondering where y'all had gone! I figured that you were busy living a full and happy life rather than blogging (not to put down blogging).

Fabulous Valentine's Day Pressies!

What lucky dogs. And congrats on the engagement!
