Gardening and going to a Vineyard!

This weekend has been hugely lots of fun! Gracie came to visit, and then I went to visit Gracie. I gots to play muchos with scooter, and then we did some new stuffs for the rest of the weekend which I is sooper excited to tell you about!!















Firsts, yesterdays mommy did something called gardening. She said that she didn't like the stuff growing outsides of the house and so she and Patrick dug everythings up (except the tree) and planted new flowers and stuffs. It looks lots better. And Scooter got to dig, so he was sooper happy.

Then today, we wents to a vineyard! It was called Loudoun Valley Vineyard. I don't know what a vine is. But I know what a yard is. It was not what I expected. There was no fences. But lots of grass and plants and people and doggies. Mommy said it was an event called "Bark and Wine" which means the doggies get to bark and walk around and the peoples get to have wines. I didn't get any wines. But when we got there, we went to a tent and mommy and Patrick got baggies that had goodies for me and Scooter! They had bandannas and water and cookies!

We took a walk around the vineyard and then hung out whiles mommy and Patrick had some wine and some foods from a picnic basket. They shared the foods but not the wine. The foods was good... they hads bread and brie and salami and grapes and apples and cookies. I got some of everything but the grapes and cookies.

By the times we was done, we was all pooped. It's a long but fun weekend. And mommy said she gets to stay home tomorrow from work. Hooray!

Lots going on in Charley-land

Sowwy that I hasn't updated in a longs times. Mommy has been busy, which means that she doesn't let me update my bloggie. *sniff*

But there's been lots going on! Mommy says I don't have much times to update, so I gots to be as fast as I can. A whiles ago Mommy's Mommy and Daddy went away on a trip to another place far away. So we went to live at their house to help out while they were gones. Which means I gots to live with Gracie! For two whole weeks! We played and played and played lots, and got to go to Beth's every day to run around in her backyard (like a little doggie park) with Murphy. By the ends of the two weeks we was so tired we spended most of our time sleeping. Expecially when there was a sunbeam to sleep in.

Then last weekends Mommy and Patrick left me and Scooter at a Dogs Day Out for the whole weekends! I hasn't been theres for a long time. I forgotted it. I was so scared when mommmy left me that I peed on the floor. But I think it was okay. I got to runs around lots and lots all weekends with Scooter! Dogs Day Out is a nice place with fences to keep the big doggies from getting too close to me and Scooter. Mommy and Patrick went to New York to meet more peoples. But no doggies, so I don't mind. I wishes I could go with them though. Mommy said I would be scared of the plan. I isn't scared of nothing!

This week has been goods, with lots of visits to the doggie park. I has been playing fetch with mommy. Yay! I gots go now!

New Years and lots of chicken!

Happy New Years! My mommy said to say thats. I is confoosed, cuz I had my berfday days and days ago, and I thoughts that was my new years. But I guess this is everybodies new years? Anyways, Happy New Years. I got to be with mommy and Patrick and Scooter, and we got an extra treat that mommy didn't plan. Mommy wasn't looking, and I stoled a whole bag of chicken poppers! Well not a wholes bag, but lots and it was awesome! Then I was soooper hyper and energetic all night longs. Mommy was mad I thinks, but she took me outside two times, so I could walk around and get some of my energy out, in the middle of the nights! I thinks that maybes I was finally sleepies around twos or threes in the mornings.

Then today's I napped all the days long... Scooter and I made a puppy pile on the couch and dozed. It was soooo nice. Then mommy and me went to see mommy's mommy and daddy agains! They had fishies for dindins. I gots some potato when I sat up sooper cute and looked sad. Hee hee. They always falls for that twick.

Shopping iz fuun

Hi theres! Me is feeling muchos better, even though my mommy keeps putting dumb stuffs in my ears. And I thinks that she is still worried sometimes, cuz I guess I have been having some bleeeding still. But to celebrate, mommy and Patrick and Scooter and me went to one of my favoritest places. It's called PetSmart - but it's confooosing cuz mommy says that we is going to PetSmart, but every time it's sometimes a different place! But there's always good smells there.And even more importantly there's always good yummies that mommy buys me when I is there. Sometimes there's even yummys from people who work there.

Today Patrick bought me a prezzie. It was the biggest rawhides bones that I ever sawed! It was bigger than I is. I chewed it for awhiles. But then I got bored. But then I came back. And then I got boreds again. It's going to take muchos of time for me to beat this chewie!

Today was a good day. Me like good days, with lots of chewies and lots of time with mommy and Scooter and Patrick. Yay!

Happy Berfday to me! (and Gracie)

Last Saturday on the firstest day of the lastest month of this year, mommy told me it was my birthday! She seemed so excited! So of courses I got excited alsos. I jumped and gave kisses and then we gots to go to Wylie Waggs, a great store just for doggies! Scooter and Patrick came too. It smelled so yummy in there, and when mommy wasn't looking I put my face in the display of treats (but didn't manage to grab any… *sigh*).



















But it's okies cuz then mommy bought me a fluffy toy that makes a noise, and a cookie shaped like a paw! Patrick bought cookies shaped like bones. And we bought a prezzie for Gracie (I wanted to eat it, but mommy said it was for Gracie, so I guess that's okay).


Then the nextest day I thought that berfday was over, but mommy said we celebrates all the weekend long! Mommy put my sweatshirt on me cuz iz cold as a puppy nose outside! Then we went to Auntie Julie's house and got to see Gracie!

















Scooter came with me, and we had a parteeee. I's never really had a partee before, cept maybe when Auntie Julie had one awhile ago. But this partee was sooo much cooler cuz we gots to eat cake! Auntie Julie made this peanut butter carrrotty cakey with frosting and it was sooooo yummy we ate it all up quick! It was so good that I didn't even mind those silly hats that mommy made us wear.

I guesses that berfday is a good thing. I hopes I gets another one soon!

This is my intimidating face

Hee hee... I'm really a nice doggie, but my mommy found this old picture of me making my intimidating face. Sometimes a doggie has to be all mean looking just in case some scary stuff happenses. Gracie and me practices this look all the times when we play. Just very quick, so mom doesn't worry, but she caught us this time! And another time (cuz there's two pixturs).

But don't be worried, cuz I is really a very nice doggie. My bestest friend Scooter and i does this too, but I don't haves some pictures of it. When gracie is over sometimes he just takes the chewies while we play.

Visit from my sister!

Had a visit from my sister last night... yay funtimes! It was a good day... I didn't see mommy much, but I made her late to work again *grin* and then she came to get me later and took me to play with Scooter! Scooter's daddy got us some cool chewies, and he took us to the doggie park to run lots and lots. He also gave mes some dindins, which was great cuz I was huuuuuuungry. No chiken thoughs. Oh well.

But then mommy came and got me, and I was happy to see her, but sad to leave Scooter! I was bored at home while she was making some fooods and not sharing ANY with me! But then a boom at the door and GRACIE GOT HERE! I was all ready for sleepies, and then instead I played and played and played. I even licked aunt Julie's face for like ages and ages. It was super fun. Then we got tireded and fell to sleepies on the big black bed... it's sooooooooooooo comfy!

P.S. my bumpies are gone. Methinks it was bug bites.

New doggie park?

Hihihihihihihihihi! I have sooooooo much good things to tell you about fun times that I got to have a few days ago!

Auntie Julie and Gracie came to visit and then we all got in the vroomie together. I kept looking and looking and I didn't know where we were vrooming to. Mommy was excited though. I asked Gracie and she didn't know either.

We got to this place with lots of trees and grass and people and... doggies! We were at Scout's house! It was just like the doggie park, but with more room for running around. Scooter and I did lots of running. Then we found a spot on the ground that smelled soooooooooo cool. I had to roll and wiggle and try so hard to get some of that smell to come with me. And I did! Mommy was mad... dunno why cuz it smelled so great!

There was more great smelly stuff all over. Then I smelled some stuff I knew... those long meaty yummy thingys... I think they are called hot doggies, but they don't look or smell liek doggies so i guess I'm confuoosed. Someone different was making them smell so good, but they smelled the same as when mommys daddy does it. Then there were all types of smells and the people were sitting down with all those smells way up high! I just had to get some of that yummy meat stick. I was soooo patient, and only jumped a little. Mommy gave me a little taste! But then when she got up Gracie jumped up on her chair and made everyone laugh... but I think her mommy got a little mad. But the meaty yumyum was soooo good I wish I could have it every day!

It was a super fun time, I hope I get to go back soon!

I looooooooooove the doggie park

So my mommy (her name is Samantha but I just call her mommy) took me to the doggie park today. I haven't really said stuff about my mommy yet or even told you about me yet, but Samantha is mommy. What was I blogging? Oooo mommy took me to the doggie park. The first time I went to the doggie park was scary. The second time too. But now I love it so much that I jump all around and even sometimes drive mommy crazy when I get so excited when I know where we were going. Today was special though, cuz my sister Gracie and my best friend Scooter came too! Gracie's mommy (my auntie?) leaves the windows down in the vroomie and so I got to sniff around all outside on the way there. Scooter was kinda scared cuz he doesn't get to usually put his head outside of the vroomie when his daddy drives. I didn't used to like it, but then when I saw Gracie do it so much she was having fun and I tried too and it was great!


I loooooooooooooove running around with all the other doggies but today there was so much going on I kinda forgot to play too much with Gracie and Scooter and some of the other doggies. Every time I started to run I saw something new and fun to go sniff at! I found a chewie that my mommy wasn't happy about so she took it away, which made me sad. But then I forgot about it till now. Now I'm a little sad again. Oooooh is that chicken I smell? I love chicken. What was I talking about? I love chewies. Gracie ate some green stuff and her mommy got mad too, but when you have a rumble in your tummy you have to put something in it. I learned that when I was a very baby puppy. Sometimes even when there's no rumble it's fun to chew and then the stuffs just ends up in the tummy by mistakes, but I like that too.

Kinda sleepie now. I loooooooooove this blog! I'm very up on all the latest stuff, like bloggies. I is extra mucho smart.
