Mexico in our Minds

Mommy and Sydne went to Cabo San Lucas together and they didn't take us! But I felt that should not stop us from going, (remember my trip to Hawaii?) So I told Bunnybell and Annie that we have to put on our sombreros, close our eyes and imagine we are in Mexico. And there we were! On the beach at Pueblo Bonito Resort! How fab!

The Lion and the Mouse

So based on everyone's opinions, I chose to be Minnie and Annie chose to be the Lion. Since we would be together on Halloween I wondered if I could make us work as a pair. And then I remembered one of Aesop's fables - The Lion and the Mouse ! How fab!  Do you remember the story? 
A lion threatens a mouse that wakes him from sleep. The mouse begs forgiveness and makes the point that such unworthy prey would bring the lion no honor. The lion then agrees and sets the mouse free. Later, the lion is netted by hunters. Hearing it roaring, the mouse remembers its clemency and frees it by gnawing through the ropes. The moral of the story is that mercy brings its reward and that there is no being so small that it cannot help a greater. 
Which also reminds me of Shakespeare's words which I like to live by, "and though she be but little she is fierce".  Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Day

It's National Pumpkin Day! What a perfect day to visit a Pumpkin Patch. But there is so much hay on the ground that sticks to my precious poodle fur. So I thought why not hitch a ride in a wagon! Annie liked the idea too! That was convenient since it also made a perfect photo op!

A Day in La Jolla

Recently we went to La Jolla for the day. We love walking around the cove and seeing the sea lions. (See them laying on the rocks down below?) 

Lots of people go down there to see them up close. Annie got scared the last time we were here so we didn't go down to the rocks this time.

Then we went into town and there was an art festival going on. And we saw the most bizzare thing. All these kids were painting a big limo ! I kept my distance because I didn't want them to move onto poodle painting!

Butterflies

The last time Bunnybell came for a visit a butterfly went right past our noses.  That prompted a discussion on what it must be like to be a butterfly. We both agreed that first being a caterpillar wasn't very appealing other than being able to have lots of shoes. But we liked the idea of being a butterfly. Not only can you fly around, but have such pretty wings in such fab colors. Mommy overheard us and the next thing we knew we had our wings!

Shopping Halloween

The other day, Annie and I went to the drugstore with Mommy. Annie was very interested in the skeleton displays. 

Then she wanted us to try on Halloween stuff. I thought maybe I could be a witch since I am overdue for a grooming. Annie on the other paw, decided on a full disguise. ...

She barked I want to be a kitty! Then why do you have a werewolf mask on Annie?
