Happy Thanksgiving!

A bit too much turkey left Griffin and Olivia pretty sleepy!

Olivia and Griffin's 5 Year Photos

Olivia and Griffin turned 5 in October, and, as I have done every year, I had their photos taken. The photo session happened to be a week after Nate and I got engaged, so the bullies and I decided to include him this year.

When Nate and I first started dating, he thought I was a CRAZY dog lady who worried too much about Olivia's feelings. Three years later, HE is just as dog focused as I am (is it coincidental that our engagement happened once he went dog crazy???).

Anyway, here are some of my favorites-

Worst Dog Ever

Griffin bit a guy in his prosthetic hook arm today. Yes, go ahead and re-read that- my dog bit a man in his hook hand.

Kill me now.

We were at the park and a man saw Olivia chasing her ball and he approached, asking me, "how did you teach her to do that?" I get approached at least twice a week when we are at the park- we are a spectacle, so this is pretty common. Then the man turned his attention to Grif and Griffin was his super friendly, wiggly, adorable self. The man bent down to pet him and as he did, Grif jumped up and bit his hook. Griffin LOVES tools and is very curious about everything, so I can't say I'm surprised that he reacted that way. But I was shocked when he did it and I apologized profusely as I grabbed him.

The man was very understanding and said, "whoa! He's a playful one!" I was relieved that he wasn't mad, but I was still mortified and absolutely wanted to strangle Griffin.

Anyway, other than that, the bulldogs have just been hanging out, going to daycare & the office, playing at the park, living the life.
