Snow!

Posing for a picture with Rio & Seyah

So it we finally had our first snow in South Hadley and it was wonderful! Mom stayed outside in the cold the morning it snowed for an hour with me. And then the next day I had a playdate with two Golden Retrievers that live nearby! Fun times I tell ya!

Tug of war!

My two favourite things sticks & snow!

Turkey Hunting

Mom took me Turkey Hunting on Thanksgiving w/Maddie. Okay... so it was just to the park for a walk! But I did do some turkey hunting later in my human grandmothers kitchen! Yum.

I had a great time. We won't get to go there often because Mom says this dog park was too hilly/rocky. I had a blast and look forward to going again with my Grandma next time we visit while mom stays home and rests!

Can you spot me?

This was an awesome walk, but where did the Turkeys all go?

It's been a while...

It's been a while since I've posted. Mom has been super stressed dealing with college regarding her accommodations. After 9 weeks she finally got her desk/chair in her Chemistry lecture that was supposed to be in place days after classes started. She is dealing with a lot of joint and muscle issues due to that in addition to not being able to use her scooter and we had to make a special trip to Bethesda, MD to see her doctors because of it. She is a little better and will hopefully be a lot better soon. In the meantime I try to cheer her up and help as much as I can. But don't dispair some good things have happened too!

The fire-door on our floor is being propped open so Mom won't risk dislocation and injury from dealing with it (unfortunately this is not being done downstairs too.)
