Celebrating the last day of Summer 2008

Cody and Daisy celebrated the last day of summer at the beach yesterday!

Lots of swimming, running, making new friends, and... fishing for seaweed? Cody was very proud haha

The kids ran around like they've never been outside before! I love seeing the excitement in their eyes!

Nee-ner Nee-ner Nee-ner!

It really wasn't THAT funny, Cody...

but i'm happy to see you enjoy mom's humor. :)

All about Daisy!

Here are some of my favorite snapshots of the little girl from our "photoshoot" the other day. :)

You ain't nuttin but a hound dog!

Here's Cody entertaining Daisy with his Elvis impersonation. Looks like the little one likes it!

Mean Face!

Here's Daisy's mean face:

Cody's mean face kinda looks the same as Daisy's mean face!

Poor Patrick!

We left the house for about an hour to go play tennis last night and when we got back, there was a murder scene upstairs!!! Patrick, the cutest blue, curly sheep, had been murdered!

Cody was trying to sniff for evidence on who did the crime... Hmmm... Where's Daisy?

Let's take a look at the good times we had with Patrick:

Here's Patrick being a good sport by getting beat up by Daisy:


Patrick being a fun sun-bathing companion with Cody:

Taking a mid-day nap with the Bear and Daisy outside:

Being a referee for Cody and Daisy's wrestling match:

Daisy's body guard making sure no one steals her rawhide from her:

Rest in peace Patrick!!!! You will be missed! :)

Patrick: March 2008 - September 2008.

Cody's long lost twin!

Yesterday we went to the 3rd annual Dog Surf Contest at Del Mar, and there we found Cody's long lost twin! haha and no, that is not Cody below:

i was trying to be sneaky and take a picture of them side by side, but when they met, they immediately wanted to play with each other and the picture would have been impossible to take!

The Cody and Daisy Olympics

Cody and Daisy were inspired by the recent Olympics that they decided to hold their own competition in the backyard. Here they are in the 100m dash!

Two's a crowd!

Labor Day Beach Day!

What better way to celebrate Labor Day than going to the beach? The kids couldn't think of a better way. Here's Cody making a b-line straight to the water:

Daisy was a little hesitant. She didn't want to get her pretty hair wet. She later caved in.

Cody: do-do-do, where should i run to?

These kids can't wait for Labor Day to be over because the day AFTER Labor Day is the first day they can run around the beach offleash until summer again. Woo- hoo!!

The life of a puppy.

Guard Dog.

Daisy took on the role of a guard dog while we were doing front yard landscaping stuff. Boy does she look tough... sleeping on the job! View from the front of the house...


View from inside the house looking out...

It's tough being a guard dog!

Graduation Day!!

Today was Daisy's graduation day from puppy kindergarten class. Today they were introduced to the agility course which Daisy LOVED and couldn't get enough of.

Daisy loves being on top of the world!

So for graduation, we're suppose to show the rest of the class a trick that our puppies have learned to get our graduation diploma hahaha. Here's Daisy in action.

The old married couple.

Cody and Daisy play, yet bicker so much with each other it's like they're an old married couple. Listen to them argue with each other haha


and then after all the bickering, they kiss and make up. :)

Couch Potatoes!

Daisy's Impersonation of....

a Japanese anime cartoon character!

Best Friends Forever! :)

Synchronized looking... to the side...

Bobbing for (imaginary) apples!

Prim and Proper

The Bear has such impeccable manners (unless there's food around), but he's trying to be a good influence on the super crazy little one haha

Big Me, Mini Me

Just like Arnold Schwartzeneggar and Danny DeVito in that old movie, "Twins"... Here's Cody and Mini Me!


Here's Big Me - all 76 pounds of muscle and meat (the dog, not that asian guy):

and here's Mini Me - all 22 pounds of flowers and butterflies (the asian guy, not the dog haha just kidding!)

Daisy P.I.

Daisy's investigating what's under the sofa that's causing all that noise and suction!

Daisy's Yoda Impersonation

Daisy-zilla!

Daisy found a hot air balloon to chomp down on. Oh how cute those little humans look!

Oh boo! It's a bit farther away than she thought. Maybe next time!

Blending in with the toys.

Synchronized sleeping part II

Kisses all around!

oh the amount of love in the air that these kids give to each other is endless!
