Madi: How I spent my Saturday afternoon

Yesterday started out like an ordinary Saturday...we slept in, the peeps had a leisurely breakfast. I took my usual nap while the peeps were away doing Saturday errands. Shortly after they returned Mom & Dad decided to watch one of the National Park programs they have on dvr. I decided to do a little fountain watching. As you might remember from previous posts, I'm infactuated with my water fountain. I love watching the water run down the slide. We are all thoroughly enjoying our entertaiment of choice, when poof out goes the power for no apparent reason at 2 pm. No bad weather or anything. Mom waited a few minutes then call the power company. Of course it is all automated. The recording said a crew had been dispatched. No cause is yet known for the outage. After about a half an hour mom calls again,the recording says our power should be back on by 5 PM.

What MOM yells I have washing to do, blogs to write, tv programs to watch

MOM I SQUEAL....TELL THE NUMB SKULLS MY FOUNTAIN IS NOT WORKING!!!

Well there is nothing to do inside so Mom goes out with her camera to take some fall pictures. Lo and behold look what she sees across the street from us a Labordoodle puppy. To quote Jack, the puppy was on a 'string'. Mom walked over to the neighbors to ask if they had a new puppy. Yes we do he is 4 mos old we just brought him home in September. Mom asked his name.

Biscuit
He is acutally about the color of a perfectly baked biscuit

Mom said he was very soft. She told Biscuit she hoped he would grow into his tongue becuase it was very long

Biscuit's forever home is with Evan and Julia and

their Mom and Dad. What a lucky puppy he is and mom is thrilled to know

that he is just across the street from us.

Shortly after meeting Biscuit, lo and behold there is another new face on the cul-de-sac.
Martha and Bailey tell me when their human brother was a wee lad he called it it a 'cuddle sack'.
That is about the cutest thing we've heard in a very long time!!! Thanks Martha and Bailey.
You'll never in 1 million years guess this pretty girl's name....

Waffle
Her Dad isn't exactly sure of her breed but he said the Vet guessed she was a mixture of
possibly Golden retriever, St. Bernard, Boxer or Swiss Mountain. Waffle is not quite a year old.
She and her dad are going to obedience classes. She is very well behaved.

We also have two older dogs on the cul-de-sac, Casey, a Border Collie and Charlie Brown a Basset Hound. Casey and Charlie Brown live next door to each other. They feed on each other's hyperactivity. Casey runs up and down the length of the fence trying her best to herd Charlie Brown. Much to Charlie Brown's peeps delight, this activity keeps CB trim and fit. Charlie Brown and Casey are both escape artists.

Mom was thrilled to meet the new puppies...I just want to taste them because they sound very delicious and you know how I am about food.
