Ok first let me get the usual suspects aside.  My husband, my friends, my family… goes without saying. There’s something I have tried to live without that didn’t go very well, I was miserable. When I first left home when I was 21, back in 1996, I lasted approximately three weeks without any pets. It was horrible!  I wasn’t allowed …

Something that looks a little something like this…

Man, taking the photos for the 365 project is not too bad but remembering to blog them every day is.  I think it’s because I’ve often been forgetting to take the photos until the evening and then I end up too tired to bother blogging.  I’m gonna catch up now and see how it goes. I dare say this won’t …

We’ve now had Titan with us for almost three days, and he’s completely won us all over.  With the exception of bit of night time drama the first night in his crate, he’s been an absolute dream to have around.  Now that he’s sleeping peacefully in his crate through the night, I think I can say he’s the perfect dog.  …

It occurred to me today that this month is the 14th anniversary of mine and Spencer’s life together.  He has been with me from Prince Edward Island, to Toronto and finally over here to the Netherlands. I found him in 1996, I was 21 and had just moved out of home for the first time.  I was in a small …

Oh you didn’t think I was the one running, did you?   Surely you know me better than that! This morning we decided to take the dogs to a nearby area that is enclosed where they can run off their leads.  We were up early and it was a rather miserable day so we were confident that we’d have the …

A few weekends ago my husband came in from walking the dogs and said “You might want to grab your camera, there’s some kind of motorcycle thing going on across the street!”.  The sound of motorcycles is nothing new here in Rotterdam, especially in this area.  So I didn’t even notice the sounds of them coming and going, but I …

A rawhide addict, that is… Unlike Bailey, who just grabs it and spends hours hiding them in different spots all over the house, Pixel loves rawhide bones. If there is rawhide in the house, it’s hers.  What’s hers is hers and what’s Bailey’s is hers.  That’s the law in Pixeltown. It doesn’t matter what size, shape or color, she does …

Bailey (top right) and Pixel (bottom right) peacefully engaging another dog.  A rare occasion indeed! This week’s Photo Hunt theme is Daily.  One thing that is a part of our daily life, come rain or shine, is walking the dogs… and the drama that comes along with it.  I snapped this photo last week while we were out for a …

My husband came home last night after a weekend away with his Lego / Robot buddies.  They were working on… god I’m not even going to try to explain it, it’s this, and they did get it working. I love that my husband has a hobby that he’s so interested in and gets so much enjoyment out of.  I don’t …

Merry Christmas from Pixel and Bailey!  We have one year to try to teach Pixel to sit still before next year’s Christmas photos!  Wish us luck, we’ll need it!
