Presies!

Last Friday I got a surprise package from Dave. He sent me some gorgeous fiber, and two floating bones for the pups, for no other reason than to be nice. Thanks, Dave! :o)

There was also this gorgeous Wandering Cat Yarns skein in the mail for me! I helped out their niece with a fundraiser and as a Thank you, Rhonda and Valerie sent me this lovely yarn, which I could chose from their Etsy shop. Thank you, Ladies! :o) It will be a while for me to play with it though; it's gone into storage, with many other lovely yarns and fiber. :o(

I always forget to mention the creep factor of Lola and Manni. I showed Manni (the head) to Happy, and he took off and hid under the table. Denny just sat there and looked at it, but did not breath, or move a muscle, or blink. Lola did nothing for Happy, he ignored her, but Denny barked his little head off, when he first saw her standing there. :o)

I am sure Happy lets Denny win!!
If I sew something with eyes on it, The Labradors and Vundy the German Shepherd would go ballistic. I had to hide the reindeer I made in a bag on the top of the wardrobe, Vundy still knew it was there and would sit and stare at it for ages!!

I need to keep a look out for those bones, Boss would have a hayday in the bay with that.
Poor Happy, needs to stand up to the little one.

Hi Monika,

What nice packages! No matter what my two have, they always want whatever the other has, even if it's identical.

There's nothing wrong with storage yarn. We have oodles. We're off to the festival tomorrow, wish us luck.
I think the floaty bones are a grand idea. I'll have to look for some.

What a dapper dog: his bone matches his blanket!

I love watching your boys grow up. Thank you sharing them with us.
