There was a lot of excitement in our house for the UW vs Michigan game last week. It didn’t quite turn out as we hoped but it wasn’t for lack of cheering.
Shredding and cooking. Two distinctly different activities but done in our house with the same amount of enthusiasm.

Love the purple wig! 😊 And it’s amazing how Ms O and Mr D are so helpful and enthusiastic around the house. A nice inspiration for the weekend.
Hope you enjoy the weekend ahead together!

Very observant, Dr. Stein. But the funny thing is that I never buy gas there – it’s too expensive.

Wise words from Ogden Nash—”A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of.” If you hadn’t given him credit, I’d have thought that was one of your genius statements, Wynne! Esoterica is right—Cooper has indeed incorporated himself into the family culture!

Oh my stars…Cooper lounging — his full length against the door made me smile, smile, smile. What a handsome hunk of doggo. Just as Erin said…he fits right in, doesn’t he? 🥰

Ha, you said it perfectly – Cooper does fit right in! And yes, he’s so handsome which is how he gets away with eating a great deal of any paper he can get his paws onto. Is he an author you think? 🙂 🙂 ❤

Oh, I’m so glad to hear older kids are up for shredding too. Because I have a whole other bag that needs to be done as well. And yes, I really appreciated that sign! Happy weekend, Betsy!

My little Joe did some shredding. He was making up stories about destruction in the process. It was comical, but also a little frightening. Such a boy. 😛

Ogden Nash certainly summed up what all dogs hope for…an “open door policy.” I am very sure the Huskies heard all of your cheers and are grateful for them regardless of the outcome.🙂

I am surprised they don’t give you a discount for your promotion of their product. Or perhaps they count the laughter as a justification of their price. That’s worth more than the gas on some days.
