Trip to the Lake Friday 18 May

Hi everybody!!! We went to the lake last Friday and took photos and videos! We had a whole lot of fun!!!
Here is a video of Madie sniffing out the window on the way to the lake!

Hi! Mom says I look very cute in this photo! You can see my purple spotted tongue too. I just love going to the lake! We get to run around...chase Papa........

...explore...

...sniff around...
...walk and jump down logs....

...stalk big black birds...
As you can see in this last video we have so much fun that Madie is too tired to get in the window to sniff on the way back home!

Mad-Cow the Bucking Bronco

Guess what!?! Today my Papa was playing with me and he stuck my cow toy on my head!!! I got it off though but they were laughing and then they took videos of me taking the cow toy off my head!!!!!! I have to admit...it was fun! Here are the videos:

Here's Part 2

Now they've started calling me Mad-Cow!!!!!

We've Been Tagged!

We've been tagged by our Mom to tell seven things about US!

China

1. I don't like playing with toys or balls...it's just silly! I will get something and pick it up and bring it to my Mom or Papa IF they ask me to...I'm a very good girl like that.
2. One time I caught a jack rabbit when me and my friends were chasing them! That was when we lived in California the last time. Mom and Papa didn't let me chase them anymore after that....who knows why it was my proudest moment! I brought it to them to share the fruits of my labor and everything but they told me to drop it and then I never found out what happened to it!
3. I'm a mama's girl, and I stick to my mama like glue...where she goes I go...and if I don't get to go I'm very upset about it...I don't understand why they choose to leave the house with out me there to protect them! If I am not right by my mom guarding her then I am very close nearby and I must be able to get to her at a moments notice! It's my duty you know.
4. When anyone enters my house they must pay the required penalty fee...to pet me a lot...if they do not pay this fee I will continuously huff and puff at them...NO EXCEPTIONS!
5. The only vegetable that I really like raw is tomatoes, and Mom tells me that they technically are a fruit! I love fruit though! But I will eat other veggies if Madie is getting them...she can't have it all to herself that just wouldn't be right!
6. I don't like fake chewies...no rubber, no plastic...icky! I have to have the real thing or it's not worth my chewing!
7. I'm prissy...at least that's what Mom calls it...I don't like to touch wet grass or walk in tall grass...I don't like to go out if it's raining. I have a real aversion to water the only kind I like is what's in my water bowl (or if Madie is getting a bath HAHA)!

Madie

1. I love people! Any people, if I see them I want to meet them! My favorite kind of people is KIDS!!!!!!!!! They are always the most fun of all!
2. I love to tease China! I bow over one of my toys and then I bark at her...I just stay there and do that a few times...really get her staring at me and hunting me....then...I peel out!!!!! And she'll chase me! It's a blast! The best part is I can fit places she can't so I laugh at her from under the ottoman!
3. I love to have fun! I love my toys! I love squeaking my toys! I love tugging! I love chasing Papa! I just plain love to have FUN!
4. I love Food! Any food...if it's edible then I eat it!
5. I love to snuggle and have nap time with my Mom or Papa
6. I always wish I could lick people's teeth...they always smell so yummy...why won't they let me lick their teeth? I always ask them "Hey, hey your teeth smell good...can I lick your teeth?" but they always say no!
7. My name used to be Madison or Maddie but when Mom and Papa adopted me they spell my name differently as Madie and they never call me Madison. My Auntie Joyce is the one who named me, because I used to live with her before my Mom and Papa adopted me. Mom and Papa say they spell it that way because they like to call me Mad-Dog and sometimes they call me Mad-Butt too...they can be so silly!

Okay that's it for us! Mom tagged:

Tummy Tagged!!!!!!!

We've been tummy tagged by the AO4!!!
So here are our tummies!

I learned this trick a long time ago it's called 'stretch' but lately Mom and Papa have been calling it 'dead dog'!

Mine is called 'dead dog' and I usually do it after 'BANG'! You can see my trick here.

We don't know who to tag...it seems like everyone has already been tagged! So if you see this and haven't been tagged it's your turn!!!!!!!

Kids!!! Kids!!! Kids!!!

GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!!!! The kids are back!!! Their Mom had to go to the field so they get to stay with us for a few days!!! We even get to wake them up in the mornings! It's SO FUN!

Madie says "I love Alece she jumps around and does cool stuff and can you see I really would like to taste her lolly pop but she didn't let me but I gave it my best shot really jumped high too!"
China says "I like Alece too but Mom gets mad at me if I treat her like Madie and tells me she's not a puppy and can't play with her like I would Madie...I just don't get it she runs like Madie does!"

China says "This one's my favorite, her name is Ashe'a. She pets me and gives me snuggles and scritches and massages too! If you look you can see my happy face all relaxed and stuff."

China says "Here you can see how Alece jumps around and Ashe'a gives me pets! I love it!"

We'll show you more photos when Mom takes them!
