Snowy OBX

Hello there & Happy Monday!

I realized that I forgot to share some pics from our trip to the OBX after the Christmas snowstorm.

Pants was very curious about this snowy sand.

A little too curious....check out that sandy mug:


(what a sad looking puppy)
We only stayed long enough to be able to say "Yep, we saw the snow on the beach" and throw a snowball into the ocean.

A snowy beach is definitely a fun thing to experience, but we think we'll stick to sunny skies and warm breezes from here on out.

TGIF....for reals.

Man, what a week, right? It was busy, it was snowy, it was crazy.

But that's all behind us now and I'm looking clear ahead to a nice, relaxing weekend!

Thanks for all the fun entries! If ever she were going to win on this phrase....I think this is it. So, congrats to AUNTIE A for her favorite description of Lily Mae (our little seal pup).

Poor Pants has felt more like a seal this week than she'd care to. The snow and wetness and then a bath on top of it have made this a rough one for her. We'll try to make up for it this weekend with plenty of time for this:

Happy weekend, all!

Blahblah-excusesfornotposting--blahblahblah

Sorry, friends! It's just been one of those weeks. Instead of making excuses, I think we'll just go with this pic (since this is how we all feel today anyway) and I'll let you guys caption away!

Good luck & stay dry/warm/safe!

Contest ends Friday @ noon EST!

Just Got Paid, Friday Night, Party Hoppin, Feeling Right

Title reference?? Anyone? No? It's cool...I'll just continue to make incredibly random references and then chastise you for not knowing all the random things I remember from childhood.

Like my Yeti reference from Monsters, Inc? Obscure....puh-lease. Everyone loves that movie. Work with me.

Ok, moving on to good news because its FRIDAY and everyone should be suuuuper excited. Dethroning Miss Lisa N. from her record-breaking 3-week queendom is.......

MISS LNEL!

Welcome to the blog, fellow furry-owning lady! I agree, that North Face should absolutely sponsor our little Pants and we'll reap the benefits like the best theater-parents out there.

We'd ask Lily how she feels about our selling her out, but she's been incredibly busy sitting awkwardly underneath the coffee table.

Cheers to sponsorships - we'll keep our fingers crossed!

Snowy Outlook - Caption Time!

I don't know about you guys...but Pants and I are just about done with this cold weather nonsense. Spring?....bring it on.

In that vain, I thought we'd bring back this oldie-but-goodie from the first Snowpocalypse last year.

Caption it up - let's dooooo itttt.

Ends Friday @ noon EST (for realsies this time)

Whoopsie...winner!

I know I know....I'm a bad blogger and I'm SORRY to have kept you waiting all weekend! But...drumroll please.....
Miss LISA N. takes the win this week with her high-larious reference to everyone's favorite horse and girl diver movie! (anyone starting to sense a trend? Apparently referencing my favorite movies is a quick way to the winner's circle....who knew?!)


In one of her weirdest moves to date, Pants "relaxed" in this position until I physically moved her because it looked so uncomfortable.

Hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing MLK Day! I promise to post tomorrow with some of Pants' slip and slide adventures from this morning.

She's Heating Up!...

Watch out folks - Miss Lisa N. is heating up! She's this weeks Caption Contest winner
(and that makes it two weeks running!)

Can she keep the momentum rolling for week three?

Pants and I can't wait to find out.


Well, actually, Pants is a little sleepy at the moment. Eating rawhide bones is exhausting.

But not to worry - after a nice weekend of R&R, she'll be ready to roll with next week's posts.

Happy Weekend!

Caption Contest - Bad Parenting

Here we go...this week's caption contest is here!!

Unfortunately for Pants, last night it was time to wash her bed again. And since we all know how that went last time, we weren't surprised by her reaction...



What's going on inside that little pug brain?

Someone's bound to hit the nail on the head....and that someone will be announced Friday at noon EST. Good luck!!

Happy New Year!

Happy 2011!

Well now...it seems that I owe you an apology for the complete lack of posts during the holidays. What can I say? My days were filled mostly with this:

and this:


Yeah, we really took advantage of our little vacation.

But fear not - it's back to the grind today and I promise more regular posts and we'll get you all caught up on our holiday celebrations. Hope everyone had a nice, relaxing end to 2010.
