Monday Mischief: Last Week in Review

I'm baaaaaaack!

And so are the Bosses!  Hip hip, Hooray!  (Don't worry, I really did like Gran"dog"ma's house!)

We're back into the old routine here, and I thought I'd share a little bit of just what kind of mischief our entire family's been up to the past 7-9 days or so, seeing that I've been off the keyboard for a while.

My Bosses, as you might know, took a trip to visit some family and friends on the East Coast.  I wish I could say that I've been the chief mischief-maker, but I think the Bosses took the cake for last week.  Look at all the fun things they did!

First, they stopped for 2 days in Arlington, VA/Washington, D.C. to visit and sight-see.  They like history, so all the places to visit were stunning.








For the remainder of their time on the East Coast, Bosses were in the Philadelphia area.  They went out there 3 years ago for Thanksgiving, too, so they tried to go places that they haven't seen before.  This time, they went to Eastern State Penitentiary (no pictures, sorry), Ridley Creek State Park, and Longwood Gardens for a beautiful light and holiday display.  They said it was breathtaking and wonderful!















Now, I'm sure you're thinking "enough with those crazy Bosses of yours, what have YOU been up to the past week?!"

My stay at Gran"dog"ma's house was great!  I got so much attention, and got to run around in the backyard a lot, and got lots of snuggles, and even now have my new best friend pinned behind the bed.....CHLOE!  
She has officially worn me out.
Still knocked out.
Because....I'm a Golden Retriever magnet!
My new neighborhood Golden buddy, Bailey!
My other new neighborhood Golden buddy, Bear!
Yep, I'm officially a Golden Retriever magnet!  Apparently my Gran"dog"ma's neighborhood is sprinkled with Golden Retrievers, only to be discovered once I stayed there for a week.  Better yet, Gran"dog"ma's backyard neighbor's Golden, Bear, decided to break out of his yard to trot into mine- for playtime!  What a silly, clever, and mischievous dog! :) But, we had SO much fun, and Bear's parents really don't mind when he wanders over, and neither does Gran"dog"ma.  When the neighbors saw us having all the fun, they brought over their dog, Bailey, ANOTHER Golden!  So, we all wore each other out, creating another "success" in my book.

What sorts of mischief have you been up to this week?  Discuss!

(Oh, and if you haven't entered the giveaway yet, you have a little less than two weeks to get your entries in!) 

Chow!

    1. Goldens RULE! We tried to bring another Golden into our house as a foster, but it fell through. :( Who couldn't live without a little of the Gold in their life? ;-)

  2. What a fun time you had! Maybe you can send your parents away more often so you can have even more fun!

    1. That doesn't sound like a bad idea! ;-) I loved Gran"dog"ma's house, but when I went with her to pick up the Bosses from the airport, I went right into Mom's lap, sighed, and then slept. There's nothing better than my Humans!

    1. Bosses loved the lights. It put them right in the Christmas mood! The pictures do not do it justice- if you ever get to Pennsylvania in December, Mom recommends you go! :)

    1. Aww, you're so sweet! I'll let Mom know you like the pics. She's been getting better at snapping pictures with the right exposure. But...there's still a TON to learn!

      Who knows, maybe they have the wrong dog! I'm still really crazy though, so I think I'm the right dog. Or am I? ..........

    1. The Bosses said it was gorgeous. The pictures don't do it justice- although it's the best representation they could get on film! Golden buddies are hard to resist, that's for sure. :)

    1. Bosses had tons of fun out there- but they were glad to be back in the Midwest, too! There's just that "home" charm that can't be beat. And plus, I'm here. How could they resist?! ;-)

    1. I try my best! I love my Golden buddies- I seem to have a lot of them. It sure helps that Mom and Dad volunteer with the Golden Retriever rescue here in Minnesota! :)

    1. Annapolis? Neat! Bosses probably drove really close- they drove from Arlington, VA to Philadelphia, PA one day! They stayed in PA for most of the time though.

    1. Haha! I love it. Just imagine if all of us Goldens got together and had a HUGE Golden fest. Who wouldn't come to that party? ;-)

Thanks for stopping by! You're "paw"some. I do my best to respond to my "fan mail" within 24 hours of it being received, but please be patient- my paws are pretty clumsy at the keyboard! :)
