Buster's Barkings

What a great summer!

Well, I know it's been a long time, but who can stay INSIDE when it's been such a great summer!!!

Me and my boy have had such fun! And my girls taught me a new trick! They say "Shake" and I give them my paw and they shake it and get all excited and tell me what a good dog I am!!! isn't that just silly!??

My mommy says I am the best boy now! Whenever one of the other dogs tries to step out of line, yes VITA I'm talking to YOU! I will run right over, split up the two, and make sure I put them in line!!! Mommy says I'm her little referee!

I get to sleep with my boy, and it's been so hot! So he has a nice, cool big toybox at the end of his bed, and it's all mine!!! I sleep on it, and anytime I hear anyone coming near my boy, I Growl and warn them!!! "Don't mess with MY BOY!"

I walk so good on a leash now, that Johnny can take me for nice walks all by himself now!!! Just the two of us! Then he always takes me running in the big back yard after!!!!

OH! I got the COOLEST toy ever!!!! It's a slingshot Duck! Johnny holds it's tail, and it's got a rubber thing and when Johnny lets go......WHEEEEEEEEE it flies across the room!!!!!!!!! Mommy gets mad when it lands in the water bowl though.......I dunno why. Oh how I just love the fetch game!!!!!! Rope fetch, holey roler ball fetch, tennis ball fetch, slingshot duckie fetch.........and my squeaky Cuz's too! I have an orange dinosaur one now too!!!! Oh how I love them! i am big enough to really get those buggers sqeaking for mercy now!!!!!!! Mommy keeps hiding them on me though......can't imagine why....it's such a great sound!!!!!!

Well off to play!!!!! Tomorrow my kids go back to school, isnt' that terrible!??? The summer is way too short!!!! But Mommy promised we'll go for walks, so I guess I'll be ok. Talk to you soon!

Love
Buster

A tree grows in.........

My living room........No I'm serious!!! My family had turkey day, then the next day they cleaned the whole downstairs, and moved furniture (much to Marnie's annoyance! She has the whole house memorized being blind and all) and then Dad brought in these big boxes.

Well, i was really excited, cause the kids were so excited and were yelling and bouncing all over, and it was really fun!!! Then Mom took this thing out of a box, and then put it together and it was a TREE......only it didn't SMELL like a real tree, or TASTE like a real tree, and mom wasn't thrilled with me tasting it and said to "DONT" EVEN THINK ABOUT IT" when I sorta sided up to mark it either!!!!! But it LOOKS like a tree.......sort of...

They put all these lights up on it.....all twinkly and pretty colors, and then put all these little dangly things on it!!! I've already chewed up one, and had to take a time out, but sheesh......they're DANGLING right there!!!!!! I mean REALLY!! So I guess it's some kind of SPECiAL tree, cause it sure is a big deal to everybody with two legs. I like to lay under it and look up in it......there's a fake bird in it, in a little nest that I'd just LOVE to get the feathers off and see what's inside.....but Mom would NOT be happy, so I just look at it. The kids like to tell me stories about all the little dangly things called ornaments. Some of them have names on them and look like animals or little people. They're really neat!

Johnny says that some guy named SANTA is coming to our house soon, and he'll be bringing me a present!!!! He says I can't bite him or anything or I won't get my present. I get to be loose all night now and I get to sleep with Johnny every nite the whole weekend!!!! Mom says I'm a big boy now, and I'll be a whole year old next month, so now I can be loose at night if I don't wreck the house while they're sleeping!!!! I'm really trying.......but they DID leave that bathroom door open with the paper that you can pull off.........not my fault!!!!!

Love
Buster
