Whispering donkeys

Imagine my delight when I visited our blogging friend Christine’s site – Garybuie – last week to find this:
Drawn by Christine from this photo of Bernard and Ellsworth taken back in 2010:
And this:
Also drawn by Christine, from this photo of Whisky taken last year:
Beautiful, right? Christine is self-taught, and has discovered that animals are her forte since fur and feathers satisfy her love of detail. How I wish I had even fraction of Christine’s talent.
If you would like to commission a portrait of your pet, you can email Christine at garybuie@btopenworld.com.

Rub a dub dub

Having my mom; aka Memaw, here for a visit is always a blessing because she helps us with so many things. On Saturday, she helped me give the girls and Whisky a bath.
Kassie’s favorite part of getting a bath is being dried off.
She loves being rubbed dry.
Giving Whisky a bath is a dream. He loves water, so he walks right into the tub when he’s asked… and stands quietly and calmly while he’s being washed.
Enzi and Suni share the same philosophy about baths. They do everything they can to convince themselves that, “This isn’t happening to me,” while they’re being bathed, but they love the end results.
Both Enzi and Suni always have an extra spring in their step after a nice bath.
And Kike. Sweet girl just loves to be loved, no matter where she is.
Even in the bathtub. ♥

MeeMaw’s madhouse
Posted by Morning Bray under Dogs, Friends and Family | Tags: dogs, Enzi, Kassie, Kike, madhouse, MeeMaw, mom, Suni, Whisky |[21] Comments
Lord have mercy.
The girls love their MeeMaw.
On Tuesday afternoon, my mom arrived from Maryland for a visit. As always, a madhouse erupted when she walked into the Hairy Hacienda.
Why is the Baby snarling at Whisky?
Once Kassie was out of range, Whisky decided it was okay to join the welcome celebration.
Which naturally led to Whisky and Kike playing. Their idea of playing is Whisky pretending to chew on Kike’s snout.
Of course, everyone eventually calmed down and Enzi gave MeeMaw a hug.
And then Enzi and Kike gave MeeMaw a hug.
We love our madhouse.
Yesterday was my mom’s birthday. Happy Birthday Mommy!
