Chuka and Roxie

In December of 2011 a new guy came into my life.  He was a cute little ball of fur.

As we were trying to decide on a name for him I mentioned that he looked like an Ewok. So, we looked up names of Ewok’s and decided upon Chuka. As Chuka grew…so did his mischievous nature.

one of Chuka's messes

This is just one of the many, many messes that I would walk in on. It was worse than a 2 year old. I couldn’t turn my head for a minute or I would find some mess or another.

And then he would look at me with those big eyes, huge ears and sweet, sweet face.

I fell in love with him over and over again, day after day.

another mess made by Chuka

Then, he would do something else. Nothing was safe.

Chuka has a comb over

Even with a comb-over he is too cute for words.

Chuka loves to sit at the table

He found his place at our table, in our lives and in our hearts.

we love it when Chuka sleeps

But ohhhh goodness, I loved it when he would sleep.

That meant I knew he wasn’t getting into something.

Chuka is a cutie

He definitely has made our lives interesting, our hearts grow and keeps us on our toes.

Golly I love the little guy.

If you are my friend on Facebook you see him often, but thought those that aren’t might also like to hear the tale of Chuka. See, he typically makes an almost daily appearance on Facebook with one of his antics or another. If you want to get to know him better you are welcome to join us there.

Anyway, all that to say…Chuka’s Birthday is TOMORROW!!

I can’t believe he is going to be a year old. Today, he is going in for a spa day. He is getting his hair trimmed, his nails cut, and who knows what all else. But you can bet you will get to see his new haircut tomorrow on Facebook as we celebrate his big day!!

 

Today is Keeta’s Birthday! She is turning 2.

Who is Keeta? Well, she is Chuka’s best friend. And what would it be if your best friend didn’t celebrate your birthday with you?

So, we are having a dog party today. Keeta got to come over to play while her Mom works. And what would a birthday party be without games?

So, Keeta went and found herself a toilet paper roll.

Then Chuka decided he had to have it and dared anyone to try to take it from him.

the dogs

So, since it IS after all a party, I drug another one out so they could both have one.

roxie

Roxie is only wants to know when it’s going to be time to eat.

She did get dressed for the occasion though!

 

Today is a big day!

Stephanie

This little bit was born 22 years ago today. I took her with me to vote yesterday because she had never done so before and then she exercised her right as a citizen and voted herself!!

When she was born she would fit in the palm of your hand. She is a little bigger than that now, but not by much. She may be my niece but she has always been such a huge part of my life that she is like one of my own kids. So while she may be little bitty, she holds a big chunk of our hearts and I want to wish her the happiest of days today and hope all her wishes come true!!

And another birthday…

Charlie

Meet Charlie! Today is his birthday as well but yesterday was his big day.

He was adopted by my mother from an animal shelter yesterday, then took a trip to Petco and got a spa treatment. I have to say, Petco in Dalton GA was so fabulous!! He needed a bath something terrible and when they found out he had just found his forever home and was on his way home for the very first time they gave him the works, took super great care of him and pampered him silly.

And, I can’t leave out Chuka.

As we were celebrating Stephanie’s birthday he felt a little left out. So, he decided to grab something similar to one of those knee scooters for sale and go for a swim! He was a little unsure about it at first but he eventually came to love being in the pool with everyone. I think we ay be seeing him floating around catching some rays more often from now on…who knows, he may be surfing next.

Hope you have a great day!!

 

Chuka Photo Contest

 

Chuka is a regular visitor on my Facebook wall. If you are my friend there, you know just all that he gets into. He is also one of the loves of our lives. He may drive us totally bonkers most days…but we also wouldn’t take anything for him. He is also the only dog I have that will sit still for a photo op.  So, he gets his picture taken often. Ok, so more than often. I even have a box for my TV that I can play pictures on it from my phone. Shhh, don’t tell folks that we do that. They will think we have lost our mind. Speaking of TV, I need to get one of the flat panel TV stands or whatever it is called to mount ours on the wall.  ANYWAY…Recently when I posted one of those pictures on Facebook a friend of mine suggest I have a “Caption That Photo” contest. So, here it is!
