Bed warmers














Keller is kinda spoiled. I was getting ready for work this morning (wake-up time: 2:20....ok, 2:27 a.m.) and I came back upstairs with a cup of coffee and found her parked in my spot, head on pillow and all! LOL - I couldn't help but laugh. She's a great bed warmer, and obviously, fairly confused over my recent work schedule.

I have to add - yesterday she was in the upstairs bathroom and sitting by the tub, with this indescribable, incredibly goofy look on her face. She was staring madly at either the seagull pictures or the clock on the wall (but I think it was the birds, given that's how she looks when she sees a bird outside) and I swore she was preparing to pounce if one of them moved. It was a bona fide stare-off for at least a minute.

Keller Sammich (With Cheese)

Keller herself enjoyed the Cheese Party (not that she told me - but I could tell). Bob and George (left) give Keller a big squeeze! It's a Keller Sammich - with Cheese!!!

Ted and Cara's Madeleine had come over with a feather boa that Keller could NOT get enough of - she kept trying to eat it after I ended up with it. A few times during the night, if I didn't watch the length of the boa wrapped around my neck, I would suddenly feel a sharp TUG as Keller attacked it.

Anyway, she did great, we worked on manners as people arrived, and she actually passed out for a good hour during the event, to the point of which I had to make sure she was OK. Totally not-Kellerish.

By the way, Keller did great with Duncan for the few days she was over there during our Splash-In trip. I didn't have cell phone service while we were in Whalan, so I got this text message from Randy on Monday that said, "BTW, Keller loves bacon." Apparently he had been frying up some bacon and here's this little snout next to him that's poking up in the air and it's Keller sniffing the bacon-filled air that obviously she's never smelled anywhere else, living with vegetarians, and Randy says he thinks to himself, "I wonder if Keller likes bacon...?"

At The Spa?



We finally managed to remember to take a video of what Keller is like while taking a bath vs. afterwards. It is too, too funny and here's the YouTube link to it (you can also watch it on the side of this page). I think she knew a camera was rolling because she wasn't as crazy as times past!

Keller is going to Randy and Julie's today to spend time with Duncan for several days. I am certain they will have a blast!

Garden Dog


Keller's an excellent garden dog. Except when she walks in it. She hasn't for awhile, and she at least keeps the bees company. Look at how the Brock's/my garden faired this year! SO MUCH GOODNESS!!!!!

More Neenah

Oh yeah, and Keller met my cousins too, and her new best friend Duke (The Wonderdog). Remember Keller, to look up to and respect your elders!

L-R: Keller, Angie, Abbie, Alex (B-day Boy!), Duke, Me. :)

P.S. Thanks to Conni the Photographer and Brian the "Make Sure the Dogs Stay in Place" Photographer Helper.

Keller's Vacation

Keller's visit to Neenah summed up in a couple of words: "I could get used to this.....ahhhhhhhhhhh"
