IT'S TRUE COLOURS THURSDAY - GREEN

Good Morning,
Welcome to
True Colours Thursday.
Miss Blue
picked the colour, GREEN,
for today.

Here's our man,
Piper,
strutting around in the
GREEN grass
of our front yard.

And about two days later,
Ruairi,
shows us that the seasons
are changing fast -
the leaves are beginning to fall.

Yesterday,
Arlo brought his sister, Abby,
to visit us at
Rocky Creek Farm.

He strutted around all day
in his GREEN muscle shirt-
check out that cute puppy dog physique!!


The colour for next week will be
ORANGE-
why don't you play along?

WHAT TO DO ON A FALL DAY

This morning as
Dad left for school,

we stepped out onto the porch
and looked around.

The cattle are grazing
on this wonderful
rainy Fall day.

The leaves are getting
more colorful every day.

The blue birds have left
our lone little birdhouse.

Ruairi has already
been bathed and dried.

So has Piper.

We girls wait in apprehension,
because we know we'll be next.

And then after everyone is
bathed and dried,
the stripping and clipping will start.

And it will look like Mom has
been plucking chickens
in our living room.

Lucky Ivy -
she's just out
playing in the rain.

TRUE COLOURS THRUSDAY - RED

We decided to play along with
Maggie and Mitch.
The colour for today is
RED.
Lilly is sporting
our clan tartan -
and a cute tam
made from it
that she borrowed
from her friend, Abby!
Maybe one day,
Mom will make her a kilt.

WE WERE PATIENTLY WAITING....

We knew yesterday
was the day.

The reminder had been
on our sidebar for weeks!!

We had been licking our lips
in anticipation.

We knew there was plenty of hamburger
in our freezer -
all she had to do was
get some out and cook it.

We all love veggies -
except we don't eat onions -
we know they can be toxic
to some dogs.

We have plenty of plates.

We have good manners.

We always clean up after we eat.

We wonder
WHY OH WHY
did our silly secretary
forget
TACO DAY??

We'll make sure that doesn't
happen again!!

BIG BOY HAIR CUTS

Remember how in every picture we took,
Jock and Fergus
were always together.

Even now,
though they live in the same state
but over a 100 miles apart,
they are still doing the same things.

You might follow Jock's blog
because he is now
Todd
and lives with a herd of
Golden Retrievers at Golden Pines.

This weekend,
Todd got his first big boy haircut!!
His groomer
left him looking more like a puppy
than most groomers do
and we think he looks so sweet -
he has an adolescent
Scottie look -
we just hope he's not going through
"the terrible twos!!".

Liam (Fergus) who lives with his
big brother Monty,
really got the big boy look!!

Check him out.

Some things never change -
remember those eyes were always
the focus in every picture
we took of him -
and he's still got
those wonderful
"Piper" eyes.

WHEW!! WHAT A BUSY WEEKEND!!

As most of you know,
this past weekend
was the
Southwestern Virginia
Scottish Terrier Club's
Specialty Show.

We had to stay at home,
but Mom and Dad
went both days
and really enjoyed it.

There was a silent auction.

A bazaar table with 100's of
Scottie items.

Lectures on ring presentation,
Scottie grooming, health issues
and reproductive issues.

Old friends got to visit
with one another.

And Mom made a lot
of new friends.

XOXO
