Kentucky Horse Park

We went to the Kentucky Horse Park with David and Eunhee on Friday after Thanksgiving rather than shop.

Amelia

This is Amelia Bedelia. She was a stray. And now she's not.

Nap Time

The whole brood is sleepy this week because we have been so busy. We are also in recovery from the 24/7 presidential election coverage and, of course, Tuesday night. (Whoopee for Obama!) Husband will be worn out after insulating the crawl space this afternoon, so maybe we'll take a picture of his inevitable snooze.

The dogs really like the couch and it really doesn't seem to matter to them when it is occupied.

OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

October-November

It has been a wild week. While Wife was taking a shower on Thursday morning, the dogs learned how to open the back gate. Wife soon noticed that the yard was empty and went into panic mode. Panic mode involved enlisting our next-door neighbor to drive around the neighborhood behind the house while Wife, who was wearing red plaid pajama pants and light blue Crocs among other things, ran all over with leashes in one hand and a bag of treats in the other. Luckily, the dogs found some dogs at a nearby house and was able to round them up.

Thursday's taste of freedom launched a campaign by the dogs to escape again ala The Great Escape. We have plugged all the holes for the moment.

Sleepy dog.

A couple of our few, and by few we mean 12-15, trick or treaters.

The beautiful leaves in our yard and the neighboring yard.

The dog park!

Isn't he cute?

New rug. We got a bargain because there is a small stain. It is cat approved.
