Thankful Thursday





We have many things to be thankful for today. Let's start with the awards.




Riley and Star gave this sweet award to "all our friends who have always been there for us and support us no matter how crazy we get!" Riley and Star, you are always so sweet and adorable, never crazy. Thanks.




These two very sweet awards are from
Twinkie. The rules are so simple. You mention who gave it to you, and you spread the love. Here is what she said:
As I love all my furiends... You get the rest. Please, take it as a reminder that I am your furiend and I love you.




Twink is sponsoring the great GABE event. If you click here, you can read all about this special blogging fun.



Our next award comes from Mollie Jo and Bobo, the two country poodles. They wanted to share it with all of their loyal readers. We always enjoy reading the fun these two pups have.



Next up is an award that comes from our wonderful kitty furiend across the Big Pond,
Ginger Jasper. He said we have to say 7 beautiful things about ourselves and then pass it on to seven bloggers.


1. We are three very happy sibes who love life.
2. Phantom loves to nap in the sun to become even more beautiful.
3. Thunder Dunder loves to soak up the rain to be sure his coat is always fresh and clean.
4. Ciara is so beautiful because she reminds us everyday how we are all supposed to enjoy life to its fullest.
5. We all love to visit and read our furiends' blogs even if we never seem to have enough time.
6. We love to play games with Mom when she tries to take our picture with the flashy box.
7. We all enjoy sharing our awards with all of you.

We know that many of you have already received this award. We are going to offer it to the following bloggers:

1. Daisy the Dog
2. Mr. Koda, M.D.
3. Dennis the Viszla
4. Snowie Baby
5. Benny and Lilly
6. Gus, Callie, and Louie
7. Stella




The Sunshine Award is back again - we just wish we could get the sun to stay shining here instead of all this rain we keep getting. Thanks to Kathie who is from
Just a Happy Housewife. There were rules that came with this one, but we decided to skip the rules and share some sunshine with all of you. Thanks, Kathie.


We know how much we enjoy getting awards from all of you, so please do us a big favor and take one or more or all of these for YOU - we love all of you very much.

This week we were very surprised to receive a package in the mail from some great friends in Massachusetts. Miss Kylie and her sweet Mom sent us some gifts for participating in her 25 Days of Christmas. Many thanks to Kylie and her Mom.



In the box we found a Galileo nylabone, a turtle rope toy, and a cute little yellow puppy.


Thunder was very busy sniffing the turtle to see if he could detect the scent of Tony the Turtle.




But Ciara wasted no time showing TD the way to play with a turtle:) If you listen closely, you will hear some little noises - Miss PuppyPants had the hiccups.



Another thank you to everyone's pal, Frankie Furter, who sent us this beautiful Easter card.




Frankie, we hope the Easter Bunny fills your basket with at least 87 wonderful treats.


Woos, Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara

Pee Ess, Phantom hasn't been feeling great this week, so he decided he really didn't want to have his picture taken, but he sends his thanks to all for our wonderful awards and gifts.

  23. We were tail wagging happy reading about your well deserved awards and watching Ciara play with her turtle, but our happiness turned to sadness when we read that Phantom's not feeling well. That always makes us feel bad.

    We hope he is better ... SOON ... and we'll be sending a steady stream of well wishes his way.

    Love

  65. Hi Guys, the clips from the video are very easy but not great quality.
    Basically if you have your video clip in Windows Movie Maker and pause where you want the pic. You then go into Tools - go down and click Picture from Preview or words to that effect!!!
