And what are we searching for? You guessed it - where is our SNOW??? It IS December. Yesterday it was close to 70 degrees, and at 5:00 a.m. today we had a nasty thunderstorm. Then the temps dropped and the trees were all iced over. And we hear there were tornadoes in parts of Missouri. But absolutely NO snow. Maybe 2011 will bring us some snow.
On this last day of 2010, many of our blogger furiends have been reminiscing about the past year. We know that for many of you it has been a very tough year, and we are hoping things will only get better for you. We feel very blessed to have had a decent year. We have had our ups and downs, but we like to think about the pawsitives. The highlight of our year had to be the arrival of our newest pack member, Ciara. As much as we like to portray her as the furamily pest, she really is our little sweetheart. And we also had to undergo another scare with the evil "C" for Phantom. But he has once again pulled through a bad time, and we are all thrilled he is headed into 2011 with all of us. Thunder, the kid in the middle, just seems to sail through life with ease. In just a few months, TD will be five years old. It is hard to believe it is already that long, but every day with Thunder has been a true joy.
We are also very grateful for all the friends we have. We have shared the good times and the bad times with so many of you. We have gained some new friends and sadly lost quite a few, some have crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and some are just gone . . . . . The hardest part of these losses for all of us is the not understanding why. Sometimes life just doesn't make a lot of sense. And so it is time to move forward and hope for 2011 to bring good health, happiness, friendship, and lots of fun to all.
Wishing you a wonderfully joyful New Year in 2011.
Loving woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and the Momster
Its been a pleasure getting to know you this year and look forward to following you into 2011

We're sorry about the snow -- or lack thereof!! If any dog should have snow, it's a Sibe, right? Although we have learned that terriers like snow too --- I know we enjoyed it last year when we were in St. Loulis with the folks.
ReplyDeleteIt has indeed been an up and down year -- but I guess most are like that. We do hope Phantom will be OK -- and that Thunder and Ciara too and all their human munchkins and grownups will enjoy a Happy New Year.
Wirey love,
Jake and Just Harry
Mom would gives you all of our snow if her could!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year my furiends!
Woofs and Licks,

Weird weather! It was 65 here yesterday and overnite we had super bad thunder storms. Morgan slept on my pillow with me. Today is still warm and breezy.
ReplyDeleteI don't make resolutions anymore, but I do resolve to get to OP to meet you guys in 2011.
Have a safe weekend.

Well come on over to Oregon! We got our snow yesterday, Thursday. Of course, it would not be deep enough for you 3 big pups, it was only an inch or two! But more is on the way....
ReplyDeleteWe look forward to another wonderful year with you all!
Happy New Year!!!
woo woos, Tessa
Hppy New Year to you all.

happy new year to you all. you'll surely get your snow soon. keep up the vigilant watch
ReplyDeleteHappy new years! I hope snow comes sooon!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to all the OP Gang, including Mom and Dad! This snow business is a little over rated this year. We got about 14 inches between yesterday and today, our driveway is packed and we are snowbound. We had to squeeze out our back door and shovel the porch off and when I let Stella in, she was covered with the stuff.
ReplyDeleteDo we care? Not a bit! We are going to enjoy some picture taking outback tomorrow and will put them up for you all to see.
Cheers and hugs,
Jo, Stella and Ali Z who watches it through the window!
Maybe 2011 will bring you lots of snow. You know what they say...be careful what you wish for. hehe.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! :)
Warm here yesterday and today too. Every bit of the snow is NOW GONE!!
ReplyDeleteI hope that every one of your dreams come true in 2011
Yappy New Years to you's too. 2010 has been a years of ups and downs so let's keep our paws crossed dat 2011 has a lot more ups and a lot less downs.
ReplyDeleteLove, Amber
PeeEss...Nice pictures guys...Sorry bout the lack of snow. We never see snow here in Florida. Supposed to go to 80 over da weekend. Sure don't feel like Christmas and New Years.
Happy 2011 OP Pack!
ReplyDeleteHappy 2011.
ReplyDeleteGuess you and Khyra are in the same weather zone - snowless.
Paws crossed that you gets some snow! We FINALLY got some here yesterday. I sure hope the snow fairy finds its way to your house soon.
ReplyDeleteI am very much glad that 2010 was good to you and I am sending you wishes that your 2011 will bring you health, joy and lots and lots of happiness!

I've notified all the snow shippers that OP KS is to get snow ahead of PA!
ReplyDeleteWe've seen the reports about the nasty storms in MO and AR - pretty bizarre fur the end of December -
Paws and fingers khrossed here fur 2011 to be better - to say 2010 was a challenge would SO be an understatement -
I'm khonstantly trying to whap Mom bakhk into realty - not sure if my whapping is working but I'll keep at it -
Hugz&Khysses,
Khyra and Khompany
My mum, dad and I all wish you and your whole family a happy new year and here's to 2011 being a really good year!

ReplyDeleteHappy Woo Years to you three and the Parents as well! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too. I like that you're focusing on the pawsatives... We'll follow with you on that front!
ReplyDeleteCiara has been a real gift to all of us this year, and Phantom's winning battle against the nasty C is a huge gift. Finally, I love the "no-drama" Thunder. We all need an easy guy like Thunder in our lives!
Most of all, the OP Pack is a gift to all of us! I am so happy to have found you. Happy New Year.
Happy new year my friends, I'll do my best snow dance for you that you get lots of the white stuff!
ReplyDeleteAll our snow has melted and left behind dirty puddles. Yuck!!! I hope you get some snow soon!

Oh Phantom, Ciara and Thunder,
ReplyDeleteWe understand exactly what u mean...Our lil brother Shadow here gets referred to as the DeVIL BOY!But we wouldn't trade him for ANYTHING in the world. He has brought so much joy and warmth to our home...
We sometimes wish he would grow up faster but then again we don't want to let go of the puppy steps, puppy yelps and every adorable puppy trait of his.
We wish u and your entire family a very very HAPPY, safe, healthy and peaceful NEW YEAR.
Hope you Mom and Dad are better now. And hope your ears are getting better too.
And BeST of LUCK on finding the snow. Are u sure some puppy hasn't stolen it?
wags, Bud, Gin n Shadow
pee ess: we are glad u liked the lil book we sent u. And that it made u laugh.
Yeah, crazy weather, eh? It's just not right, I tell ya! Happy new year anyways!

I've had a lot of ups and downs in 2010. Sometimes the downs seemed to overshadow the ups.
ReplyDeleteIt snowed several times this past week but it either didn't stick or had melted by the end of the day. Can't say I was disappointed about it.
Happy New Year! May 2011 bring us all nothing but goodness!
We are proud to have met you and your pack. Thanks for sharing your times with us and we look forward to 2011
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post.
ReplyDeletewe hope you get your snow soon. Sadly our has all gone now.
Lookin forward to lots of stories and fun in 2011.
