Cousins on Monday

Monday, Monday - for a change we have to say it is a good Monday because the horrible heat dome has lifted, and we have a dryer and cooler day with temps in the low 80s.

As our title shows, this is supposed to be a blog about US, The Woos!!!  But Mom convinced us to let her share a little about our cousins and the birthday party this weekend for Dad, our BIL, and our cousin Duncan.

Mom had to snap this pic of the cake very quickly as our human sister was just about ready to slice into it.  It was BIG and delicious and was served with ice cream.  We only know THAT because Mom told us. We did not get to go to the party or have any of the cake.  But Mom felt sorry for us and let us have some ice cream when she and Dad got home.

No human pics, but here is one of our cousins.

Awww - this is the birthday boy Duncan.  He is a shih tzu and he turned three on Saturday. 

 Awww - here he is with his younger brother Dexter. Do they remind you of any pups you know, like maybe Jakey, Arty, and Rosy?  Mom thinks Rosy must be related to Dexter somehow or other. And Duncan looks a bit like Jakey (and maybe even Angel Bilbo).

They are both very nice boys, well-behaved and sweet.  We are happy to have them as our cousins.  They live with the two boy grands Tyler and Brady.

Wait a minute, Mom.  Who is THAT?  He doesn't look like any cousin that we know!!!

Well, Mom tells us that we have to welcome a new cousin. 

Awww!!!  Meet Murphy!!!  He was adopted by the other grands (Kaeleigh, Jack, and Cambrie) on Saturday.  He comes from a local rescue shelter.  He was found running the streets in early July.  No one has claimed him so now he is Murphy.  He is a mix, but everyone seems to have a different idea of what he might be.  Mom thinks he might have some Lab, Rottweiler, Boxer, Dalmatian, and who knows what else.  He is on the skinny side, but we know the his new forever family will put some good weight on him.

He loves his new sister, Ruby.  Ruby has appeared here before.  The two of them are getting along so very well.  They play and play all day long.  Welcome, Murphy.

So that's our Monday news.  We wish we could tell you there is a new family member here too, but Mom says we three are all she needs:)
