I am consistently amazed at how Tumble can get the ball in places he can’t reach. He is very quick to signal me that he needs actual help and it is usually a very valid plea.

A few more images of the #northernlights #aurora #auroraborealis taken with my actual camera, not the iPhone. The colors are a little deeper and vibrant here. No editing. Impressive show!

Seeing this makes me understand why cultures have created so many stories about the sky and heavens.

Only bought a couple things at the con. Tumble got a dust sprite dog cookie and Keeschka is loving his Mothman catnip toy.

Spider dog, spider dog, does whatever a spider dog does.

Happy 🎃 👻 Halloween from Tumble!

Thank you! It was very relaxing and I got a lot of quality time in with these two. But all my best days are like that. :)

It is October! Which means a close neighbor starts decorating their yard with skellies! Here are a couple days. The first 2 images are the same day, the third yesterday. I don’t think they are quite updating daily.
Image of a yard with skeletons playing and climbing a tree there is also a giant fake spider climbing the tree underneath one of the two skeletons Image of front yard with skeletons and they have large spiders on leashes running around the yard Front yard of a house with skeletons lined up there is a 10 foot skeleton in the back, wearing a yellow wig wig, and a sparkly top and Samoa’s in front are eight skeletons with their arms in the air, somewhere in white wigs and all with like yellow bows This goes with the first two images. It is a full view of the full yard with all the skeletons, including the large 10 foot skeleton.

I took part in a watercolor technique class put together by Simon Says Stamp and Tim Holtz today. It was a YouTube live and I created a few tags while watching.

And I think I now have glitter in my eye.
Christmas gift tags with watercolor backgrounds, stamped sentiments, and watercolor die cut embellishments.

Keeschka acts so much like a dog. He knows Tumble plays with the ball, so he has started claiming it and playing with it. I will be in the other room, with Tumble sleeping nearby, and hear a thud, see the ball fly across the floor, and then see Keeschka running behind it.

He is so wonderful.

Happy 8 year anniversary to this photo op that was the result of miscommunication.
Photo op Minneapolis 2017. In front of blue background, I am on the right side of the photo looking to the camera. Jared Padalecki is on the left side of the photo with his hands around me, resting on my left shoulder. Jared is looking off camera to the left of the image, as if he was distracted and surprised by something off camera.

Tumble sat like this for about 2 hours last night at Dad’s. Enough that Dad’s smart ring registered over 200 steps - just from scratches!

This photo was 48% of the price it is today. I am glad we got this back then, but also, wow the prices have gone up so much.

Tumble is at the doctor today. We joked that he has an incurable condition called Inside Out Ears!

He is here because he is obsessively licking his feet. Probably allergies. We have a path to start down. But he was licking them pink so it is enough to get checked out.
Pale dog with pink bandana, sitting on lap with a human hand holding him. The ear that is visible is inside out. The dog is sad because he is at the vet.

New accessories today. He is still upset I made him get a public bath and strangers touched him. Also, he would like the bread I am eating.

Went to a fundraiser for a dog rescue (Red Lake Rosie’s Reservation) and Tumble had to endure PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT MAMA touching him and WARM WATER! But he smells nice and I would not let him roll in bird poop immediately after.

Had a second delivery today, this time to my rarely used front door. Opened door inside house and immediately shut it because AHHHHHH WASPS!!

Then had to psych myself up enough to even open the storm door outside to spray. After being stung last summer, I keep a nice can of Raid Wasp killer handy.

I need a good caption for this photo.
Blond dog wearing a red bowtie with white stars and a light blue bandanna with ladybugs on it, looking at the camera next to a slightly smaller in height, orange buff, and white cat who is also looking at the camera. They are brothers and partners in crime and they are demanding something from their mom probably treats.

He loves ball so much.

Shortly after I stopped the video he realized I was watching and demanded outside ball throwing time.

Tumble is so special and I love his personality.
