Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day coffee ... looking out the window at Starbucks.

It was a little chilly outside so Stella got to wear her fuzzy heart sweatshirt.

Passed out after a long day of play.

Auto Show & Dinner at Sunset

I figured I'd check out the Auto Show with Mary & Nancy since I'll be getting a new car in December. The Acura TLX has a push-button gear shift. I wonder what happens if Stella steps on them while I'm driving.

We walked to The Loop in Avondale for dinner.

Sleepover Week

Rob & Lauren are on vacation so Cora & Stella had a week-long sleepover date. Neither one seems to care about the giant tennis ball behind them.

Afternoon walk on a beautiful day.

Cora tipped over on the steps. Stella looks pretty tired too.

Play hard ... pass out!

Throwback Superbowl Sunday

Another Sunday ... another trip to Panera to make all of the customers & staff smile.

Google got a new Kyjen Slo-Bowl. It makes eating fun & slow!

Google wanted to play ... not help Mary install a new kitchen faucet.

Throwback Super Bowl XXVII at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena ...
Owner Jerry Jones congratulates Coach Jimmy Johnson on the field after the Dallas Cowboys defeat the Buffalo Bills 52-17.

Emmitt Smith strikes the Heisman pose while Bob Costas interviews Troy Aikman & Michael Irvin in the locker room.

Jerry Jones & Jimmy Johnson hoist the Vince Lombardi Trophy & celebrate their win in the locker room.

Google

Google likes lazy weekends, lounging in his bunny suit ...

... & relaxing poolside.

Watching Stella's photo shoot.

Google has an extensive wardrobe. Here he is in his banana suit. I'm wearing my Arrested Development Bluth's Frozen Banana t-shirt so he doesn't feel too self-conscious.

New Friend

Stella has a new playmate in the hood. Patton is an English Cocker Spaniel puppy. He's so playful & she loves him.

Playdates make Stella sleepy!

Stella Gets Mail!

Stella LOVES getting mail … especially when it's a care package from the Cohen family with Dorann's homemade dog biscuits!

The Turkey Dinner Bones & Tidbits were made from turkey, carrots, green beans, potatoes, gravy, eggs & wheat flour. The Dessert Cookies were made from banana, oats, peanut butter, eggs, wheat flour & parsley (for fresh breath). YUM!

Hey gimme a treat already!

I don't think Stella will ever eat a store bought treat again. These are delicious!
