Cyanide

Hi there, I just have to post these pictures for Laid out in Lavender. I know her favourite thing to photograph is decay and I look at this in my yard every day and think how much she would enjoy photographing it.

 

I'm sure my photos don't do it justice, but here they are:

 

 

 

 

 

I actually half did this at 7pm last night as I was sitting in my deserted office, waiting for my husband and getting in the way of the cleaner. I was rather grumpy, as you can imagine, so I’m not going to update my answers, because they are too funny. By the way, number 2 – TOTALLY happened this morning! HEE HEE. 

Each player answers these questions about themselves. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 peeps and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog. You should let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

There, that should keep you going for a while hee hee

Hi! Boomer is here!!!!!! For more pictures go to my husband's site. He put up some pictures last night.

 

So when we arrived there were 5 pups. 1 was from WHisper's litter and was ten weeks old and the other 4 were from Sorrento's litter - we wanted a pup from this litter. We went with my husband's mum and dad, who were also getting a Sorrento puppy. The first one I noticed was Boomer (although not so called at this point obviously) as he was MUCH bigger than event he ten week old puppy! And the other one that immediately drew our attention was the runt. The runt went straight to my husband's 13 year old brother and didn't leave him the entire time. However, the rest of the family didn't like the runt as he was small and gangly. After the loss of their 18 year old son, my husband's mum and dad didn't want to break anyone's heart. So when his sister bonded with another pup, they were in a quandry. My husband did some negotiating and got them both dogs for the price of one!!! The breeder was so brilliant and generous. We were going to offer her some more money ourselves to make up the difference but she wouldn't take it.

Anyway, I am digressing. I sat down on the grass and Boomer (then known as "green check boy" because of his identification ribbon) immediately came up to me and plonked himself on my lap. Later he did the same thing again. ANd then my husband took him but he came back to me again! SO we knew he was ours. He is over 6kgs and a whole kg bigger than his brothers. He is going to be huge - which will be perfect for my ginormas mutant Kazi.

So, finally here are the pictures! First - the meeting video. It was a lot more restrained than I expected.

 

 

And a bunch of photos . . .

 

 

Dustin is the wee runty isn't he a halmark card?

 

 

 

The other puppy Hubby's folks got

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's raining, it's cold. A good day for staying in and watching telly - and for having a nice game of tug-o-war. . .

 

 

That's right, I did not get my husband a pillow and then tell him to get off it because Kazi couldn't fit on there. I did not ooo and ahhh at her and take pictures while my husband had to retreat to the lounge. Honest.

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, so we didn't get to choose our new puppy as I had originally thought, but we did get to snuggle them. They are so cute!!!!!

 

SO without further ado,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4 weeks until we can choose oone, 6-8 weeks till he can come home!

Just when I thought I had nothing to post (see previous duck post) My dog decided to play with a cockroach. . .
