November sunshine

Hello everyone and happy Sunday! It's a beautiful sunny morning for us. It's been a pretty good November so far. We found ourselves sitting on the deck again the past two days.

This past week was good. The yard work is all done. The hoses are unplugged. The propane tank for the generator got filled up. Today we will cover our Japanese Maple now that the leaves have all dropped. The shovels are by the garage door. We're ready for Winter!

We enjoyed a few walks with our pooches. The weather was gorgeous. We sat on a bench and took it all in. Merlot and Sherlock are doing wonderful. They are such good boys. They play well together and know how to entertain themselves. It is quite nice to watch. Now that we spend more time inside, they have had to adapt their puppy play...no running around in the living room please LOL! 

Aside from the backyard, our deck became their playground of sorts since we got them. They are now getting used to playing in the basement. No birds or squirrels to watch but there is plenty to do and lots of space. I have a number of enrichment activities planned for them for the Winter months.  And yes, the giraffe will also make its way to the basement 😊

Russell is just about two weeks away from his TKR surgery. He is ready. It will be good to have this behind us as we enter the holiday season.  Due to his surgery, we will not be able to attend our nephew's destination wedding in Punta Cana on January 4. Sean is hoping to arrange for a video stream so we can maybe watch it live. We will have our own little celebration with them at Christmas.

Those are my little news for today's blog. It is Grey Cup day. Not sure if we will watch the game but I hope to stay awake for the half time show...The Jonas Brothers. I love that group. Our HABS won last night, it was a good game. 

I leave you with some pics that I took last week and one of our Coop & Spicy. Without realizing it, I chose a photo of them that is similar to the one I took of Merlot & Sherlock a few days ago. I only noticed the similarity this morning 💕

Have a great week everyone!

Sherlock and Merlot at the ready (down & stay) to
begin their training session.



These two know how to dance and tussle...
it is all in the name of play.



A beautiful day for a walk at Edgewater Park
and a tender moment with the boys.



Chilling in the living room...Sherlock and 
Merlot have been asking for their own iPad.



Merlot saying "hang in there
Mr. Giraffe, I'll get you down"



Sherlock telling Merlot, "not so fast
buddy, I got him first'.


This November Friday morning sky was on fire.
