i spell friendz a-w-e-s-o-m-e!

when i talked my mama into letting me start my bloggie back in february, i really didn't have any idea what to expect.  i thought i would just be woofin' my thoughts and adventures for my family to read, but, boy howdy, it has turned into so much more than the booker man could have evarrr imaginated!!  i have met so many super awesome doggies and kitties and hoomans from all over that world, not to mention that ya'll are all sorts of kind and generous.  i am so privileged to call ya'll my friendz and share in your lives and adventures!  so from the bottom of my labradoggie heart, i thank you bunches 'n tons for being my special friendz!

i need to apologize cuz this post is waaaay overdue.  a couple of ya'll have awardified me and mama, but we have not been very timely in showing our thanks.  i hope you can forgive us for being slower than that molasses stuff. 

first up is my way cute and spunky friend, miss olive!  

she lives with her mama and daddy in a magical place called texas, where there is an endless buffet of socks for every doggie.  isn't she a lucky ducky?  anywho, miss olive was super nice and gave me another versatile blogger award!  thankee, miss olive, for your generosity!!  with this awardie, i'm supposed to tell you 7 thingies about myself.  now, i'm cheating just a smidge cuz i'm going to list the same 7 thingies i listed the first time around.  i hope that's a-okay since i couldn't come up with another 7 thingies!

1. sometimes i talk in the middle of snoozin'.
2. i can jump the whole flight of steps to the deck!
3. i love to eat veggies! 
4. i love water, but i'm kinda scared of the hose thingie.
5. on my chest where my furs come together, it forms a "T".  my mama and daddy will ask me if i want my "T" (chest) scratched sometimes.
6. when i was born, my nose was black, but now it's starting to turn pinkish.
7. i wanna be a therapy dog when i grow up!
