Guess what?

Callie is one year old today. As you can see she still hasn't grown into those huge ears of hers. Dad says they are big but she has no network since she is deaf.

Happy Birthday Sister!!

I got to herd sheep too!

This is me doing an awesome job herding those sheep. I was doing my fetch. Dad was in front of the sheep so you can't see him but I am right where I was supposed to be. We were practicing my outrun but it kind of confused me. I didn't know why Dad kept telling me to go out?? I was supposed to go around to the front of the sheep and turn them..

Callie is doing it!

We had a great time herding today. Callie had a go at it. As you can see she is one fast heeler! We need to get a bit more control out of her but she has really good instinct. It seemed she knew what to do better than Dad did.
We had a beautiful day. The sun was shinning and none of that nasty wind..

Water fun..

Sure wish we were at the lake today but no that nasty Mother Nature has decided to put Spring on the back burner. We have like 40 degrees out and the wind is blowing. Of course we don't mind but Mom and Dad think it is cold for some reason. Where are their fur coats?
No herding today perhaps tomorrow. We sure hope it warms up a bit or at least the wind dies down..

Louie got the stick!

Louie jacked the stick from me again. As you can see I let him have it. He thought he was somebody.. Mom laughs because he jacks it and runs way up on the beach with it and drops it. She has to chase after him to get it to throw it for me again..
It got cold here again in Texas. We have heard that the snow is blowing in other places in the US. Guess Spring really isn't in the air yet..

Whole lot of shaking going on!

That pup doesn't even wait until she gets out of the water to start shaking.. She really likes the water as you can tell..
It was rainy again today.. Still threatening more rain right now..
We have some exciting news though. We get to go herding on Saturday. Oh ya sheep. Lori got rid of all her goats but she has lots of lambs. Of course we can't herd them yet..

Wordless Wednesday!

Water sports!

Both Callie and I were after the stick. Mom thought we looked like a couple of submarines here. As you can see I got a whole body length on her. I am afraid that someday really soon she will be just as fast as I am..
It threatened rain again today but by the time mom got home we had a beautiful day. No rain for Dad's small garden..

We're flying!

The little pup is at it again.. I got it though and she doesn't have a chance..
We have kind of an overcast day today and very windy. Not sure if it will rain but it sure looks like it...

Smelling the Flowers!

It is beginning to look like Spring here in Texas. Louie found some pretty flowers to smell while we were at the lake yesterday. Of course he wasn't really smelling flowers, as he was looking for some tasty bones.. We do manage to find a few each time we are there. Of course mom follows us saying "yuck"

She's a pest!

Callie was continually trying to take the stick away from me last night. Louie just looks on waiting to see who will snatch it. She still isn't quite big enough to jack it from me though..
Not sure if we will make it to the lake today. It is really nice outside and when that is the case everyone is at the lake. Just no place for 3 wild heeler's to run.

One Wet Blue Man!

Yepper we made it to the lake when Mom got home. We were a bit disappointed at first. There was humans all over fishing.. Mom took us for a long walk trying to wear us out. Finally some of those humans left so our spot was empty. We played in the water for quite some time. Mom says mission accomplished again. We are all napping now although it is just about supper time... We promise not to close our eyes..

Callie the pest!

I went out to get the stick that mom threw and look at what the pest did! She wasn't going to let me get it.. Does anyone want this cute little pest? Don't tell mom I am trying to get rid of her!!! Ok I am just kidding. She certainly does keep things interesting..

Wordless Wednesday!

I got it!!

We had a beautiful day. We went to the lake.. As you can see we got to play in the water.. Callie is so proud she got the stick away from me. Little pest..
It sure was a nice surprise when mom came home. She got out the leashes and off we went..
Right now we are all napping. Mom says it worked. Not sure what she means by that??

What is it?

While at the lake Mom let us play in some really tall weeds. I of course saw something.. I kept running in and out of the weeds trying to find it again.. I never did find it but not for the lack of trying..
We have a beautiful day today. Finally we have some sun to dry out the backyard..
Dad is busy mowing the yard for the first time of the season. Of course we are all parked on the window seat making sure he does it right...

Who's got who?

We made it to the lake today as you can see. Louie and Callie were playing their usual game of grab the lease only Callie and Louie both have Callie's leash..
We had a bit of excitement while we were working our way to our favorite spot on the other side of the dam. Louie and Callie went ahead and they spotted a little boy and his dad. Well the little boy decided to run when he saw them and of course they thought he wanted to play. Mom quickly yelled at the kid not to run. What good would it do for mom to yell at the 2 deaf reds.. I had a good sniff of their tackle box and left a little pee-mail. Mom quickly gathered us all up and left.. Sure hope that little bi-ped didn't leave any pee-mail of his won..

On wet pup!

Mom got this picture of Callie after she had been playing in the water. She looks like she is trying to think of what to do next.. Perhaps jack my stick again? Now that is one wet dog..

Bird hunting!

Mom look at the bird! Can we take him home? Hey you reds you have to catch him first! We tried are hardest to catch that bird but he was just to fast. He had an advantage, he could fly. Heeler's don't fly..
We are on our 3rd day of rain today. Dad the house husband has been trying to clean the floor all day but he finally just gave up.. To many heeler footprints.

Who's got the stick now?

See how deep in the water I am? Those reds won't dare come out this far. They just stand in the shallow water and wait for me. They are both pests..
