Turkey and all the great sides that come with Thanksgiving!
Last year me and my cousins each got our own plate...I can't wait!!

Another Fall has come and gone...
I miss the warmer weather but am excited for the Holiday Season!

WHAT I'M LOVING

 Snuggling up on the couch with Mom and Dad on cold nights! 


WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO

We've had a relaxing November-- it's been great!
I've been up to quite a bit of snuggling,

cooking in the kitchen with Mom, 

and playing with some new toys from my BarkBox

Not much!
Life has been pretty good lately.

Charlie Brown Thanksgiving was on TV last night and it's Mom's favorite!
She loves the cooking scene and I do, too!
I think I could probably help in the kitchen tomorrow like Snoopy.

WHAT I'M LISTENING TO

We are gearing up to start playing the Christmas music favorites starting Friday!


WHAT I'M WEARING

Well, I do have a new scarf to share with you in the coming weeks but Mom hasn't snapped any photos yet. Until then, here's more pictures of me in my favorite Winter hat...

And maybe I'll wear a turkey like last year!

Family & Food all weekend long!


WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH

Christmas and the Holiday Season!
Mom and Dad are also headed on a vacation so I'll get to spend a week with my Gigi and Uncles in their new house!! I can't wait!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHRISTMAS TRADITION

Around these parts, we love it all! 
I can't wait to celebrate the holiday season a little each and every day with my humans.

October has come and gone so now it's time for a Fall Bucket List update!

  2. Celebrate Some Great Humans In My Life 
  3. Halloween Costume
  4. Football
  5. Visit the Pumpkin Patch
  6. Thankful Treat Jars for Puppy Friends
  7. Fall Homemade Dog Treats
  8. Play With Leaves
  9. Fall Morning Walks
  10. Farmer's Market
That's right, 8 down and only 2 to go for this next month!
Let's look at the ones we checked off...

Celebrate Some Great Humans In My Life

(And Pups, too!)

So far, we celebrated...
Madelyn's birth
Aunt Kori's Birthday
Uncle Tom's Birthday
Aunt Brittany & Uncle Kevin's Wedding
Aunt Karen & Uncle Jimmy's Birthday
Aunt Katy's Birthday
Gigi's Birthday
Uncle Scotty's Birthday
AND 
Eddie's Birthday was in October, too! 

Phew, lots of celebrations.
I even helped Mom wrap Gigi's gift before heading to her birthday party
We got her two pretty Stella and Dot items!
We were going to use the shark birthday wrapping paper but then decided to go with the simple solution of a bag instead

Once I posed for the picture, I thought it was time to open the gift...
...but I had to wait. After all, it wasn't my birthday!

Halloween Costume


Check! 
I was an Ewok this year

Football

We've been watching but I haven't been bringing them much luck :(
Both the Ravens and the Redskins have had a shaky start...the Ravens more then the Redskins
Sometimes what's going on outside is more interesting than the games!
But Shh, Don't tell Mom and Dad
Oh well, I still enjoy watching with my humans!
And at least Mom and Dad are both happy about their Fantasy Football teams, so far!!

Visit the Pumpkin Patch

We almost didn't squeeze this in but we made it!!
Although, too late for pretty pumpkins to take home.
We enjoyed seeing the Farm though!

Fall Homemade Dog Treats

Mom made some delicious ones this weekend
We will be sharing the recipe next Moose Monday!

Play with Leaves

The best part of Fall is playing in the leaves, right?!

I like to chase, sniff, and try to eat them.

Fall Morning Walks

I sure will miss these when it gets so cold and we have to shorten our walks
but for now I sure do enjoy them!

Farmer's Market

We went, we saw, we bought delicious Fall foods!
Between the Farmer's Market and the Farm Share, Mom has made some yummy Fall foods.
I enjoy assisting her in the kitchen while she cooks and sometimes I even get a small taste!

Left on the agenda for November...

A Dog Friendly State Park AND Thankful Treat Jars for my Puppy Friends!

I can't wait!!
Have a good week!
