Moose Monday: March Madness Picks

Happy Moose Monday!

As I mentioned last week, March Madness started last Thursday and it is quite a big deal in our household. Mom and Dad make brackets every year.

This year, we have a family tournament challenge going and we decided it was time I have my own bracket!

To pick my teams, Mom and Dad went through each game presenting me with two treats from which to choose, each treat representing the teams for that game

Some were quick grabs while others took some thinking on my part before I could decide
 

Let's just say, I probably  won't be bringing  home any money based on my picks but I had fun doing it and even more fun cheering on the games this past weekend with Mom and Dad!
You never know, maybe there will be some big upsets!

Have a great week!

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday!

 Today is a special Friday because its Grandma Lauren's Birthday!!


Celebrating with her later today will definitely be a top favorite of the week!


And now for some traditional Friday Favorites

ONE

St. Patrick's Day
I talked about our St. Patrick's Day celebrations a little bit in yesterday's post, here.
I hope you all had a great day!
Mom cooked up Corned Beef and Cabbage and when she got home from work took a walk to the beer store to get some Guinness to go with it. It was the perfect St. Patrick's Day evening if you ask me!

We also got this adorable card from Grandma Lauren and Uncle Scotty
On the inside it says "...but I don't have a licker license." :)

TWO

Buster (& Cooper, too)
Last weekend Buster joined our fam!
Uncle Jim got a new little pug puppy and  he sure  is a cutie!

Mom and I went to meet him on Sunday
At first, I was a little scared of the little guy running all around
After I hid under the table for a few minutes, I realized he was just a little pup who wanted to play
And then we had a blast running around!

Madelyn loved playing with us on Sunday, too!

Uncle Drew is also getting a pug puppy who joined the family yesterday!
Cooper looks adorable and we can't wait to meet him!
Here is a snap we got from Uncle Jim
We will be meeting him on this Sunday and I'll share more pictures next week

I helped Mom put together these Welcome Baskets for each pup and we brought them along with a few hand-me-downs from my puppy stage for Buster and Cooper!

Puppies sure do make you tired, I slept the entire ride home this past Sunday

THREE

This face.
We've noticed a trend in some of my pictures lately
It tends to happen especially when my BarkBox arrives- I just can't wait to dive in and eat all of the delicious treats! 
 

FOUR

My Emoji Pillow
Mom and Dad tried to buy a silly emoji pillow gift for Aunt Kori but when it arrived it was the wrong one, so I inherited a super cool and big toy!
 
One moment I'm watching TV chewing my pillow
The next I'm sound asleep

FIVE

March Madness
We love March Madness in our household
This year I even made my own bracket for our family tournament challenge
I'll be sharing all the details of my picks on Moose Monday so be sure to stop back!

Have a great weekend!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hi Friends!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!I hope you all have some fun celebrations planned for today.

AND

Happy March Madness!Check back on Moose Monday for all the details on my bracket this year


Over the weekend we kicked off a few St. Patrick's Day celebrations of our own.
Our town has an annual St. Patrick's Day Parade and we were excited to attend this year!

I don't own a green collar and Mom couldn't find one when she looked quickly at the store last week but I wore my festive bow that I had and we had a blast!

While Mom got dressed, I tried to take a quick nap before we had to leave for the parade
I wasn't very pleased about waking up to go at first and well Mom was overly excited


 I was still a little skeptical when we got there...

But once things got started it turned out to be so much fun!
There was even a dog on a skateboard

I got so much love and attention from kids and other humans at the parade- I love making new friends
And as an added bonus, our local ice cream shop opened this past weekend so Mom treated me to my first Frosty Paw of the season!



St. Patrick's Day Celebrations aren't complete without some yummy treats!
My BarkBox arrived this week and had the perfect St. Patty's Day treat...

Shepherd's Pie Flavored Treats

They're delicious!

I'm looking forward to more celebrations all day long!
See you tomorrow for Friday Favorites AND you can meet one of my new Puppy Cousins! He's a cutie!

Moose Monday: Life Lately

Happy Moose Monday!

How was your weekend?
I had a perfect weekend with my humans but before we get to this weekend, let's talk about life lately in general

Last weekend we kicked off Friday with my one of my favorite treats, a Pupachino
 

On Saturday we were in Maryland for Uncle Kevin's birthday party
While we were there, Mom popped into a local dog store and got Pupcakes for me, Lexie & Lucy
She also got me a treat to eat while we waited for Dad, this Canoli
Both were delicious treats, enjoyed by all!

Last week, I found a perfect place to chew my new fortune cookie BarkBox toy
right in the middle of Dad folding laundry :)
 

This weekend we had the best Saturday, the weather was pretty nice but a little overcast
We decided to go for a long walk and even hit the Dog Park for our first visit this Spring!
There were lots of fun friends to play with and I was so excited
I got a little muddy while playing so I went straight from our walk into the tub for a bath

After my bath, we took a ride to run some errands
 

When we got home, we watched a little of the Harry Potter Weekend on TV
  
 
(which included a few naps, of course)

We ended the day with a few treats and snuggles in bed
 

Sunday, Mom and Dad started a Juice Cleanse
I took one look at their juice and decided to stick with my Bacon Bone
 

This morning, here's what I looked like...
Monday Already?!?

Have a great week!!
