A very special visitor, a bronze medal & snow

G'day Maties,
So much has been happening here lately...where do we begin.
Ok first of all we had a very special visitor come to stay. It's someone we all know and love.

Have you figured it out yet?????

Here's a clue...............




Yep...It's Brooke...Opy & Charlie's mum. We knew someone special was coming but pinky didn't say who it was. Brooke was a big hit with all of us but Lucy gave her the most kisses.

Brooke & Willow:
Brooke is so kind. We each got one of these cool toys but Lucy & Tess destroyed them pretty quickly.


While we were all sitting around drinking coffee & eating scones with jam & cream we noticed something outside...........SNOW!!!!!..... real snow this time....not just flurries but a proper snow fall. Here's the proof:

Crikey was it ever cold. When it stopped we all went for a walk around Leura. Tess got to walk with Brooke but D didn't bring her camera along. She was too busy trying to keep her hands warm in her pockets.

The other really cool think that's happened is Lucy & Willow's bronze medal win in the pawlimpic event of tug-of-war. The famous bra shot did us proud.


Lucy's medal tally is now one silver and one bronze and Willow's is one bronze. Congratulations girls.

Stay tuned for post 2 on Brooke visits the Leuradales.

Mack said...

Give Brooke some sugars from me when you see her again please.

This is prolly a dumb question, but is it "Summer" where you live, or do you call it "winter"?

Asta Marie said...

Wow guys...

Congratulations on all your medals...you're doing a great job winning....I can hardly believe there is snow there when it is so warm here....makes me shiver just thinking about it as it will arrive here all too soon.

And have a great visit with Brooke...it's always nice to share time with good friends....

Asta Marie, WFT

Jake of Florida said...

We loved that "bra shot." So congrats on your well-deserved medal.

As for the snow -- it's really hard for us to imagine as we wipe our brows from 90 degrees Fahrenheit. But thinking about you now will help keep us cooler!

Woofs,

Jake and Just Harry

River said...

Congratulations on all the medals! You all are so special! The bra shot is a howl! Snow, wow. It's been so hot here I can't imagine it--okay, I could stick my head in the freezer but I can't reach it! So nice of Brooke to visit and bring presents!

love & wags,
River

Petra said...

You're so lucky to have Brooke with you! I cannot believe that it is snowing at your house! It looks pretty, but I'm not ready for snow yet.

the Corgi Girls said...

Brooke!!! How cool!!! I bet you guys are going to get lots of belly and bum rubs!!!

Snow! Wow! Do you guys normally get much snow? We love snow, but of course that's opposite season compared to where we live, so we really love seeing pictures of your snow so we can long for winter here!!! We love to play in the snow!

Hope you have lots of fun!!!

SNOW, where do you live? We thought downunder had deserts and heat. But then we heard you have skiers, we are so confused about this. We are happy for you, a nice romp in the snow is divine. AND a bra well that is a tasty bit of yummy yummy yums, did you chew the clasps flat?

Chef said...

Oh no, did you say snow? After all the snow we had last winter I just couldn't look. I told myself your momma was shaking out the feather pillows.

Way to go on the awards, both of you. What a precious picture!

If Brooke is still visiting, give her a big slobbery xxxx for me.

If, you're not cross with slap-dash commentor me, you might like to play my tag... it'll be just one quirk each, if your Pinkies play too.

It is always nice to have friends come to stay. It is pretty hot here now, we could use a little snow.
That bra thing is great.
