Luna Tuna really is a fish

So our Luna Tuna (as we like to call her) is growing up super fast. Hard to believe that we’ve only had her for about 7 months, and that she’s already so grown-up looking. I used to carry her our for piddles at 3 a.m. when she was only 15 lbs! Now she’s pushing 85 lbs!

Puppy love

Cute? Who me? Aw shucks.

The innocence is a sham. Don't believe those eyes for a second.

We pined for her while we were away. She missed us for about a day and then got over it, ’cause Grama had the treats and filled her bowl! I’m sure she’s well over 80 lbs now. [...]

In memory

Yesterday marks one year since we said goodbye to our big dog, Zeus. I’ve been thinking about him a lot all week. I can honestly say though, that thinking about him now doesn’t move me to tears quite the way it did for such a long time. I think having Luna in our lives now has [...]

Luna, in moving pictures

I’ve finally found a bit of time  to figure out this newfangled video thang we have called the Canon EOS 7D, particularly to investigate if I could deal with the 7D’s super huge HD video on my own Mac (Chris has Final Cut on his machine and has invested a lot of time learning how to [...]

Our new mistress of the night: meet Luna

Well well well. It has been one heck of a week at la casa del Mulholland-Kebbel. And it’s only Wednesday! Where do I start? It’s kind of like we had a baby. A fury black one with razor sharp baby teeth and two speeds — full bore or all stop.

Luna, our little lunatic

World, [...]

A legend in his own time

The big dog

Well, where do I start? I’m feeling pretty numb. Today was the day we said good bye to my big monster. We made the decision several weeks ago. Zeus has been progressively having more problems with his hind legs, seemingly losing more and more sensation, stepping on the tops of his back feet [...]

Little dog in a big dog world

Last night we dogsat Bondi, a roughly 7 or 8 (I think) year old Boston Terrier. We were supposed to have him most of the week because our friends’ baby was supposed to have surgery, but the little man has a chest cold and it wasn’t to be. So the little bat-eared dude went home tonight, [...]

Hams for Thanksgiving

Haming it up

This was the first time the family was together at the new cottage in Coboconk (I know, I know its hilarious! People who live there call it “Coby”). The kids, Chris’s niece and nephew, were really into hamming it for the camera.

Squishy face

Mr. B is about 2 and a half, and he’s [...]

Zeus Yarn by Vergeknits

About a week and a half ago I received a treasure in the mail. I’m not yet sure what I’m going to do with it, but its already a very important memory for me.

Zeus yarn, a blend of brushings from my Saint Bernard and wool

My big monster dog, Zeus, an 11-year-old Saint Bernard, is certainly [...]
