Perfect Weather

After a weekend of gorgeous weather and lots of outdoor activity, I have three very tired pugs on my hands.

We finally got our first taste of Fall here in FL and this weekend was perfect pug weather.  The pugs could get out and run and go on long walks and I didn’t have to worry about them getting overheated.  We kicked the air conditioning off and opened all the doors and windows and the pugs and Cupid had full run of the house and could go in and out from the screened in porch to the house as much as they pleased.  They just love having free run like that.

And the pugs all got baths on Sunday along with some toenail clipping.  They didn’t enjoy that quite as much as they did the good weather, but they sure do smell nice.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

All Tuckered Out

After a hard day of trick or treating, the pugs were mighty tired.  They usually catch a little nap in the evenings, but on Halloween night there was no rest for the weary.  So, yesterday was a very quite day.  All I heard was the soothing sound of pug snoring.

Trick or Treating

We went for our usual after work walk last night, but to Henry’s dismay we headed out the door in costume.  The boys and Luna were all dressed up and as we made our way through the neighborhood we stopped at a few of the houses in the neighborhood for some trick or treating.  When Henry realized what we were doing, he no longer seemed to care about his costume and he was a very happy boy.

They got a ton of treats, ranging from carrots to frosted mini wheats to Beggin’ Strips.  They loved it!

After the walk, it was time to man the door and hand out candy to the neighborhood kids.  The pugs like seeing all the kids dressed up, although they were a little bit barky as they were unsure as to why we had so many visitors last night.

All in all, it was a really good night.  I hope everyone had a great Halloween!

Happy Halloween

It is the last day of October
And we’re causing a stir
Time to get all dressed up
Glad we rested up
We’ll walk ‘round the hood
Cause we’re all looking good
Nice and sporty we’re dressed
They’re all so impressed
Two handsome football players
Answering Super Bowl prayers
With the girl leading a cheer
Have no more fear
There is nothing scary
Just some pugs that are hairy
At OBP it can be seen
This year’s costumes for Halloween

Enjoy and have a safe night!  For fun, we have also uploaded pictures from past Halloweens to Flickr.

Rainy Days

This weekend was pretty rainy and gloomy here in FL.  Which, surprisingly, made for a good weekend.  All the pressure of getting out and doing yard work and getting the grass cut was eliminated by the rain and we just took some time to relax on Sunday.  We even baked cookies on Sunday (something we haven’t done in years).  They were warm and tasty and we munched on them while watching the Redskins get blown away by the Patriots.

The pugs seemed to enjoy the downtime.  Although, Benjamin & Luna were not happy about getting their paws wet on several occasions this weekend.

We also worked on putting the finishing touches on Benjamin, Henry & Luna’s Halloween Costumes.  The boys’ costumes needed to be taken in at a few places, so they had the tough task of standing still while we measured, nipped and tucked.  Henry did a good job, but this type of thing is nearly impossible for Benjamin.  After he was released from captivity, he ran around the sofa for about ten minutes getting all of that energy that we stifled out of his system.

While the rain here was much needed, I kept thinking that our friends in California could use the rain way more than we could.  I hope all the blog readers in Southern California are doing well and please know that we are thinking about you.
