Martha loves "Tuff Luv"???

Martha Stewart is having a contest to find the best blogs... We have got to be a contender - right???

Completely gratuitous...

Just some doggie "glamour shots" for your viewing pleasure...

Interior Decorating...

Mom and Dad got a new sofa a few weeks ago... Lily rolls with change like a pro - but I am more suspect and need some time to review the situation before I adjust... Anyway - I really liked the old sofa... particularly the pillow placement... this has nothing to do with style and everything to do with distance... THIS is how we used to snooze on the old sofa... [Be sure to note Lily's "pillow face"...]

Unfortunately, the new sofa and pillow arrangement offers absolutely no buffer zone! I can't believe that mom and dad didn't consult me before making this purchase!!! I just don't understand humans...

Are you ready for some football!!!

Not the season opener - but it is the first football Sunday!!! I think it is has been made pretty clear - Tuff is NOT a fan of clothes - Lily could take them or leave them - but on game day - you do what you have to do to show your Big Blue spirit!!!

And the spirit doesn't end there... there is a lot of Giants "luv" on Curley Street!!!

Big Blue Sky in support of the Big Blue Wrecking Crew!!!! E-L-I ELI!!!!!!!!! Go Giants!!!

I am ready for my close up Mama!!

Hurrican Hanna made today a rainy, quiet Saturday... So I decided to take some pics of the pups while M worked on the computer... [UPDATE: we are back in business!! Technical problems solved - so I can post with abandon again!!!] But back to the pics... I actually got some GREAT shots!!! Here is my sweet Tuff enjoying the first sunbeam after the rain ended...

Not to be out done - here is Lily Luv in her furry, fabulous glory!!! I have to use the shutter setting usually reserved for action shots... The icon on the camera is literally a stick figure of a sprinter!!!! Lily moves so quick I have countless pics of the side of her head if I don't use this setting... I have to sacrifice some light in the pics - but it is worth it!!!!

Technical Difficulties

We are having some issues with our laptop - which has prevented me from posting... I have some great new pics of the pups that I am really looking forward to getting up on the blog!

Ace and Sleve [A.K.A. Mom and Dad] are coming in for the weekend and may bring Tucker!!!
This isn't the best pic of Sir Tuck- but my resources are limited right now!!! Tuck is a silly, sweet "puppy" and makes the best monkey sounds when he wants some attention... He will be 3 years old on New Years Eve... The best thing about a Tucker visit is that Lily turns into a shy little girl... Our always confident, always one-step-ahead-of-her-big-brother-little-girl lets Tuck rule the roost... Unlike running over or through Tuffy, Tucker gets a VERY wide bearth!!! I will try to get some video!!!

A little history...

TuffyBoy was born on April Fool's Day in 2003... He was 3 months old and just 1 1/2 lbs when we brought him home... [Shorter than a Moosehead bottle!!!!]

He isn't fearless like his sister - but you wouldn't know that if you saw the way he barks at men, women, children, dogs, cats, daddy practicing his golf swing, you get the idea...

Lily Luv was born on Christmas Eve in 2006. Her doggie mama, Arwen, and doggie daddy, Sparky, are sweet, and loveable - but NO ONE can compare to Lily's very first mama and daddy, Lynda and Denny [the breeders]! They are the kindest most wonderful people! We brought Lily home in February 2007 when she was about 12 weeks old and only 1 lb 1 oz! Such a peanut!!! Her personality has always been much bigger than the pup - even from day one!!!
