Space Center Houston is Out of This World

    One of the cool things about moving to a new city is that we’ve never been to most of the major tourist attractions. When you are talking about Houston, Texas, there are a LOT of things to see and explore. We have shared some of the fun places that we’ve visited before like our trip to the Houston Zoo, the theater district, and the Renaissance Festival. It’s an exciting place to live and I look forward to showing the city as we bark about the Bayou City.

   We recently went to Space Center Houston and it was incredible. As a child in the 60’s, I was fascinated at the thought of going into space. A lot of it probably had to do with watching the Jetson’s cartoon. Like most everyone in the world with a television, my family watched in awe on July 20, 1969, when Neil Armstrong took the first steps on the moon. Our incredible city was front and center when he reported from the moon’s surface on that fateful day, “Houston, the Eagle has landed.”

What's Happening on the Bayou?

Bentley Basset: “We thought today would be a good time to catch up on the things happening around the bayou this month. There were some fireworks on New Year’s Eve but, I had my *Treatibles and settled in for a nice snooze.”

We're Left Kong-fused

Bentley Basset: “Hello! It’s our first post since the howlidays and we hope that 2020 has been awesome for y’all so far. We thought we’d share our Christmas with an update on our toys that have left us very Kong-fused.”

Happy 2020 Y'all

   We want to wish everyone a very happy 2020. Our New Year’s Eve was spent together at home with the boys. Although there were some fireworks in the area, Bentley had some *Treatibles and went to sleep early. I turned smooth jazz on *Amazon Music for him in the bedroom tv to drown out any booms. Pierre barked at the first few but then realized that we weren’t under attack and curled up in his bed in the living room.

Happy Howlidays 2019

wishes you a very merry Christmas!

A Letter To Santa

Dear Santa, 
   We thought it would be a great idea if we wrote our Christmas letter and got it in the mail before your busiest night. How are the reindeer doing? Hopefully, they are ready to make the big trip to deliver all of the presents to the good children, dogs, and cats in the world. We will leave some extra carrots for them along with your cookies and milk.

All I Want for Christmas...2019 Gift Guide

Mom: “This is the time of year when I again give up on my annual idea of shopping for all of the Christmas presents that go under the tree or need to be mailed. I’m sure it is because Christmas comes earlier and earlier each year.”

Bentley Basset: “Nope, Christmas is on December 25 every year. It’s true there was one less week between Thanksgiving and Christmas, but you know it is possible to shop early. Just sayin’.”

Happy 12th Birthday, Bentley!

Bentley: “Hey Pierre! Instead of the news, we get to tell everyone about my furbulous twelfth birthday. That’s right, I celebrated turning the BIG 1-2 yesterday so I thought you would like to see how we paw-tied on the Bayou.”

   I was so excited to get a brand-new *Lambchop. Pierre is a known serial Lambchop killer so I’m going to try to keep this baby away from him. You can see that he is already eyeing it!
