Tallulah-Palooza June: 13

Thursdays in the park with Mae...and Stanley. Every Thursday afternoon for years, we met our friends at the park and walked and talked. Sadly, Stanley left us several years ago.

Tallulah was a bit of a bad influence on him: her full-on hysteria surrounding squirrel sightings was contagious, and the normally very calm and steady Stanley also had a few squirrelio freakouts from time to time.

We miss both of you so very much...

In Memoriam: Stanley (2008-2016)

It is with the very heaviest of hearts and with tears in my eyes that I write this blog post: our beloved friend Stanley has passed away at the too-young age of 8.

He was the most mellow, good-natured boy...he loved bananas and sticks and belly rubs. He didn't care for squirrels or firemen in their running shorts.

He was loving and was so very loved. And he will be so terribly missed by everyone who knew him.

I have so many photos of Stanley...it was so hard to choose these. I am smiling even though I am so sad. We love you, Stanley!

Stan the Man

It's been a while since we've checked in with Stanley...and here he is, in all of his super cuteness. Look at that face!

Tallulah Mae only has one dog friend--Stanley--but what a friend to have. We love you, Stan!

Tallulah-Palooza Friday

What's a girl to do when the wind blows her ears straight out (Flying Nun references abound!)?

{Whoosh...}

{Whooooosh}

Best to just tuck them straight back, out of harm's way.

Stanley thinks that's quite amusing.

Dog 'Tocks

Whose cute little doggy behind is this?

It's Stanley, of course! Kiss kiss on his sweet velvety head!

Bonus: inadvertent self-portrait up there--my hand looks like a giant's hand! Fun with shadows!

Stan, He's the Man

Such a sweet and serious face (and a lovely pink tongue, too!).

I have no idea how to use this new Blogger template, so who knows how this post will turn out!

I Give Thanks for...

Family: those no longer with us physically but always with us nonetheless; those to whom we speak every day; those who might live far away but always make us smile; those to whom we are connected by the blood of our forefathers; those whose faces look back at us from black-and-white photographs from long ago. They all have shaped us and made us who we are.

Friends: old and new; near and far; real and virtual; human and animal. Some have seen us at our worst while others have been with us when we were at our very lowest. Others always make us laugh, while a few have been our friends since we were very young and will always be in our hearts.

B.: my one and only, my friend and my family, every day and in every way.

Sir Stanley

Like many black English labradors, Stanley enjoys a good "knock, knock" joke:

Knock, knock!
Who's there?
Bow.
Bow who?
Not "bow who," "bow wow!"

Good one, McStanlerson!

Bookends of Cuteness

Stanley and Tallulah Mae at the park. Stanley is entranced by the bag o'treats seen in the lower right corner, while Tallulah is on SKWERL!!!!!!!! patrol. {Smooches on both of their little doggy heads!}
