HELLO, FRIENDS

 


Near and Dear Ones,

We think mom already posted this portrait collage but since all she does is sleep all the time now,
we wanted to put it back on our blog so you can see how wonderful we are and, perhaps...
consider adopting a pair of piggies to put under your tree this Christmas?

We wanted you to know that we are herd animals, so if you can adopt a PAIR of us and not separate
us, we would be so much happier; we get lonely for our friends, brothers, and sisters...even though
we will love you with all our hearts...and we will! And every time you pick us up and we are a little
bit tamer, a little bit healthier, a little bit prettier because you brush us, keep our extra-large
cage clean, and let us run about in a safe place on your floor...well, it will be like Christmas
morning every time you look into our eyes and our eyes smile back.

Just try not to be such a crybaby like mom!

WHO LOVES YA, BABY?

SOMEBODY OUT THERE YOU HAVEN'T EVEN MET YET, WHO IS WAITING FOR YOU, HOPING YOU WILL FIND HIM OR HER...

UPWARD FACING PIG POSE: YOGA CLASS WILL NOW COMMENCE

 



Well, Namaste and OM, friends and friendettes,

Yes, now that winter is here and we are eating a little more and running amok a little less it is time for
YogaMasterYumAnanda to teach the herd how to take long, deep breaths, and lean forward from the hips, and
stretch those piggie toes...to get to the wheatgrass mom thinks she has placed just
out of reach! MOM!
Seriously, do you think we can't get this? OMMMMmmmmYuuuuuMMMMMMmmmmm....

WHO LOVES YA, BABY?
PEACE OUT!

Seattle Drivers in Snow: OY!



When you readers from other parts of the country read about our snowstorms described so dramatically, here's a very funny glimpse into WHY! GOT HILLS? GOT SNOW? GOT WHAT
SEATTLE DRIVERS GOT? WE HOPE NOT!

HEE-HEE! This isn't really funny.
Uh, yeah, actually it is.
We can hardly wait for Storm #2!

Love,
Four Foot Drive,
YumYum

MAC-NUT-PIE'S NEW BEST FRIEND

 

Dear Readers,

Mac-Nut-Pie has cutified his way into the heart of mom's bff's husband, David, who now shares cuddles with the
little scamp formerly reserved only for me! To exact revenge, I gave them Sir Eric Blehm's book "The Last Season"
because David is one of the original founders of Marmot Mountain Works and served as a mountain climbing instructor
in Alaska...his wife now reports he has gone missing in the pages of the book...so there! Make friends with the Mac
and I will lose you in a book! No more time for little MacNut now, IS THERE?

Nobody ever said I was a nice pig, just a handsome one.

EVERYBODY'S REAL FAVE,

YUM-YUM!

GOOD BYE, DEAR CHARIOT, YOU SERVED US WELL!

 

 
Posted by Picasa
After years of faithful service, the recent snowstorm and bumpy ice ruts finally rattled every
last remaining screw loose...not unlike some of our brains...and our faithful, hay-carrying
chariot was unexpectedly replaced today by the Pharmacy with a new, shiny black one. This
photo was taken before we knew it was the Chariot's "last hurrah" so we bid you good-bye
and adieu and thank you for carrying things all over the place, including places you were
probably never meant to go: like the trails at Artist's Point on Mt. Baker...shhhh! Tell
no one! It was fun!

The snow has melted, our ice has thawed, and - for the moment - we are enjoying the luxury
of not shivering...

Hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Who loves ya, Baby?

YumYum LOVES YA!

KINDNESS AT THANKSGIVING

 


"Kind hearts are the garden,

Kind thoughts are the roots,

Kind words are the branches,

And kind deeds are the fruits."

~Sant Kirpal Singh Ji Maharaj

This Thanksgiving we give Thanks
to every kind-hearted soul who
compassionately adopts a rescue animal,
offering hope and love
where once there was none.

WHO LOVES YA, BABY?

 


WHEN I WAS STILL A WEE LAD, mom got me this genuine alpaca hat from Peru just for days (or, in our case, weeks..
or possibly months) like these!

HI EVERYONE!
We found a LIVE CAVY CAM broadcasting from Kyoto, Japan on UStream, and invite you MODS
to join us cavies while we watch cavies. Although we don't know why, because we already
have each other to watch. But you humans do it...so we will, too. But we don't know why.

Why not just come to Bellingham and play with us? It's closer than Kyoto...
YOU ARE ALL INVITED! Bring snowshoes...

WHO LOVES YA, BABY?

YumYum loves ya!

Hi Everybody,

Here's a tribute to the ANIMALS! Mom went off across the frozen tundra with the walker
and came home with our Thanksgiving hay, extra bags of food, lots of fresh, organic veggies,
and enough bedding and litter to keep us warm and dry because weThinks it gonna snow
again tomorrow.

We are the lucky ones who still have power, because we sneeze below 68 degrees, so mom
hath decreed that, should we lose power, we will be assigned sleeping bags according to who
gets along with whom and she will probably rue the day...and never be able to use them again,
but not rue the morning when we wake up warm, safe, and ALIVE! So we do have a power
loss emergency plan, and hope never to need it!

Here's to all of our near and dear readers and friends!

We love you all.
