Wildlife

So, I was in the back yard with Leo (the bad dog), in pajamas and no bra (give me a break, it was 8:45 pm on a weekday!). We've been taking chances with some 'off leash' bathroom breaks outside before our Invisible Fence is up and running, and this happened to be one of those days. Usually when we have 1 - 1 time outside, they go potty and its right back inside. On this occasion however, I was waiting for Leo to do his 'business' when a giant (according to me) coyote ran into the neighbor's yard. It took less than 3 seconds for Leo to bee line for Mr. Coyote - cue Krystle's heart attack. Luckily, coyotes are scared of people and this one ran away....right back to the elementary school playground that it came from. I didn't get to my camera on time, but this photo is a pretty solid depiction of what I saw.....

I'm ready for my close up.....

Some of you may not know that Rudy and Leo's cousin, Olive, is a famous TV star. Here she is in just one of many Subaru commercials. Olive has black fur with a pink collar.

Well, we're giving Olive a run for her money because Rudy and Leo have been featured in a Select Comfort print ad! With any luck this will show up in the fall catalogue. Look out world!

Chris took them to their photo shoot (it was all he could do to keep them from the Kraft Services table....kidding but I've always wanted to say that). Rudy was the star because he's our good dog that does what he's told. Hence Leo only appears in one cameo shot.

Rudy and Leo are not doing appearances yet, but if you send a request by mail you they will send a limited number of "paw-tographs" to some lucky fans.

Ciao!

Spring Has Sprung!

My tulips are blooming! Luckily I grabbed my camera in time to get a picture in between thunderstorms (what else is new). Finally a sign that winter is over!

Someone ate the Easter Bunny

We had a great Easter hosting the family at our house for some brunch. It was a low-key day and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Some of us sported our Twins gear especially for Grandma (her favorite team - even though we're not doing so great!).

Here we are with our bunny costumes from Grandma Gretchen. They are a little too big so we have to pose really nice for the picture.

Someone ate the Easter Bunny!

After such a long day we were tired so we took long naps!
