Masked Intruders



I love kids. I really do. I let them pick me, carry me around like a stuffed animal and pull my tail. For some reason kids on Halloween make me really upset. I did not trust the little monsters with masks, ringing my doorbell at my Grandma's house and taking my food (well technically not my food because no would let me have any, but it was still my property). Lincoln, the usual "hot mess" was all sweet and docile, wearing his bee costume, never once barking. He even went to the door calmly every time, helping hand out candy.

How was no one else creeped out by all the little masked intruders running up and down the street?!

I have earned the nickname "Scrappy Doo," for my "lemme at them" attitude on Halloween. Mommy is still threatening those obedience classes.

However, the real drama over the weekend was not caused by yours truly but Lincoln. Saturday night, Lincoln's nose got warm and he got sick. After a couple of hours he acted fine so everyone assumed he had just worked himself into a tizzy. At 4 a.m. Lincoln got up to pace around the bed and Mommy reached out to comfort him and...Lincoln puked all over the bed and Mommy. Hehe. So Lincoln, Mommy and I got to sleep all curled up on the couch together. It was like camping. Kind of.

Safe to say, we had a very exhausting weekend. Time for a nap.

  1. Oh NO....poor Lincoln!!! We hope it was just a temporary "tizzy flu" and nothing serious!

    Minnie...I go totally ape$#it when the doorbell rings too. Mom and dad hung out in the driveway and handed out candy before all those little turdlets could get to the doorbell and hype me up!

    I hope you and Lincoln got a LOT of treats and had fun "sort of" camping!!! Give your brother some extra kisses from us, ok? Puking is NO fun!

    Love,
    S-Dog

  7. Minnie I'm with you. My Mom's secret reason for not getting me a Halloween costume or handing out candy last night was that I am a terror when it comes to someone coming to the door. I freak out. Not only that but I'm what my Mom calls "A Runner." I'm convinced life would be better on the outside and that I could survive without my Mom. I don't know why she is laughing right now.

    I hope Lincoln is feeling better! But camping sounds like fun too.

    Later!

  10. I'm with you, I love kids when they are "normal", well as normal as kids can be. Last night they invaded my home, dressed all funny and took something from my mom and dad. I think next year I'm going to hire a guard dog to prevent the home invasions.
