Bye Pippi, Wine & Pizza, and Tasha

We went down this weekend to Trina’s for a wine & pizza party. You can check out more pics at Nerice’s blog and Trina’s blog when she updates. We went down with 7 dogs in the car. Five greys in the back, Parker in Kris’ lap, and Murphy in mine. The greys looked like a jigsaw puzzle, Parker slept the entire time, and Murphy squealed and squirmed the entire way.
We came back with one less dog. We dropped off Pippi with Mitch and Michelle. After having her for so long, it was really hard to give her up. I try not to get too attached to the fosters. Just easier that way. But some just manage to worm their way in. I had one last snuggle session with her before she left. Stanley said he’ll miss her too. Stella is ignoring that the fact that daddy is snuggling with another girl.Dave from Bella Vino explained all the wines we were drinking.Our extra grey in the car was Sunny. Just watching her for the weekend. Here she is taking a break from socializing at the party.While Jason and Dabney made Irish Car Bombs, Kris decided she would stick with the wine.A gratuitous cutie shot of Diego.Nerice made cookies in honor of the Super Bowl on Sunday.Kris and Trina rockin’ it out while Iva sings.Stella and Stanley assisting in their own way.The pizza dough must have been talking smack.Stanley will stand as long as it takes to get a space on the couch.Kris and Trina: BFF with wine.Kris and Trina: BFF with more wine.Stanley’s wait pays off and he finally gets a spot.Diego: Why do people always pick me up and want to kiss me? Am I really that frakkin’ adorable?We came home Pippi-less, but we were not without a foster for long. Tasha joined us a couple hours after we got back home. She was a bit anxious the first night, but she seems to have settled down today. Here she is with Jaime in my office. She’s a big ol’ girl. We seem to get lots of black or brindle fosters.

  6. Ok, those cookies are WAY impressive. Who would dare eat them?

    And why didn't anyone take a pic of you driving up with 7 hounds in your car? That is totally blog-worthy.

  7. i don't think the pizza dough was talking smack. i think someone else was and was about to be smacked with pizza dough.

    i love how unimpressed or fussed the dogs are while you're playing geeter hero.

  8. I love that first picture of all of you snuggling on the couch. That's exactly why I'm afraid to foster...I don't think I would be able to give them up!

    I'm glad Stanley's patience and perseverance paid off on his quest for the couch :)
