There will be another empty seat at our table this Thanksgiving. Our Great Uncle has gone on to be with Grandpa and Great Grammy. We are trying to take comfort that after years of being apart from his dear mother, our Great Uncle will be with her in time for Thanksgiving. After all, Thanksgiving was […]
Is our Christmas tree up? Yes. Yes, it is. Was it decorated on Veterans Day? Yes. Yes, it was. Did we break our own rule of no Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving? Yes. Yes, we did! But we can explain! It has been an uncertain year for us, to say the least. If my family […]
It has been brought to my attention that some of our friends would like to know the story behind our names. Lemmy, Asa and I are named after Mom’s ancestors who lived in the 1800s at the Isles of Shoals, off the coast of New Hampshire and Maine. Consisting of 9 islands, our focus today […]
From the dogs who eulogized Mom’s dearly departed DVR, you can’t possibly think we’d let Dad’s beloved car go without one final fond farewell. Tomorrow we’ll share the exciting news about our new car. But today we look back at 19 years with Dad’s Subaru Outback. It all began back in 2004 when Dad bought […]
Still looking for a New Year’s Resolution that’s fun, yet challenging? Already gave up on the resolution you did choose? We double dog dare you to take our photography challenge!

Sssshh! Can you keep a secret? Last week Dad was away for a few days, so we’ve been playing by Mom’s rules. They are kind of like Dad’s rules, but a lot better. Here are a few highlights, but remember just like the motto “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas,” let’s just keep this […]
Asa and I noticed that Mom and Dad’s batteries aren’t at 100% lately. Therefore we’ve decided that for the next 2 weeks we are going to unplug and help them recharge. Well that and apparently according to our Human Resources department, we owe them a vacation. They surprisingly put in a lot of work helping […]
How do you say goodbye to someone who lived a relatively quiet life away from the spotlight, yet was known by friends around the world? Such is the case for our dear friend and lawyer, Pye, the Guinea Pig, Esq., who crossed Rainbow Bridge on Friday. Council to dogs everywhere, Pye’s quiet and reassuring presence […]
Yesterday while searching our archives for a Throwback Thursday photo to share, I came upon this troubling picture from 2016. At first glance it appears to be Asa and I running on the beach. But take a closer look, and you’ll see we are running away from the ball! Why would we abandon a ball […]
