The Growing Tails of Ernie McDoodle: An ICE Day for a Walk

Today we woke up to an icy winter wonderland, and one of Ernie McDoodle's favorite things in the whole wide world is ice! He looked at me and said, "Hey Mom, isn't today an ICE day for a walk?"
Look at all this ice!!
It is an interesting day when the trees are ice but the pond is not!
This is quite the puzzle! I must figure what else is ice! 
Come on Maverick!
Look Ernie! The field and the woods are all ice too!
Mmm crunchy frozen sticks and leaves!
Ernie isn't it beautiful?!
It sure is!! Ohhh did you see this sparkly shrub?
Oh that is a good one Ernie!!
Come on! Let's see what else we can find that is covered in ice!
Oh Ernie! You make every day a good day!


You were right my silly doodle! It was a very ICE day for a walk!

Always,

Amelia

The Eagle has....not landed

There we were outside, working away when......WOOSH!  A Bald Eagle flew right by us! We immediately threw off our gloves in an attempt to retrieve our phone to take a picture and ran after the eagle.
It seems Eagles are WAY faster than humans running up a hill
But right there in the sky.....way way way in the distance - is a Bald Eagle
The Eagle has.......NOT landed
But it was here!
We saw it!
Now that's a big bird!!!
We are so excited that Yesteryear Acres has its own Bald Eagle Doodle!!
We hope you come back soon! Who knows?  Maybe next time we can say, "The Eagle has Landed!!!"

Always,

Amelia

Back to the Rain

Well the sun was sure nice while it lasted!  Guess we better get used to living in a rain forest.  This has to be the wettest, dreariest, rainiest, winter ever!  Our doodle doggies go out nice and white (or cream or apricot) but they all come back in as chocolate doodles!!!! At least we don't have the freezing rain - so that is a plus!  The doggies are still ever so glad to go outside walking with us even in the rain.  Dogs make the very best walking companions ever!  No matter what the weather, ever day is a great day to go walking!
After all.......
"The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain"
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The Doodle Schedule

It is hard to describe all the work here that we do at Yesteryear Acres. It takes all hours of the day and night to keep all our Doodle doggies and puppies happy, healthy, and very well loved. My sister wrote something on our To-Do list chalk board that made me smile so much! Now this is the best way I could ever describe the Yesteryear Acres work schedule...
How PAWsitively perfect is that!?
This Doodle Schedule has been Doodle Approved!

Always,

Amelia

A Sleepy Kind of Day

Some days I just really want to be my Doodle dogs. They get the best care and attention and best of all they get to NAP. 
I MEAN LOOK AT THIS FACE!
I want to have a sleepy kind of day like our snuggly Doodle doggies!
I wonder if I curled up on a dog bed if anyone would notice?

Here's to trying!!

Always,

Amelia
