Happy Veterans Day Holiday

Yesterday was Veterans Day, and today is the federal Veterans Day holiday.  In honor of the occasion, I am wearing my patriotic skirt.  Why aren't I wearing a top? I do not know.

Anyway, today I want to share something special with you. The man in this picture is my great-great-great-great... grandpa. I call him that because he was really great! He went to the Rainbow Bridge for people a long time ago, but I wanted to share this article about him.

See, for a while in Casper, he was the last surviving veteran of the Spanish-American war! If you read the article, you can see he was a real character.  He attributed his longevity to smoking cigars! My Mommeh says she can still remember him a little bit. I sure wish I could have met him.

Happy Veterans Day holiday everybuddy, and a big Thank You to all of our veterans! 

ps: Today on the PetMeds Pet Talk blog, you can read a Veterans Day poem I wrote!

My 4th of July Suit

Since next week is Independence Day, I thought I would show you my special 4th of July suit! It has stars and stripes and sequins. The sequins are CLEAR.  I do not know why.

This suit is very comfy too, so I think it will be a great outfit to wear to watch fireworks.

And I am already looking forward to grilling some hamburgers! I am drooling in anticipation!

What are you going to wear for the holiday?

Happy Memorial Day

I hope everybuddy has a happy Memorial Day! And also, take a moment to remember the meaning behind this day, which is a day of remembrance of the men and women who died in the service of our country.

We who are left how shall we look again
Happily on the sun or feel the rain
Without remembering how they who went
Ungrudgingly and spent
Their lives for us loved, too, the sun and rain?
