We had another busy weekend last weekend. Daddy wanted to try a race on snowshoes...no one complained because we all like the snow. So, Mommy and Daddy woke me up early (oh, did I say no one complained? My mistake.) and put me in the car and we drove out to Mt Hood. There were a lot of dogs there so that was good. I think my favorites were the team of sled dogs. They were so cool that I can now say "Husky". Mommy and Scout and I walked part of the race course - it was really pretty. Scout was really sad that Dad ran by without him but he survived okay.

Even though we were really tired, we went home and celebrated the Super Bowl with buffalo wings and BBQ ribs and some other stuff. I really liked the wings best - Mommy says "It figures."

Yesterday, I went with Mommy and Miss Connie to Crystal Springs Duck Garden. I couldn't believe how many ducks were there! They just walked right up to me looking for food. I didn't feed them but some other kids did. We also went for treats at the bakery and checked out a cool toy store that I've never been to.

You'd think that would be enough but I decided it was time that I start walking around the neighborhood. I used to ride in the stroller or Mommy would carry me but now I will just take her hand and walk. I walked a block or so to Petey's house (Maggie and Rick live with Petey) and then blocks and blocks to the school. After walking another block, I decided I should run home. So...I did! It was great. I did it again today! I think I will do that every day.

Well, it's bedtime here so I better go.
