Bubsy: Welcome to our monster mash! This is the theme mom wanted for her birthday party. When she didn’t end up having a party with the monster mash theme, this theme got pushed to our Halloween. So here we are four eyed little monsters. Truth be told we are just like little monsters. Especially one of us! 😆😉 Hey, at least we are cute and cuddly monsters….or at least one of us is cuddly! 😉 Wishing you all a fun and candy filled Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻

Smart Cookie
Bubsy: Well hello to Sunday! Sissy, we made it to Sunday, where are you at?
Sissy: Probably not in Texas. Probably got blown upward to Oklahoma during the three days of awful weather we’ve suffered through. ⛈️
Bubsy: Don’t worry sissy, I’m 100% sure you are right here next to me and still in Texas.
Sissy: Are you sure? How can you see me? The fog was so thick this morning I couldn’t even see my own precious feet. 🐾
Bubsy: The fog was thick but sissy exaggerates.
Sissy: I was not a happy walker this morning.
Bubsy: Sissy, the entire neighborhood knows you weren’t happy. She walked like a mad wet hen, grumbling like a gremlin the entire way.
Sissy: And that cackling witch on our morning route scared me again. If mom hadn’t had a good grip on my leash I would have turned around and ran home at the sound of the first witch cackling at me.
Bubsy: It’s feeling like Halloween around here, complete with the damp foggy weather we are having. Cackling witches in front of people’s houses, pumpkins galore, and bats hanging in people’s trees are becoming all familiar sights for us.
Sissy: Don’t forget the creepy skeletons sitting on people’s porches. Halloween is a creepy time of year.
Bubsy: You know your personality kind of matches with Halloween. 👻 You can be rather spooky! Moving on, so as we know…Halloween is right around the corner. Mom spent this past week decorating her class pumpkin for a contest at her school. 🎃 We shall see how her pumpkin does in the voting, which starts tomorrow.
Sissy: She won’t win.
Bubsy: Well geez, can you be anymore negative. It’s not about winning for mom. She just wants to have a finished product she is proud of.
Sissy: You know, mom just keeps getting more and more artsy. She made a sheep yesterday out of cotton balls and paper plates.
Bubsy: Ah yes, mom’s favorite craft supply might be cotton balls. She can tell you which store brand has the best cotton balls. She’s checked out so many brands. 🤣
Sissy: She’s crazy.
Bubsy: Later today mom’s church-school has their fall festival. I hope mom brings us home a treat. I could go for a corn dog or better yet a candy apple.🍎
Sissy: Mom’s running the candy apple booth. So I’m willing to bet, she’ll come home with an apple or two. But they probably won’t be candied. I would be more intrigued if she was running the pie eating contest. And brought home extra pie.🥧😋 That would be better.
Bubsy: Have you ever had pie, sissy? How do you know it’s better than an apple?
Sissy: This is how I know…mom eats plain apples daily. But a few weeks ago for her birthday treat she requested pie! So pie has to be better than just a plain non candied apple. 🍎😉
Bubsy: That’s some great reasoning sissy. I’m impressed with your reasoning skills.
Sissy: What can I say…I’m one smart cookie! 🍪
Bubsy: It’s about time for us to put a wrap on this post….a candy wrap on this post since Halloween is nearly here.🍫 If you are accepting trick-o-treaters please get them the good stuff. Don’t try to make Sweet Tarts and Nerds seem like a good treat. 😉 Below you will find our Halloween inspired pic of the week. Drop back by our blog on Friday for our actual oHalloween pic. 🎃 Enjoy your eek…I mean week! 🤣😉👻💀

The Confusion
Bubsy: Welcome to our Sunday afternoon. Where we are waiting for the Cowboys to start. Big game today….rivalry game. Hey, where you at sissy?
Sissy: Probably in Texas laying on the couch ready to watch the game with my earmuffs. Mom nearly blew my ear drums out yesterday watching her precious Sun Devils take down a Texas team. How dare them! 😠
Bubsy: It was quite the game. And what a weird few hours it was for us in our house.
Sissy: It all caused me to be dazed and confused. 😵💫 Mom was cheering for her team. Dad was cheering for the Texas team. The noise level was ridiculous. Mom was even pacing the floor at times.
Bubsy: Mom kept pulling me to her side. I was easy to convince. I’m a big time momma’s boy. 😊
Sissy: I tried to stay neutral. Because overall I really didn’t care. I cared more about when it was going to stop raining and who had the cozier blanket near them.
Bubsy: You weren’t too good at staying neutral, sissy. You were on mom’s side for almost the whole game.
Sissy: Well what can I say…she gets my support when she has a cozy blanket.😉
Bubsy: Lucky for us, no confusion today. Cowboys are playing their rivals today. This is an all Cowboys household. 🤠
Sissy: I want to be a cowboy, baby! 🤠
Bubsy: Do you really?
Sissy: No, not really. Just singing the song we always hear around here.
Bubsy: Oh yeah, it’s a popular tune played at all commercial breaks of Cowboys games. 🎶 So what else is going on in our world?
Sissy: Pumpkins! 🎃
Bubsy: Yep, it’s pumpkin season and mom is obsessed with pumpkins…as decor, that is. Mom and dad went out to pick pumpkins. But before they went out looking for pumpkins to decorate with, mom came home with a big pumpkin from work on Friday. She has to decorate it for the fall festival at her school.
Sissy: Last year’s fall festival pumpkin was kind of a disaster she did.
Bubsy: Well let’s hope mom learned from that experience.🤣😉
Sissy: Doubtful. Mom is a slow learner.
Bubsy: I think mom has done the necessary research on paints and other things this time around. Plus she even went to the hardware store to find stuff for this year’s pumpkin contest. So it’ll be better this year. 🎃 I believe in mom!
Sissy: I don’t!
Bubsy: Sissy! Stop it! What if mom reads this? You might not get dinner tonight. 😳
Sissy: I’m not worried!
Bubsy: I think it’s time for us to wrap this up and get back to our Sunday afternoon. The Cowboys are coming on soon.
Sissy: We have just enough time to get in a quick nap and for me to get my earmuffs on. I have
Bubsy: As you can see in our pic below…pumpkins are ruling the weekend. Hope you all have a fun week. 🎃

The Beep
Bubsy: Welcome to our Sunday. Welcome to our never ending party blog. Sissy, where are you at?
Sissy: I’m still partying at the Cotton Bowl after that big win yesterday. 🏈
Bubsy: The Red River belongs to us this year.
So another celebration happened in our house besides the big game…the cat turned a dozen! And she celebrated with a tuna cake.
Sissy: Yuck! Sounds gross to me. But she ate it all.
Bubsy: So sissy, how did you sleep last night?
Sissy: Oh my, it was awful. I was trapped in an annoying situation. Beep! Doze off…then BEEEEP again. The beeping was followed by an irritating voice.
Bubsy: Mom along with the two of us were awakened by the annoying beep of the smoke detector that was trying to tell our parents to change the battery.
Sissy: I’m not sure which is worse, the irritating beep or the voice that comes after the beep telling the humans to change the battery.
Bubsy: It’s a toss up. The beep and the talking voice are both creepy to me.
Sissy: Dad was still awake when it started happening but he didn’t feel like changing the battery. He told mom he’d change it in the morning.
Bubsy: Mom was not exactly satisfied with dad’s choice to not change the battery until morning. However, she tried to go back to bed and sleep thru it. But next thing I knew, mom was bouncing up out of bed and flying down the hallway. Then the next thing I saw was mom dragging the step ladder into the bedroom. Of course, next thing that happened….the beeping stopped! Peace reigned in our household again. And I could get my handsome sleep! 😴
Sissy: I’m just happy mom took care of it because having to listen to that beep and the voice all night long may have pushed me over the edge.
Bubsy: Last thing we need is to have you going over the edge. The world doesn’t need your kind of crazy occurring. As it is you walk on the edge daily. 🤪
Sissy: Don’t I know it!
Bubsy: Time to wrap this up and get back to occupying momma’s lap. It’s Sunday which means I’m a lazy lap dog today. Plus all other days when a lap is available. 😉😆 Big week for our mom, it’s parent-teacher conference week and they are drastically short of teachers. So she needs to rest up today and I am the perfect snuggle partner. Have a great week everyone!

Let’s Party!
Bubsy: Well hello there! Welcome to the party! We’ve had a couple celebrations this week. First up, my gotcha day then Mom’s bday. Yesterday was mom’s birthday party. Which was lots of fun! At least for me! 😉 How about for you, sissy?
Sissy: Grandma tried to pick me up and I went running to mom. I’m too precious for grandma to pick up. 😠
Bubsy: So instead grandma came over and stole me away from my auntie’s arms. 😆 Don’t worry ladies, there’s enough of this little loverboy to go around. 😉 In other news, I think mom was pretty happy with at least one of her gifts. She squealed with extreme excitement when she opened a t-shirt box containing a Cardinals shirt.
Sissy: That squeal was completely unnecessary. And it was while I was occupying her lap. Never heard her squeal like that over a Cowboys shirt. 🙄 Mom better realize where she lives. Texas!
Bubsy: Cowboys shirts are a dime a dozen here. But finding a Cardinals shirt is like looking for a needle in a haystack. So mom’s excitement is understandable.😊
Sissy: Well at least all this partying is done. Because listening to your gotcha day song followed by the Happy Birthday song was almost too much for me to bear. 🙄
Bubsy: For those that aren’t aware….sissy has an additional nickname…”the fun police”. She’s the po-po! 👮Nobody has fun without sissy objecting to it.
Sissy: How is it fun to listen to mom sing to you?🎤 🎶 I barely like her singing when it’s my bday or gotcha day. So I definitely don’t enjoy her off key singing when it’s for you. Plus it has only one line. It’s questionable if it’s even a song?
Bubsy: Well look at you sissy…portraying yourself as a music expert.😆 And on that note…pun intended.🎵😆…it’s time for us to wrap this up and get back to our relaxing Sunday. Actually much to sissy’s dismay, mom has a few more gifts to open tonight. So here’s to hoping sissy can keep herself calm thru a little more celebrating for mom.🥳 Hope you all have a good week!
