Paw It Forward

Hey everyblogger! We have been super behind on our blogging, but we think we are finally caught up. We haven't had much to post about, but this past weekend we got a package in the mail. We were super excited when mom came home from checking her Peeee O Box and said there was something addressed to us!
We saw the return address was from Sequoia and Tuni and we knew it was our Paw It Forward package. Mom put it down so we could get a good sniff.

Hmmmm what's inside? A card with two cute pug puppies that said "Friendship is the frosting on the cupcake of life"... isn't that pawesome?!?


Yay I got an envelope, yummm this thing is delicious, thanks Tuni and Sequoia.

Oh dear, Oakley, we got much more than an envelope, look at all this great stuff treats, and stockings with our pictures on them. Super cool! Mini tennis balls and yummy bones!

(note from mom: it was so hard to get them to sit still for the pictures and to get pictures of all the stuff together. They were having such a fun time with their new goodies)

Mom I'm sitting here for the damn...errr dang picture but I can't keep my eyes off the stuff. Hurry and get the picture before my brother takes something that I want first.

Yes a ball, I love to play with tennis balls. Thank you soooo sooo much Tuni and Sequoia for all the great stuff.

Bones our favorite!

So now it is our turn to Paw It Forward. You can leave us a comment telling us you want to play and we will take the first three who do. You can then email your address to us at Oakleyandswisher@gmail.com. We can't wait to go shopping with mom for some cool stuff.

Thanks again to Tuni and Sequoia and their mom of course for the presents.

We were given a few awards during our lack of bloggin but we will save those for another post as this one is already pretty long. We hope everyone is having a great week, getting ready for the big turkey day!

Sheer Determination


Hi everydog, (and human). It's Oakley here, the other night I found my toy monkey. He was already missing his leg and tail from other adventures and I thought it would be cool if he had no legs at all.

So I yanked.
And I pulled. (Note: If a human holds one end while you pull it's a little easier)

I took him up to the bed and chewed a bit, your slobber is essential in wearing stuffies down.

I kept at it for what seemed like hours.

Almost there I can hear it tearing.

Finally! I got the darn thing off.

Yummmm tastes like chicken. BOL.

Sweet sweet victory.

Hope everyone is having a great week.

The Only Bright Side-


The Yankees won the World Series, any other season my mom would be pretty bitter about this but this season she says there's a bright side. This guy....

he is Nick Swisher and he plays right field for the Yankees. He is the person mom named me after.

He started his career with my favorite team the Oakland A's, then was traded to the Chicago White Sox and then to NY. It was a sad day in my house when that happened. No matter our feelings against the Yankees we think Swisher is a great guy and a good ballplayer so the only bright side in the Yankee victory for us is that Nick is a champion.



This is a picture with me and moms Swisher shirts. She doesn't own his Yankee one though she thinks it would make her skin melt off. (She's a bit dramatic) bol. Until next season baseball fans!
