All About Aussie

My photo
I am the Australian born puppy of Matt and Nina. Matt named me Aussie, but my birth certificate name is Wildenfox Earl Jackaroo. Wildenfox Earl is for my parents and Matt gave me Jackaroo, which is the Australian equivalent of cowboy. I am an AKC certified Jack Russell Terrier. I can sit, stay, give manners, give high and low five. I only speak on command and when MamaMuffin yelps "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie"! I recently learned how to roll over, that was fun. Nina taught me how to fetch, which took quite a while, but I eventually got it. My favorite toy is my green ball that Matt and Nina put hot dogs in and I throw the ball to release the hot dogs. It keeps me entertained for at least an hour. I also enjoying finding MamaMuffin and Master. I stay in the kitchen, they hide and then bark, indicating it's time for me to "seek" them out: Hide and Seek! We have a lake in the backyard and I love wading in it, but I'm not confident enough to go swimming. My master bought me a life jacket to help me swim or float along easier. Enjoy the pictures my MamaMuffin posts. She can get annoying with the camera...everyday she takes a picture, or so it seems.

and my brother Dillon Murphy

My brother came to us through Dennis's wonderful mom. He is also a Jack Russell Terrier and the vet gave him a birthday of May 1st. He's so much fun to play with and I'm able to teach him tricks, along with my MamaMuffin. MamaMuffin and I will write for him because too young to blog, but we'll convey his thoughts as best we can.

Christmas time...

Well, I'm so excited for Matt to get back that I actually put the tree up a couple of days before Thanksgiving...(I'm thankful that he has been safe and is coming home soon). I'm a fan of silver and blue, so we've purchased things in that color scheme...I'm sure it'll change one year!


Aussie boy, my golden child, sat patiently for me while I took the picture. His brother nugget, on the otherhand, has no patience and only sat for a second. I think I need to work on that skill!

Here are the table top decorations...simple and not too fussy!


The dining table...oops, forgot those pictures...but the dining table and the front door table have all of the candles on them. I got those bobble santa, reindeer and snowman this year- fun fun!

Well, I found a great use of that cubby space in the wall! It makes a great landscape for a reindeer moutaintop. And there are our stockings...Matt's is filled already! We got one for Dennis also. The boys don't have stockings yet, maybe not this year??? I don't have a Baby Jesus manger scene yet, I'm going to wait for Matt to get back before I make that purchase.
