You might be thinking, I could have found a better steps photo than this to finsh on, well this is where it all started back on 15th May 2010 on these very steps.

Here I am as a pup of just over 5 months,

Since then there has been 84 Saturday Steps.

So close to Frankie's magic number that I'm going to show you some that didn't make it to a blog post

Saturday Steps, One Very Wet Day!!

Consall Hall Landscape Gardens

Me, Mom and Dad really enjoyed our walk around this place, even though it rained,  I gave it the 4 Paws award and emailed it off to them not thinking we would hear back, but the next day I had a lovely email from the manager thanking me for the award, and that he liked my blog post, so much that it is now on their main web page with a link to my blog and post. 

Thank You Consall Hall

We will be back to show Tess around later this year

Saturday Steps The Spooky One.

We have become good friends over the last year with Boomer and his Folks, and without him this post would not exist, it was also around this time I realized just what its like having a sister!! 

*************

We could go on as we have so many favorites.

I have put together a smile box with all 84 in the right date order that they appeared on the blog, so if you feel you can sit through 84 steps take a look, perhaps you have a favorite.

This slideshow customized with Smilebox

New Year Resolutions!!!!

We're Back, no silly head gear, just us in the furs.

We have alot to get though in this post, so lets get started

Snap Shot of Our Christmas

Christmas Eve we went for a walk with our friends

The pups, Ben on the Left and Jenny on the right

Tuffy, George's long time girlfriend that goes in the pub

(Stanzie its not real love she just a friend)

Me

George who didn't look to happy, mom made us all the same bandanny's to wear.

But he soon had a smile on his face when the walk ended at the pub

But it didn't go down well when he found out there was just water in the dog bowl and not beer, he said when its just him and dad at the pub, he gets beer in the dog bowl!

A good end to Christmas Eve

********

Christmas Day

 We went to Granny and Granpops, and took a walk to the Stiperstones

Its was very very windy. Mom couldn't hold the camera still

Coming back down, thats baby peeps Simon

he didn't want to come but said when we got back he enjoyed it.

We were all ready for Christmas dinner when we got back.

Mom put the camera away so there are no photos, I think she'd had to much sherry to take any good photos :)

Its at this point we would both like to say a big Thank You to all the friends that sent us Christmas cards, ecards and pressies. It was a surprize how many we got, no need to, but we loved recieving them, we are just pleased you are our friends. 

Christmas didn't end there

I did alot of this

While George did some of this!!



Dad made up this game based on "BuckaRoo"

The idea was to see how many toys

 he could put on me before I got up! thats my tail sticking up at the back, I just fell asleep for a while.

One present I will show you remember George and Dad going in that shop at Trentham and coming out with a pink bag, this was in it

A bling bling collar from George, thanks George he did say it was a good job I have a short name cus he was running out of his dog biscult allowance money!

What do you think? as I don't class myself as a bling bling girl.

New Years Resolution!!

We are not happy, I had a lovely first Christmas, then I find out about this thing that folks do

 New Years Resolutions.

Bocci my blogging friend has just put up a great post on resolutions that folks make for there pets.

Go check it out its a good list of things to do this year.

Pet Parents And Their New Year's Resolutions

Well Mom came up with one.

You won't belive this,
 To give up blogging!!!
 yes give it up.

 We had to fight our corner

We had to make a stand, time for the negotiaton table

"George don't sit down there like a wimp"

"Look Tess if she has made her mind up then that's it"  

"Don't be silly George we can pull her around that's why its called negotiation, some give and take, OK" 

"Look mom its like this, I've not been blogging that long, heck all of 3 months George as had a good run of it, we can't let our followers and readers down, we've been on a blogging break long enough"

"Please Mom don't do this, we need you to help us blog!!"

  "George help she won't listen to me!"

"Mom, I know it takes a long time to do the blog posts and we have been blogging a long time every Saturday with Saturday Steps, then Tess comes along with The Tess, but we can't stop all together, we have put a lot into this blog, plus all the friends we have made, lets just cut blogging down and see how it goes"   

Seems George's approach worked,

"Thanks George, that was close"

George has negotiated the following

The Tuesday Tess will now be The Monthy Tess

Oh well better than not at all

This weeks Saturday Steps will be the last one, but the good news is George will still be putting up posts as and when we get to go somewhere intresting.

 UK is holding the olympic games this year and we live just a short drive away from where it all started, so I can see some blog posts coming up about that.

Don't give up on us friends we have been told we can keep up with what you are doing and join in with things going on in blogland.

 She is letting us on the laptop some of the time to go visiting which we are pleased about.

So for now

Happy New Year

Hope you can join us on Saturday for a Special look back at

Saturday Steps.

Love and hugs George and Tess xxxx
