3 Years!!
It seems not long ago we started this blog, and it has already been three years since our first post! For last year’s Blog-iverary, we took you on a horse ride with us but this year, we are simply going to look back on some of our post from the previous year.
So, let’s review the big things that happened last year!
- At the end of January, Mini saw her pups off to their new homes and Barbarella did too.
- On February 4th, Mini and Barbarella went to compete at Petco’s Champion at heart dog show and did great.
- Mini wrote a post on ways to keep your dog’s teeth clean.
- On March 18th, Mini got bitten by a copperhead for the first time. She was a complete cry baby about it, lol!
- In March, Mini and Barbarella also went to Dairy queen and did absolutely perfect and behaved wonderfully!
- On Easter, Mini and Barbarella made a new doggy friend when family came over and Mini was also temporally “adopted” by the little girl who loved her “squishy-ness”.
- On April 21st, we hit 1,000 comments! Thank you all very much again!!
- In the beginning of June, Zachary got his first post published about getting his Adventure Scar and went shopping for a cone to aid in his recovery.
- Zachary also wrote his second post about his Gotcha day in June!
- Mini celebrated her 6th birthday and had a wonderful time!
- In the beginning of July, Mini and Barbarella got their own Instagram account! Man are they spoiled! They now have both a blog and an IG account!
- Mini started on a raw diet back in June and wrote about what she thought about it.
- We won a Petco photo contest and were sent a gift card!
- Barbarella had a fun 5th birthday and shared how it went.
- After hurricane Harvey, Mini wrote about having fun with one of the puddles.
- Barbarella had a litter of puppies in October!
- For Halloween, Mini went to Petco for their annual costume contest and won first place! We all had so much fun!
- In December, The dogs got to experience their first snow!!
- Over the years, Mini and Barbarella have gotten quite good at opening presents and needed little help at Christmas last year.
- And on the last day of 2017, We hit 500 posts!
We had a great year and are glad we have our blog to let you all in on the fun! We didn’t post as often as last year but still totaled 159 post from 1 year ago to today! 
Last year, we totaled 209 posts and the year before that, we totaled 142.
We will be posting Cutie Mondays every week but longer written post, will most likely be less often this year. We post most every day on Instagram so be sure to check us out there while waiting! :D
We hope you guys have enjoyed this past year of posts and our pics on IG and we’ll try to dig up some even better posts for this year!

Congratulations 👏🎉 Three years is a great accomplishment! I’ve enjoyed reading about your adventures, ranch life (would you consider doing more posts about ranch life, the animals, etc), your training and tricks, and I guess your life in general. Congratulations also on your IG page, that’s been a big success also. Yay Mini and Barbarella! 🎈🎉👏

Thank you very much. I have been wanting to do more post about ranch life but it’s just kinda hard to come up with things to write. We have been working on our tricks a lot lately so we might also be doing some posts about them! We are so glad you enjoy everything we write about and hope you don’t find us too boring at times. Maybe once summer comes around we might have some posts about the animals! Thank you for commenting on almost all of our posts throughout the years! We really enjoy getting comments! 🐾🌲🐰🐴🐔🐶

I find you and your lives different and interesting and don’t think you are boring at all. There’s so much about your lives that is interesting (you live in Texas, on a ranch, with animals, fields and woods to roam, etc). Of course I love reading about you, and love seeing how smart and cute you are. And I’ve really enjoyed your posts with pictures of stuff in your everyday: Texas flowers, animals on the ranch (loved reading about birth of Beauty), even the chickens taught me things, ie as ranch dogs you had to learn not to chase them and how Zackary had to learn not to chase them, type of hens you have and different color eggs they lay. I think there’s alot about you that is interesting, even if it seems so “everyday” to you. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.

Well, thanks for letting us know! You are right, when you live something everyday, you might not see it as “special” but someone who doesn’t, might think it’s the greatest thing! Every once in a while, you just have to stop and see it from a stranger’s view and you can see how different and beautiful it is.
