Merry Christmas 2011

Mocha wanted to send a Merry Christmas message out to everyone . . .

(And PS…those antlers are not “photoshopped” into the image. I actually bought a headband with the antlers & Santa hat on them. After a lot of assistance from my sister, we got Mocha to wear them. It was extremely CRAZY trying to get one good photo because he was growling most of the time and jumping off the rock into the water. However, it was worth it to get this photo for our 2011 Christmas cards.)

Happy #7 Birthday Mocha!

Happy Birthday to Mocha. He is 6 years old today. For 6 years he has blessed my life with love, joy, laughter & entertainment. He makes every day a HAPPY one. It amazes me still how one little puppy can make your heart melt just by his personality.

Here Mocha is in stealth mode to stalk a squirrel, he was not interested in getting his birthday photo taken today.

I’ve been so busy this week that I forgot to get Mocha a bag of toys for his birthday. My sister reminded me that he has ENOUGH TOYS. (see photo below that I snapped earlier this year with my point & shoot camera) I will still probably secretly buy him a small something.

I picked him up on Oct 22, 2006….exactly 8 weeks old to the day, because that’s the earliest Jamie & Kim will let me take him away from his birth mommie. We marked him with a special little colored yarn collar that said I had picked him and NO ONE else could have him. I waited patiently and at 8 weeks exactly I drove eager to get him. Weighing in at 1.5 lbs, this tiny black & tan Yorkie, (that I choose to name “Mocha CoCo McDaniel” because he reminded me of chocolate for some reason) . . . came home with me. 1.5 lbs of AWESOMENESS that would change my world. I have way tooooooo many photos to share on the blog of how I’ve documented his life, but I did want to share a couple. Earlier today I wanted to get a few photos because his hair color is changing again and it amazes me how this has happened several times over these 5 years. (His hair color changes almost as much as mine . . . ha.ha.)

Mocha at 8 weeks old . . . first day as part of our family. (all black & tan like his puppy dad)

He kept this basic look for a little while . . .

Then he started to get some grey . . .

And then more tan came out . . .

Then he got all this silver, like his birth mommie. Gorgeous I think, but then if he were rainbow colors I would think he was perfect. Funny story to add : I once had a little girl ask me if he was a very old puppy because he was grey like her grandmother…ha.ha.

Now he is starting to get BLACK back into his hair color. One stripe that runs horizontal across his back. It is too cute. Oh what color will he be when he turns 5 in August??? ha. ha.

happy Friday!
