It’s not Halloween Yet…

How do you tell your very enthusiatic 2 year old, almost 3, that it’s not Halloween?

Even if he is a dog.

Dogs have feelings too, ya know.

 

Miles, it’s not Halloween yet.

Halloween dog 1

He’s confused seeing pumpkins all over the garden me thinks.

 

What did you say mama?

 

I said, it’s not Halloween yet.

There are still 74 days until Halloween.

 

Oh nooooooooooo!!!

Halloween dog 2

(Note little Matty in the background saying, see, told you so)

Slow guttural noises ensue such as…

Mmmmeeer, mrrrrreeear, mreeeeeee, mrmmph -heee, mmmrm, mmmrm, mmmrm.

Whining if you will, but in a very Miley way.

Then, the sulk.

Halloween dog 4

It’s okay Miley.

Halloween dog 5

If you want, we can all pretend it’s Halloween.

Then, the look.

Halloween Dog 6

Now what am I supposed to do with that look?

Hahahaaaa!

Well, he would be 14-16 if he were human right?

Oh, yes, then it’s “the” look.

Teenagers, I tell ya.

Of course we can’t “pretend” it’s Halloween.

Silly me.

Hahahaa!

 

Sparkly heart

 

 

ps:  The skies have been filled with passion the last few days.

Lightning, thunder, clouds and colors.

Nope, no rain.

Yet.

Still wishing though.

Those skies surely make up for it.

A little 😉

    Methinks Miss Vanessala wants it to be Halloween as much as Mr. Miles does. Yep, that’s what methinks. ; )
    Gorgeous weather photo!!

  2. Cori G. says:

    Oh sweet Miles! I’d take him out trick or treating if its ok with you!
    Beautiful sky, Vanessa!! Hubby and I just came back from Victoria BC and I saw a meteor fly right over my wee little head…amazing and it makes you feel so small in the universe, but that’s ok because small is always a good thing!
    Love to you my fanciful friend-ling
    Cori

  3. Mister TH Spider does tooooo ;)))
    I wish you could have been here to see that sky with me dearest friend, it was like, unreal in every way.
    The night before there was lightining in a rainbow – I tried to get shots… I need to go through them.
    I am determined to get some lightning in my camera!
    Love, Vanessa

  4. Let’s all go trick or treating together!!!
    You would love Miles, he is so sweet and gentle.
    But I make sure to make special me and Matty time too, as he is a finicky and ornery one who needs extra alone time 😉
    He loves alone time with me. I think Miles annoys him 🙂
    I saw meteors too, but i bet yours seemed closer?
    LOVE YOU CORICAKES!!

    I agree very much with your precious fur son!!! I want Halloween and Samhain, NOW. 🖤 It’s our favorite holiday in this house! I love your babies, they are absolutely ADORABLE. Also, that sky, whoa! I love Utah skies, we have some vivid colors here as well! I long for and love rain, all the time.

  10. Melanie says:

    So precious – that face!

  11. Skirts, yes we need skirts!!! A kilt for Miles maybe ? 😉

  12. WE just came in from a tinge of rain – not enough – but a tinge, a taste, and appetizer, maybe tomorrow will gift us some realy rain??? Here’s hoping 😉

  13. Danka Melanie 😉 Wa are partial to it, he isn’t hard to love, hahaa!

  14. Linda Diane says:

    Oh, my heart is warmed that you still have an affection for Mister TH Spider, Vanessa! : )

  15. Victoria says:

    Miles is sooooo adorable! I would be putty in his paws. We’re still hoping for rain over here in the So. California mountains, but haven’t gotten but a few drips and drops. I hope you get some more rain soon!
    Blessings,
    Victoria

  16. Victoria, I am putty in his paws ;))
    Tonight he went in my bed, and not on his side with his own sheet for bed
    protection – and it had sprinkled and he was filthy –
    Mud and dirt everywhere.
    I had to strip my whole white cozy bed and rewash. In fact, I am
    waiting for it all to dry. And I vacuumed etc.
    And you know what? I love him so, I am not angry in the least, or
    annoyed or upset 🙂
    Now thats love, aint it?
    ps: I can not believe you have not had any rain in your super high
    elevation, I think I am at about 3122 or so, must check that again. We got
    some big sprinkles, but only enough to make 104 feel perfectly sauna like
    😉

  19. Oh my goodness!! That is sooo funny! What a sweetie.
    I want it to be Halloween too

  20. Oh WOW! Your storm photo is so AMAZING! The pup’s not bad either ;o)

  21. I am sure he would love to sulk with you, especially if you are giving free massages, belly preferred 😉

  22. Hahahaa! I always say they are doing downward doggie yoga 😉

  23. Kelly says:

    Love the photo of Matty peeking around the corner as Miles is bowing in his “wishful” stockings! How long does it take to capture such moments as these Vanessa? Super cute every one of these photos!!! Ahhh… the growing anticipation for Halloween!!!! Yikes, the way the temps have been here and 111 degrees today I am really looking forward to all things fall. Stay cool my friend!;)

  24. Emalina says:

    Teehee to Miles in his socks! Amazing night skies you’re having sweetheart.

  25. The skies are being passionate again right now Emalina, you should see
    them, its crazy 🙂

  26. Annalee says:

    Miles in socks is the best thing I’ve seen all week… all month. What a cutie! And I love how Matty lurks in the background, keeping an eye on everything. ^-^
    And that sunset is amazing. I’ve never seen such red clouds before. So gorgeous! =D
    Hope you & all your boys are doing well!
    XOXO

  27. Oh mister miley Miles…what a doll baby with that look 😉 The sky is so beautiful too! Wishing you some rain soon too.

  30. Kelly, it happened so fast, I am so glad my camera was near – I would have missed it is 5 seconds more had gone by 😉
    I know, it’s been sooooo hot hasn’t it?
    We need rain, we need rain, we need rain 😉

  31. Ohhhh Miles! Sweet Miles…I know just how you feel. I want to wear Halloween socks too. It’s been so hot here, the thought of a blustery Autumn day is delightful, isn’t it? Spooky movies on the television, houses all decorated with orange pumpkin goodness and scary witches!
    I love your socks!
    xoxo

  32. Marilyn says:

    Oh the passion of the sky is gorgeous!
    Silly dog, I love his costume too. He needs some hugs.

  33. Miss Linda says:

    Well, Miles is already.. Cutie pie…..I am already too. Just have to unpack a thing or two.
    Beautiful photo..Suitable for framing I think.

  34. Jenn says:

    Miles Miles Miles! How sweet in his bewitching socks. There’s no need to be stealing my puppy anymore, he’s a grown up like Miley now! They could be brothers 😉

  35. Ronni Ann says:

    Oooh, yes. And take one of your fabulous photos to show us!

  36. Cameron says:

    That is a look to melt hearts, alright….
    Perhaps a little Monster Mash in the background might cheer him up 🙂

  37. sj says:

    He looks adorable in those stockings! When my daughter was younger she had a pair of tights about the same color.

  38. Theresa says:

    This is such a DELIGHTFUL post!!!!! How cute of our little sweetie to oblige wearing those awesome stockings and pose with that pumpkin! I TOO wish it were Halloween. I LOVE the fall so so so so very much!!!!
