Stella tagged us a long time ago to share 40 things about us. Since we do everything as a family, the items on the list include things about Eva, Brice, Momma and Dad.

6. her butt fur and undercoat mats really easy
7. always sleeps on the floor next to dad's side of the bed
8. is allowed off leash when she goes out to the get the mail
9. is scared of thunderstorms, fireworks, and loud children
10. has her own tiara
11. does not like peas but loves cauliflower
12. assumes that the fridge door opening means she gets some cheese
13. her favorite place is the dog park

Brice
1. gained a pound between the last vet visits
2. went to the vet on Tuesday to have his hips and elbows x-rayed for evaluation by the OFA
3. his uncle is the #4 Terv in the country and has competed at Westminster in previous years
4. growls in his sleep

6. burps after every meal
7. won best of breed at his first dog show
8. when he is up on his hind legs, you don't have to bend very far for a kiss
9. sometimes his teeth are involved in a kiss
10. Both Brice and Eva are very paw oriented
11. loves to be brushed
12. gets his nails dremeled
13. thinks everyone is his new best friend
14. loves to clean his sister's and Momma's ears
15. is on a blanket on the bed gnawing on a bone

Momma and Dad
1. have been married for 18 years
2. Dad grew up on a farm
3. Momma gave Dad a motorcycle for their 10th anniversary
4. Dad is the oldest of 5 kids and Momma is the youngest of 2 but her brother died two years ago
5. Before us, they had 3 cats - Angel, Taz and Lola and 2 pups - Tia and the one and only Tasha
6. Momma was born on Thanksgiving
7. Dad's favorite movies/documentaries include Star Wars (only the original 3), Shawshank Redemption, the Thin Man series, The War (Ken Burns), most military movies
8. Music tastes include everything from Vivaldi to Flogging Molly to Kid Rock to Elvis to Aerosmith to Dean Martin. But very little Country, Rap or Opera.
9. Momma's favorite dinner includes great crusty warm bread, imported butter, a thick rare grilled steak with mushrooms, and a dessert with dark chocolate. Don't clutter the plate with veggies.
10. Dad always calls Momma when he leaves work and since he just called, it's time to go.

That was a challenge. If you haven't done it, consider yourself tagged.

Woof ya later,
Princess Eva

It is always nice to learn more about our friends.

Great list. We are not sure how this went from MySpace as "25" things to "40" when it hit DWB, but just made it more challenging.

P.S. - Brice - The Herd has a burping contest after every meal, so you would fit in nicely.

That was all so interesting! I've SEEN Eva in her tiara and Eva, you look GORGEOUS in it! You're a very nice puppy!
And Brice - I'm the burper of our pack! :) And I am paw oriented. I loved it when you smacked me with your paws. Sigh. We were meant for each other!
Love
Ammy

That was really interesting learning more about you. Your mom's birthday and our dad's birthdays must be very close to the same day. Sometimes his birthday is Thanksgiving too. We were birthday presents to him, one day early, and we came home on Nov. 25. :-)
