Christmas Bonita

I know it is a little early...but here is Santa Beagle. She would like to wish everyone a very merry Christmas!

Bogota Video

Hail storm

Here are a few pictures of what Bogota looked like yesterday. Ken and I were on this very road, but we were there for the very beginning of the storm. The whole way home, Ken and I kept saying, "If we only had a video camera, no one will believe this." I must point out that we witnessed the storm not out of stupidity, but because the day was beautiful until about ten minutes before the storm started. People who were trapped in their cars were actually treated for hypothermia because they were dressed for a summer day. For the first time since we lived here, our snow tires were very useful.

Happy Halloween

This Saturday Bonita attended the local dog bakery's Halloween Costume contest. Her are some of Bonita's friends all dressed for the occasion. For participating Bonita got lots of great treats, a week's supply of dog food, and her picture posted in the bakery.

Underdog!!!!

I admit this dog's costume was much better then Bonita's. We were jealous.

Happy Halloweener!

Bonita's Diet Plan

Bonita and I are slightly discouraged that no one has joined the Bonita in Bogotá Great Weight Loss Challenge. Although this guarantees my ultimate success, I am still highly disappointed. Bonita has even threatened to sign up many of her favorite grandmothers, aunts, and uncles. Hint Hint...
Bonita would also like to point out that Russian cats are even invited to join!

Bonita?

Once again it is time for GUESS THAT OBJECT!!!

Todays object....

Is it a dog or is it a pillow???



or is it a pillow dog???

Bonita's diet plan

Since moving to Colombia, Ken and I have repeatedly said that Colombia has caused us to lose weight. We have explained that food contains no preservatives, beef is free range, fruits are cheep, the dog makes us walk, we bike every weekend, walking is our major source of transportation. I could continue this list of explanations, but in the end...I've gained almost 30 pounds since we moved to Colombia. That is equivalent to almost two Bonitas. I'm chubby!!! To add insult to injury every Colombian woman weighs approximately 80 pounds (give or take 25 pounds). This means that I look like I might have ate a Colombian. I promise I haven't, but I have probably consumed several free range steers.
Well after having denied that I'm chunky, I am now finally excepting my fate as a porky American. Ken and I have joined a gym. I am happy to report that I am officially 9 pounds lighter. WOOHOO!!! Only one more pound and I have lost half a Bonita.
In celebration I am starting the "Bonita in Bogota great weight loss challenge". I'm sure you are asking...How can I join? All you have to do is comment to this post. Write down your starting weight (you don't have to post it), and start working your behind off. The person who loses the most weight by December 25th wins a free Bonita.... HAHA, In Ken's dreams! They get their choice of a massage (spa of their choice), fifty dollars, or manicure and pedicure (spa of their choice).
