A New Friend

Thursday we had a surprise visitor.
Schmooples the Nug had traveled all the way from the US to come live with us.

Nugs are really cool creatures from the game Dragon Age. My owner and I love the game and the nugs. My owner's OtherHalf knows how much we love nugs, so that's why he invited Schmooples to come live with us.


These are the common nugs, who are about the size of a large rabbit.


This is a War Nug.
He's really big and strong and can be used as a mount.


Schmooples gave me a nuggyback ride to show he's really strong as well.


I think Schmooples and I will get along really well together.


And of course Schmooples wanted to play Dragon Age with us.


Thanks, E.!

Summertime

It was lovely weather on Tuesday, so you know what that means: Picnic!


We had a great time relaxing and enjoying the sun.


With yummy food and drink of course!

The New Church on a Sunny Evening

Dinogami and Amsterdam

Last week my owner got me a box that contained a book with origami patterns to make origami dinosaurs and colored paper to make them.


I immediately tried the pattern to fold a triceratops.
Here is the result together with a dinosaur that was already folded to give you an example of what you can make with the dinogami box.


I think the triceratops turned out really well.
I made some other dinosaurs as well, but haven't taken pictures of them yet.



Today my owner took me to Amsterdam where she went on a shopping trip with a friend.


We didn't take any pictures in Amsterdam except for this one: a statue of some famous Salvation Army lady.


Back in Groningen I spotted a new store that had a T-Rex building kit!
I know what's on my wishlist now!


We ended our day out by getting sushi at our favorite restaurant.

Yum!

Hippo and Dinosaurs in my Mail

There was a hippo bookmark in my mail this week!


Hammie and G. bought it for us, but forgot to give it to us when we met on Monday. Isn't it just awesome!?


I got a lollipop from my owner's OtherHalf this Friday.


And Dino-stickers for my dino book yesterday!
They were send to us by family of my owner. I also received stickers from co-workers and friends. I think it's awesome that so many people have wanted to help me get all 160 stickers.

Thanks everyone!
