The Queen Of Sass!

Today has been great. After lunch some very nice college students came out to take a tour of the rescue ranch and then they walked Red and Reba McIntyre down to the creek, so they could let the dogs go swimming.

Around 4:00, Karon called. She told Tony that she and Dalton would be coming over around 6:30 to pick up Reba. She also told Tony that she was going to change Reba's name to Buttercup The Queen of Sass! And Tony, Brandon and I love her new name.

This evening after Karon had officially changed Reba's name and adopted her, she started playing with her. "Why is she so fat today?" Karon asked. "Buttercup looks like she swallowed a bowling ball."

After all of us had quit laughing, Tony told her that he had caught her eating Red's food this morning, after he had left their pen to go feed more dogs. Then Brandon, who is quick-witted and very funny teased Karon and said, "Come over here, Butterball." Then we all started laughing.

"Brandon, her name is Buttercup, even though tonight she looks like a Butterball," Karon said, in between her laughs.

"It butter be," I teased. "I can't believe it's not butter." Then we all started making really corny "butter this" or "butter that" remarks.

The best one was Brandon's remark, "And, you can call her Butter Bean when she has gas."

Anyway, everyone at the rescue ranch is thrilled that our little butterball is now Karon's and Dalton's Buttercup pup. And that is about it for tonight, because I butter go outside to see what the dogs are barking about.

Y'all have a great evening! And please note that I am not buttering you up!  : )
