Christmas Card Reveal!

Published by

Oooo fun day. I’m so excited about our cards this year! Here’s the close up: Ahhh… I just can’t get enough of those sweet faces. Seeing that last year didn’t go very well trying to get their photos, this year I kept them inside, separated them, and gave out lots of treats during the process :) Here are a few outtakes: As long as there’s good lighting, Finn is actually pretty easy to get a good picture of – and of course as long as he will slow down for a minute :/ Zoe always puts on her serious face when I have the camera out, but luckily she broke down and gave me a nice smile :) Then she got bored and walked away… so we were done. lol Oh and right now as I write this I can hear Finn snoring from the living room. You’d think he was an old man. I love my little furry old man. :) Another awesome tool I’ve found is lone squeakers. I ordered these ones to make …

Favorite Christmas Card: Blogmas14 Day 2

Published by

Okay so I really wanted to make if over to my parents house to find some old Christmas photos for this post, but I didn’t get that far. I’ll save those gems for later ;) haha so here’s my favorite Christmas card. It’s actually from last year. It was the first card Danny and I sent out together and if I do say so myself I think it turned out pretty adorable. If you’re new here… you may notice I’m a little pup-obsessed (just a smidge) ;). These are my little fur babies (if you’re bored and halfway interested, read their adoption stories here). So anyway, we tried to do a little Christmas photo shoot in the snow for our card last year. You can see how well that turned out. That top right photo… that was the best photo we got of Finn. Here it is bigger: Tongue out… pulling on his leash… this is typical everyday Finn. I love that crazy pup so much! And for Zoe’s picture… Danny was taking pictures trying …

Sometimes I shouldn’t be allowed to help with things…

So Danny has been going around the house fixing all of our blinds. They were reminiscent of this (or this or this). lol The’re the basic white blinds you can get at any home store for cheap… so yes, nothing crazy to replace, but he decided to go ahead and fix them since the renters hadn’t shortened any of them to fit the windows so they had plenty of extra rails (I feel like I’m not explaining this very well… this is what I’m talking about) lol so anyway… the other day, he fixed one of the ones in the bedroom and then the pups ran in there and messed up what he’d just fixed and he got frustrated. That’s how they all got messed up in the first place — pups love to look out windows :/ So after he fixed the nice big window downstairs, I was like “you should really pull up the shade so they can’t mess it up after you put in all that time to fix it.” Here I …

Pup Vest Sighting

Published by

I always get excited when I see BDAR pups in the vests that I’ve made. Here’s a picture from an adoption drive that I stole from Facebook the other day:  Pretty sure this sweet baby has already been adopted, but you can see all the other awesome adoptable BDAR pups here. Here’s what I’ve made so far… let me know if you have any suggestions for new ones. It’s almost about time to make another batch :) And if anyone ever uses my tutorial for adopt-me vests, please send pictures! I would love love love to see them! Adopt Me Vests – Round One plus a rough tutorial Adopt Me Vests – Round Two Donation Dog Vests Until next time,

Throwback Thursday: Mouse Edition

Published by

It’s been confirmed. We have a mouse. Or mice… not really sure yet. How do I know? Well… that answer is three-fold. For #1 I give you Zoe the hunter: She’s not very good at it – but she tries. And yes, on a side note, if you need any kind of electronic cord, just ask me. I have them all. These were all stacked in that closet; it’s no wonder the little guy thought it would be a decent place to hide. #2. Found a little pile of torn up yarn. And it wasn’t torn up like the puppies tear up yarn sometimes. It was in little pieces made into a nice little mouse bed. :/ #3. Yesterday morning, I put my foot in my boot only to find there was already something in it. Shook it out only to have a bunch of tiny pieces of dog food fly all over. Needless to say, Finn was excited… me, not so much. This brought me back to the last time I had a mouse experience… …
