Froggie visit

No this isn't a tree that a little froggie might want to climb....this is a little froggie on my floor :) I was putting the furkids to bed and the last time I went by I noticed something on the floor...looking closer it I saw the little guy...amazing the dogs didn't find him and play with him

I like how he changed colors in the pictures.....Looks like he is trying to figure out how to get away from the maniac with a camera taking pictures

Baby boys :)

a friend just had her fourth baby.....another boy :) that makes 5 boys 1 girl in the house...yikes :) Haven't had a model to see how all these hats I am making fit so poor Ethan got to try on a bunch of hats today to see how they fit a new baby's head....

he got to keep this one :)

Puppy sitting

I am puppy sitting for someone who got one of the large cockapoos from me when I was selling them for my friend Melinda....He doesn't look like a cockapoo but he is :) His name is Dakota and he is really a sweet puppy...

This picture cracked me up when I was looking thru the downloaded pictures...he sure looks like he is winking :)

And a comparison shot between Dakota and Bosco....monster vs tiny

Size differences

It is so hard to actually show how different these two are in size. Pixie continues to grow but is very tiny...her sister is a normal size altho when I pick her up she is lighter than some of her siblings....

if i had put their tails together this could have been a heart :)

Maybe this shows the size the best altho part of it is blown out with the light on the side....

sharpening

Played with sharpening a bit....I lightened the pic first and then sharpened it and what a difference

Before

After

Pixie dust and others

Pixie dust is holding her own...at three weeks she still only weighs 7.5 ounces but is developing like she should :)...just teenie tiny

this is Marley...isn't he cute :)

here is the entire litter...thot the one laying almost on his head was cute

this little guy is walking around very well on his feet...he was out walking so I grabbed him and got the camera and snapped some pics

One second of fame

Flowers

My husband brought me this bouquet of Summery flowers :) So took a couple of different angles to see which one I liked the best :)

Willows and tv

Went with Noel to Snohomish today...a local city that has lots of antique type stores and some vintage type stuff too...I got these lit willow branches to add to my pussy willows and curly willows.

But the story of the day was a local tv station was out filming in the city today. We walked into the store we were aiming for and they were just outside. When we came out they had moved down the street a bit and stopped us to ask if we facebooked. Both of us said that we did...so the next obvious question was how many friends do we have...well I only have a few over 100 but Noel has over 600 so she was the obvious person to talk to....so to make a long, fun day into a short story...Noel is going to be on Evening Magazine tomorrow talking about facebook with John Curley. The funny thing is even tho she is going to be on tv neither of us have any kind of cable hookup to actually watch the show :) Good thing my other daughter does :)

Differences

These pups are only 2 weeks different in age and about 10 pounds different in weight. The apricot one is a large cockapoo and the little one is probably going to be a toy cockapoo....

Pups and people

Some people came to see their puppy today so we were in with the pups and Sadie (a mom) and Riley (the dad) laid down in the middle of the room like this...it was too funny......

Sadie is my shy dog...someone frightened her and now she is wary of most strangers. Wayne picked her up and Sadie gave him a kiss...so cute

Pure Bliss..for both the puppy and the new owner holding her

Why do the kid pics always win?

Lila came over today with her mom and grandmother to pick up her grandmother's new puppy. Lila saw Bosco and from then on he couldn't walk anywhere...she had to carry him and play with him...he even took a trip down the slide with her...not sure how they got up on the playset but she got him up there. this was my pic of the day

This is Diane...she is the one that came to get her puppy. She lives in North Carolina and flew in to visit her daughter and granddaughter and to get Jackson...her new puppy. Diane was thrilled to meet her new pup... he just melted into her arms and it was love at first sight :)

As they were leaving I thot this was too cute of a picture to not take :)

Play date

Madison and Cameron came over for a bit today while their mom attended and autism conference. After playing with the dogs for a bit they both settled down to read...and of course that is an open invitation to snuggle according to the dogs...when i saw them i had to get the camera out and snap snap a few pictures :)

do the dogs not look happy or what??

I just love the look on madison's face on this picture

annie kept wanting to get closer to cameron..just love the laughter that comes out of this boy

annie perfectly happy in cameron's lap

Bee-utiful

I saw this cute hat on a web site and thot "I can make that" ...well sure I can but this attempt failed and I ended up ripping all of this hat out..well almost...the stripes were way too big which was making this young babies hat way too big....so out came the needles and out came the stitches and started almost all over again :)

Here is the finished hat...much better...........and way too cute...now to find a precious baby whose head needs a warm bumble bee hat...

Snow Geese

Went for a ride today...first in a long time and came upon this field covered with Snow Geese. They spaned a couple of acres of just white Snow geese...it was an awesome sight to see...

Someone drove by and somehow scared them because all of a sudden the honking started and the noise of hundreds of wings flapping as hundreds of snow geese took to the air

Here is a cool picture of only several of them flying

Part of the field before they took to flight

In progress

Took this picture off of my computer :) Am making one of these bumble bee hats...they are so cute...maybe tomorrow's picture will be of the hat in progress

Catch up

trying to catch up on pictures cuz apparently I missed a day...maybe that was the day that I spent going to my vets twice ....first to get the new puppies dews done and then back with one of the older dogs whose eye was swollen and full of pus....(she is ok now)

Swine Sign

On a hill really close to the a highway, stands this sign. It appeared one day after I had seen a pot bellied pig on the hill and wondered how the pig got there...but left it grazing on the hill. A couple of days later this sign appeared...more people must have seen the pig and contacted the owners :)

I got the first picture in the morning when I wanted to get my picture of the day...had a few extra minutes and swung by to get the sign picture. When driving by later in the day I saw the pig on the hill and turned and got a picture of it :)

I decided to get out of the car and get a closer picture of the piggie...being a good little piggie it turned to let me get a picture of it :)

Madison and the runt

Madison came over while her older brother was having a birthday bash with some of his friends...she got to feed the little runt that I have been supplementing. What more can a little girl ask for :)

The smile says it all...I am in heaven :)

The little pup seems to be doing well now..finally gaining weight. She is a week old today and is just a little bit over her birth weight. I think we are over the hump as she is nursing and getting bottle fed. I might even have to keep this sweet little girl :)
