Our new fur baby

As some of you know we lost our sweet little Pixie dog

to cancer last year

 

RIP

This spring we knew it was time

to start looking for a new

"Fur Baby"

 

 

Decisions, decisions

 

What breed, what size,

shedding or no shedding

 

I had already decided on a name

Lacy Mae

(a good southern name) 

 

We lived on the internet researching dog breeders.

.....then one day hubby called me and said

"I think I've found Lacy Mae"

 

That's her in the middle between her two brothers

 

As soon as I got home we called Susan at

"DREAM MAKER PUPPIES"

http://www.dreammakerspuppies.com/



 

I can't speak highly enough about

John & Susan

at Dream Maker Puppies

They are wonderful folks

and first class breeders

 



The next weekend we were headed to

Willis, Texas to meet our new fur baby

 

Introducing
Miss Lacy Mae
Toy Schnauzer

 

We are in love with this sweet baby and she is doing a great job of training us to

be her parents!  She has taken over

our lives and hearts!!

 

 

 

 helping out in the kitchen



relaxing on the screened porch

 

 

Playing with her many toys

or just showing off!

 







Lots to love about Lacy Mae!

When we lost Pixie it left and huge hole in our hearts

Lacy Mae is doing her best to fill it right up!!

Bird Cage Lamp

Last Saturday my girlfriend, Judy

and I went to the city wide garage sale

in Cuero, Texas

 

We found some good bargains

 

One was a $3.00 bird cage

 

I brought it home, took off the

plastic red bottom

 

and turned the top into a lamp!!

 

Have you ever seen a bird cage turned into a lamp?

 

It's definitely different!

Kind of eclectic don't you think
 

Every Little Birdie says

 

 

Now the question?????

Will I keep it or sell it.



Junkin' @ the Antique Spring Show

My sister and I spent two days

at the Round Top Antique Fair

 

 

We shopped till we dropped!

 

Let's wander around and see all the
wonderful treasures to be had......

 

 

 

It was a little chilly and windy the first day

but miles and miles of shopping

will warm you up!

 

We're walking, we're shopping

 

we're touching, we're feeling

we're looking and oh yes
WE ARE BUYING!

 

 

 

The second day my niece and

her new puppy "Lord Nelson" joined us

 

 

He was a hit at the show!

Everyone loves a puppy!!

 

 

 

Nelson finally had to give up his

chariot to make space for 

 all our treasures and junk,

but he was a real sport

and loved his day with the girls shopping 

 



Wouldn't this be a good time to
crawl up in this pretty bed and take
a short nap????

 

 

If you want it.... they got it!!!!

 

there is one of everything at this

awesome show
