I have a very special Christmas present to share, well not actually a gift from anyone, but one we had been promising ourselves, since we lost 2 of our dogs last summer. And here she is - she arrived on Boxing Day, little Bella!
Isn't she adorable!!! What a cute little puppy face. She is a Schnoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle mix) and 3 months old. She has currently become the Diva-Miss of the couch and chair and won't let any of the others get any attention while she is around. What others might you wonder? Well I have been dogsitting for Nick's friends the past 2 weeks, a Chihuahua named Mason, and I have Stu and Kelsey, Maisie and Maddie. That's a lot of dogs!The kids are all off to various parties tonight and we are having friends over to help bring in the New Year... and yet another dog.
Just to get in a little stitchiness, here is a pillow I finished off in time for Christmas. Its hardly timely to show Christmas stitching but I thought the sentiment appropriate for tonight!
Happy New Year!
Your puppy is SO cute! And you do have a lot of dogs at your house LOL! Fun! I am excited for you having a new dog around.
ReplyDeleteThe pillow is very pretty, I like the border you put around it, that looks good framing it.
Congrats on the new member of the family - she is adorable!! We are going to a get-together tonite with friends - there will be 6 dogs there - all sizes from XL to XS so I know what you're going through. Your pillow is very cute! Happy New Year Wendy.
