Meet Bob.

This is Bob. He has amazing limey-turquoisey eyes and he drools when he's happy. 

Bob has white paws that he makes a week's worth of biscuits with. 

Bob enjoys a vigorous groom with his pink comb. He likes it even more when its on the kitchen table.

Bob also likes when there is Louis on the table. Bob has good taste. 

Bob likes his treats, too. Bob talks with his mouth full and tells you how much he likes his treats.

Bob is fantastic at supervising plant watering. 

Bob has a cat door that he uses when he has to. He much prefers for the human door to be opened for him though. And he'll make sure everyone knows about it.

Bob likes his mouse. Bob also has a very obvious "I'm done now" look. This is it. 

(Thanks for letting me Bob-sit MSS! He's a precious precious boy!) 

Shut the Front Door.

Brought to you by my sweet friend KJC... who knows what gets this girl's heart racing:

You know you're loved when a friend sees Sharpies and not only thinks of you but sends you a picture of the gloriousness.

{i heart you too, KJC! xx}

sweet giveaway!

I think one of the phenomenon's of blogging is you (I) get to feel like you (I) "know" a person ... when in real life, all you (I) know is what they post on the internet for you and 249,857,302 of their best (online) friends to read.

I wanted to share a giveaway with you.

I started my original post with "My friend, Cori...". But Cori doesn't know me.

I don't really know her. I know she's short (her blog says so). I know she has great style (her blog shows so). I know she uses great words like "despondent" to describe feelings (you know I love a great adjective). I know she sews ... and she's giving away one of my favorite skirts she makes on her blog.

I'm not sure that the stripes would be kind to me... but I do know that I would wear it, regardless.

How much fun would this be for school (oooooo... on Friday, with my school shirt and precious ballet flats? yes, please!). 

Go enter... and think of me if you win!

Brie is a star!

Ok... not really - but Jojo bought her a fabulous new collar at the farmer's market in Salt Lake City and we sent Brie's picture to the awesome artist who created it... and now Brie is on her webpage!

The artist, Dawn, creates a line of collars that she calls "WoofWare". We love them!

(and was it REALLY  July 9th since I last posted? wow! Blogger of the year!)

He said I was a firework

We spent the Fourth in Port Aransas - and the firework show at Robert's Point Park was nothing short of amazing this year. (It's actually amazing every year.) The park is right on the water about 50 yards from the ferry boats and the fireworks are set off about 20 yards from where we set up our chairs. Being so close means that the booms are louder, the bursts brighter and the experience thrilling.

(GAR and I couldn't resist a "sword fight" with our glowy sticks. I'm glad some things never change.)

Hope your Fourth of July was awesome.
