My two part dog story is in the following two posts. My son read them and I am in the Doghouse big time!!! Over the last 39 years we have had we have had three dogs I was reminded. He "shamed" me (uh oh ~ my family seems to have shame issues!) for leaving out our sweet Cauli - our very first dog......so I'll leave that to him to tell Cauli's story. (Are you there, Brandon? hellooo? just email me!) Ruff 'n woof - Lilly and Nancy "There's that camera again - I better lay my ears down"

That's interesting - there's a dog treat taped to the camera!

  3. Nancy, Beverly asked you to add my name as a favor to me. I am down with the most awful flu, and I haven't touched my computer since Tues, until now.

    I adore your Lilly, she is beautiful. I love her story. I read your former post as well. There is no doubt this little dog joining your family is definitely a WIN, WIN situation. Smile

    Thank you for visiting my Babette. She has a much longer story, but it was all I could do, to get her posted this morning. I couldn't miss showing off my little girl.

  20. I didn't even know there was one until today or yesterday! I'm so confused with my days being on vacation in Calif and grandkids/hubby running around crazily, my little crafty texan chick!!! Hah.....Anyway, thank you for the compliment on the captchas. I don't like them either but sometimes they are necessary. I just approve all my comments, sweets! Off to have lunch.....or is it dinner.....or brunch!!! I'm so confused.
    Smoochies,
    Connie
