mmmmmmm -- ima lovin' !

Today I'm grateful for impromptu after-school naps...

...finishing my first camera strap cover...

...cousins who travel great distances for a visit...

...the beauty of brushfire smokey sunsets

and moonsets...

...lovely buds on my "Blue Boy"...

...and wonderful FIL who met a need.

"Aug" Biscuits

Have I told you that our doggie is quite the finicky eater? He dislikes peanut butter - so any Scooby Snacks made with that get his upturned nose...

So it was with great fear & trepidation that I mixed together these items:

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/3 C. ground brown rice

1/3 C. oatmeal

1 T. bouillon granules

1 T. olive oil

½ C.  sour milk

1 egg

& cut them out then baked them at 350° for 30 minutes.

Well, I'll let the pictures tell how the story ended...

Happy Adoption Day, Auggie!

Love you, our sweet lhasapoo.

You have been such a joy this past year.

Your little tricks for treats make us smile, every time... 

"Wait'll we get our Hanes on you..."

We might have chosen you at the Humane Society, but you've rescued us from a life of boredom!

Thank you for being the best dog!

doesn't like the pool, so he rolls in the dirt

Acting like a cat, reading books with H.

favorite spot to nap is on top of clean laundry

Loving this

happy to be mom to this

and these

happy to be married to this

unhappy to find this

under my desk belonging to this

(but so happy he ♥s being close to me all the time...)

happy to live here

happy to join up with this

I'm loving...

a bit of (healthful) goodness from Costco to my pantry

I usually have to find this at Sprouts.

Thank you, Paisley Jade, for another time of reflecting on God's goodness!

Auggie the Doggie

So... now he has a name...  & yes, we have been watching Covert Affairs this summer. L.O.V.E. it!

So, now he's got a bandana:

(I was just going to monogram it -- but anyone can have an "A"!)

So, now he has a bed:

(The reverse side is a salvaged quilt.)


I also made one for friend Pauline's pooch:

...complete with matching crinkle-y chewie...
