Christmas in July

A blogger friend Brenda over at Shabby Cats And Roses recently had a wonderful Christmas in July giveaway & guess who won ME!! Yay!  I was so thrilled! & today it came in the mail!

 

I won this beautiful Christmas stocking. It is so girly I love it.

 Billie just thought he had to model the stocking.

In the giveaway I also won this gorgeous sachet, & omgosh it smells sooooo wonderful

Little Bunny Fufu also modeled the stocking.

Brenda was so sweet to also add some little extra's to my Giveaway, The Rose and little candle were apart of that such perfect colors for my decor. Also a Jolee's bling dimensional sticker, it is so pretty & glittery I have to find the perfect project to use them for. all these things are so very me, so very thoughtful of her!

If you are not a follower of Brenda already be sure to visit her blog it is wonderful!

Group picture of my babies I took tonight.

They got tired of me taking pictures then fell asleep on me

About an hour after I took these photo's I was siting at the dining room table on my lap top, & I glance over at the living room and little bunny Fufu is still sitting right were I left him. He is so funny how he just stays were ever I put him. As I'm working on this post he is still sitting there, I am sure he won't get down until I take him off the love seat Lol. You may be wondering what the covered up love seat is, well it is an up coming project you will have to stay tuned for, what is under the blanket is not so pretty right now but I have big plans for it! I moved my tv on top of the fireplace instead to make room for the  love seat. What do you think?

But of course I could never get rid of my gorgeous TV stand, so I found a new place for it. Now being used as a buffet type thing in my dining room

I moved the dresser that was where the TV stand/ buffet is now to the other side of my hutch.

 

Beautiful flowers from my Grandmother

I went over to get a closer picture of Little bunny sitting by himself on the  love seat, and right as I get my camera out Lacie jumps up and poses right next to Fufu, I swear I did not put her like this, I did not even plan for her to be in the photo they are so used to having their picture taken they know what to do I guess Lol

Happy 3rd Birthday Little Bunny Fufu

Today my Little Bunny Fufu turned 3 years old!

I brought my pets over to my parents house on Sunday night, which is when we had a little celebration for Fufu's birthday. Today July 24th is Fufu's real birthday but we celebrated on the 22nd since I had to work today the 24th.

We had a carrot cake as we do ever year on Fufu's birthday.

 Always a Carrot cake since he is a rabbit. Lol

Little Bunny Fufu had lots of his animal friends celebrating his birthday with him, between my pets & my parents pets.

I took this picture of Little Bunny Fufu today. I can not believe he is 3 years old already.

 I love him so much!

Bella & Lacie

 I just wanted to share some photo's I took today at a local park. This park is wonderful it has everything! The park has a dog park, where the doggie's can ran around loose off their leash (all fenced in) and play together, there are separate sections of big dogs and little dogs. It has sports fields, a playground, picnic table areas & a nature trial. We went to play at the dog park this afternoon, but there was no other small dogs for Bella & Lacie to play with, this normally is an issue for us, there is always lots of big dogs in that section but never very many if any little dogs. So we decided to take a walk on the trail and take some pictures.

Lacie

Here is a video of Bella & Lacie playing in the doggie park section. My sister Chantel & her dog Daisy also came with us today as you see for just a second in the video, Daisy just likes to chill and watch the other dogs, Bella & Lacie love to run around like crazy!

R.I.P Sassy

Today my childhood kitty Sassy passed away she was 17 years old. I will miss her so much. But I am so glad she lived such a long life. We got Sassy when I was 5 years old, she brought me so much happiness growing up, she was a true best friend.

This picture was of Sassy's first birthday party! She was so so loved.

(Yes that is me holding her)

Me with Sassy & Snuffy

Snuffy also passed away a few years ago I miss him so much. My Billie boy reminds me a lot of Snuffy.

Sassy as a kitten

I have always been an animal lover.

R.I.P Sassy I love you.

Mirrors, Flowers, & Fur Babies

This weekend I was able to get some mirrors up on the mirror wall. My best friend's Dad has a "little giant" ladder I borrowed, these ladders are awesome because you can adjust the two sides to different lengths, so it can be placed on stairs. I am going to be on a hunt on Craigslist for one of these ladders for myself. They are super neat but crazy expensive to buy brand new, so hopefully I can find a used one for myself. It would be very handy to have one to clean the mirrors & to continue my mirror wall on the other 4 walls around the stairs I plan to do.

I can't wait until all the walls are filled up and the mirrors will be reflecting the mirrors on the other side. The large plain oval mirror that is on the right side is reflecting the wall great that someday will also be filled with vintage mirrors.

View from front door

I feel the mirror wall makes a big statement when you walk in the front door, I am loving it.

I found this sign at Goodwill, I thought it was pretty funny being the huge animal lover I am. I do like kids don't get me wrong, but since I don't have any, this sign is pretty comical for me to have.

My Grandmother brought me these gorgeous flowers, I am so lucky she always make me such gorgeous arrangements.

My entry table

I got these two little mirrors at goodwill recently for the mirror wall. I actually found them in the same week at two different Goodwill's. Then when I was going through my mirrors to hang for the wall,  I found that I had a big version of this mirror already, I forgot I had it and decided to put them here instead of on the mirror wall. I think they look adorable as a little matching set.

I have such awesome Grandparents. My Grandpa put together this cute little potted plant for me how sweet of him.

Now a post would not be complete without my fur babies...

Have you seen Boo? Oh my gosh he is this adorable little Pomeranian (same breed as Lacie & Bella) with a funny little hair cut, he is so adorable. He even has his own books as seen with my girls here.

Lacie & Bella say it would be their dream come true to meet Boo & his adorable best friend Buddy.

 

 

Bella & Little Bunny Fufu

I was having a fun time with the thought bubbles on picmonkey.com

The kittens are growing up so fast! I took my 3 over to my parents house yesterday, to have a play date with their 2 siblings who live there, & I took this updated 10 week old photo of them all.

 We could not forget a picture of sweet little Billie Boy, my Mother gave him a bath for me yesterday. My Mother has alot of experience in grooming Persians, being that she used to breed and show them. Doesn't he look great?

Thanks for stopping by my blog, hope to see you again soon.

Flowers from Grandma

I just love having fresh cut flowers in the house. My sweet Grandmother is so nice to bring me fresh cut flowers out of her garden on a regular basis. These are the flowers she brought me this week. Aren't they gorgeous?

Thank you Grandma!

Some fun editing wit Picmonkey.com

The blue vases are not meant to be vases, they are actually candle holders but I thought it'd be fun to do something a little different with them.

Take time to smell the roses & pet the kitties
