Miss Bella

Thanks for all the emails asking about Miss Bella!!
I should have known to include a little note about her :)




She's doing very well .. we've had lots of snow this year and if you follow My Chic n Scratch papercrafting blog you've already seen what I'm about to share.

Miss Bella was on the Weather channel during the Winter Storm Q.  I was able to DVR it and I crack up every time I hear the weather man say "Miss Bella loves snow". 

Since the weather has been nasty .. no new pictures to share .... but I'll give you the link to the weather channel where you can see the video I submitted (I wish I could find the actual video of the weather guy talking about her).  Click here to see the video I submitted.

See ya!
p.s. sorry I have been all over the place with my posting.  I wish I could just have one blog and post all this on my main site .. but I've heard from too many people that they never read what I write .. they are just there for the pictures and the videos (and I appreciate their honesty).

Miss Bella and Photography

I could not resist sharing this funny picture with you today!

I'm working hard to catch up on my Photography Class and Miss Bella is the subject.

It was quiet windy this morning and she was squinting!

By the way .. she's doing very well on her electric fence training .. I'm happy to report she's not ran through the fence one time this week. 

I sure wish the shock collar was prettier!!!  Maybe I should write the company and suggest that girl dogs would prefer any color over black  .... for a box around their neck... we need choices!

See ya!

Miss Bella and her toys


My house looks like I have a toddler again!!
We call Miss Bella the eating machine!!

When she gets a new toy .. it takes her less than an hour to shred it completely.

In fact some of them only last five minutes (like the lamb I gave her at Christmas).

If you look real close at the 2nd picture .. she's chewed the dog feet off the plastic toy... this toy is currently in the trash .. it only had two feet left on it.

While I was in Orlando last week ... Dave was training her on the electric fence .... she's doing pretty good .. except when she sees a live body (neighbor or other animal)....she runs right through the fence ..shock and all!

 The whole house is giving me grief because I can't train her.  I'm so afraid she'll get hit by a car ..... once you've had that happen to you ...you never get over it! (Even if you were only five years old.)

Get this .. Dave trained her to come running when we bounce the tennis ball.  So, I stand at the door .... watch her go potty and the minute she's done .. I bounce the ball several times and she comes running.  Only catch ..make sure no one is outside... she ran after the meter reader dude today and I had my hair in a towel ..... was in my pjs and had no makeup on.  All I could say was Sorry!!
She only chased him because she LOVES everybody and everything .... she wouldn't bite a flea.

Now for some TV talk ...

The Bachelor was on last night .... I can't help but love it.  I usually pick my favorite .. but I'm having a hard time.  I liked Sarah .. his first one on one date... then I LOVED Desiree ... but I also like Kacie and Lesley (blond chick).  Like Sean said ..once he talked to them ..he saw potential in all of them.  So, I guess I'll hold off on my predictions .. for at least another week or so.  I can say "Tierra and Amanda need to go".  

Justified is on tonight ....I'm looking forward to week two of Season four!!  When I watch that show it reminds me of home (Tennessee and Kentucky accents are very similar).

Gotta run .. I haven't felt good since I got home from Orlando and its time for my daily nap (seriously .. it is ..when I'm sick .. I take naps).

Later!
p.s. Stampin' Up! announced several promotions at Leadership and one of the things that really struck me afterwards was how negative some people get .. before they know anything.  I sure hope I've taught my children to think positive until there's a reason to go negative.  I personally... am going to find a way to work all of it ...into a benefit for me and my business.

Photography Class

Today is day one of my Online Photography Class and I'm soooo excited!

I'm also scared to death!

How the heck am I going to fit this in .. with work?  And I leave for our Stampin' Up! Leadership meeting this week.

I told my assistant earlier today that this has been on my bucket list for a long time.  In fact I've tried to get in the class for a few years now.  Jan - March is not the ideal time ... but then again ... looking at the calendar ..when is?

So, I'm jumping in .. with two feet.  I'll either sink or swim. 

I printed all my material and it should give me something to read during the times the airline won't let me turn on my iPad.

I took my first picture on manual mode today .. it was too blurry to post .. so I snapped another with the auto mode.

Here's the unedited picture of Miss Bella (sorry she needs a bath after playing in the snow).


Here's the picture after I edited it in Photoshop Elements 10 (I cropped it and increased the contrast)

Amazing at what two steps can do to a picture!!


Isn't she so stinkin cute?
By the way ... Miss Bella is a Cavachon.
Half King Charles Cavalier and half Bichon Frise (she doesn't shed either).


See ya!

Such a large bed .... For such a little dog.

My Christmas tree gets smaller every year!

Dave and I went to Ace Hardware and Hobby Lobby this morning and when we got home he said ... our Christmas tree gets smaller every year!



For the past two years I've used my Kitchen tree in the living room ... it was tall and skinny.  But this year I decided that I didn't want to move furniture  ..... you could basically say I'm being lazy!!

I bought this 4 foot tree at Hobby Lobby.

 I think I'll get past this lazy stage ...but maybe not.

I'm still toying with whether or not to bring up a couple Snow Villages.

Today is Chase's 20 birthday ... bless his heart he had to work at Best Buy from midnight last night to noon today.  He's pretty zonked out!!

Here's a picture I took of Miss Bella tonight ... she's so dang cute!  We're training her on the electric fence this week and she was doing really well ...and now she's not.... I hope Dave gets it done before he leaves (I'm too emotional to watch her get a shock).

See ya!

Another iPhone test

My post from last night showed me that ....if you click on the picture ....it takes you to my Picasa album.

I'd prefer it take you to my blog.

So, I'm testing another app (Blogger) to see how this one works.

Here's a picture I took of Miss Bella last night using the Awesome Camera app on my iPhone (that's really the app name).


See ya!

Miss Bella is five months old today

Miss Bella is five months old today .... 22 weeks old tomorrow.
Someone ask me when I'm going to stop counting the weeks and I said "I'm not sure .... I guess when it starts to sound crazy".

I took a bunch of pictures of her today ...here's a few .....

This one was taken after she chewed up her hair brush ... We call this her guilty look.
If you look real close you can see her piece of carrot under her foot :)


Doesn't she look like a stuffed animal?

Bella was determined to get the hair brush from Brooke!!



Out on the deck ...... she loves being outside!

Tired from all the running around.

I took a bunch more .... but I'll stop here.

See ya later!

Miss Bella and her first hair cut

Here's a before picture with the groomer at The Pet Ranch.


She looks a little shaggy ...but adorable!
I wonder ....am I the first to ask .... if I can take a picture?
It was her first hair cut .....I had to have it for the scrapbook.
Here's some after pictures........


Remind me ... start using my real camera and take some better pictures!! My iPhone takes great pictures ...when you're not chasing a puppy around.






And .....the last picture is blurry ...but I had to share it ....her tongue is sticking out :)


I'll share a little secret ....all these pictures were taken with me holding her attention with Blueberries.....she LOVES them (me too). I give her around 8 to 10 a day.

I like her better with the longer hair ....but it's important that she get used to being groomed.

She was so exhausted afterwards that she and I took a nap.....when I woke up she was asleep on Dave's pillow ....don't tell him :)

See ya!

Miss Bella

Here's the latest picture I took of Miss Bella ....she was 17 weeks on Wednesday and weighs 9.12



What's funny is I bought this crate to take her back and forth to the vet and ....she's outgrown it :) She should be anywhere from 7 to 11 pounds ....I'm thinking maybe more.

Busy day ahead ....making progress on my craft room and I have a live stream at noon.

Have a good day!

P.S. forgive me for all my typos ....90% of my posts are done on my iPhone.

This was Bella's first breakfast at her new home.

In this picture she kinda looks like Oscar the grouch.....she's actually very sweet!!
