Bunny Photo Contest

We have entered Stormie's photo in the 1-800-flowers' website The New Easter Bunny contest. I'm not sure that we will win as there are a couple entries that already have over 1,000 votes. It would be fun, as I would love some of the prizes. But, either way, it has been fun to see the comments that people have on how cute our little Stormie is. She was such a little trooper in wearing

You should have seen the photos we tried with Breezy. She just sat there, wearing the ears and giving me the death stare. She wouldn't move a muscle.

Shimmer just flopped right down and looked humiliated.

Easter Basket Roundup

Easter is coming very quickly. When my kids were younger, I loved spending so much time finding all kinds of treasures to put in their Easter baskets. Now that they are all grown, I get to turn my attention to the girls and Cooper.

You can tell from last year's photo that they had a pretty good haul. I was sort of pressed for time last year and didn't devote much time to shopping, so they all got a combined basket.

This year I have done much better! I have already purchased individual baskets for each of them and have started to gather some of the greatest items ever! I can hardly wait to share some of them with you, especially some special collars from my friend Suzanne at Crazy for Collars.

I found these adorable little containers at The Dollar Tree yesterday. They will be perfect for carrying their treats in their travel bag, etc.

The pile of stuff for the baskets is growing. Can you hear Peter Cottontail coming down the bunny trail yet...???

Chihuahua Mama

My family and friends have referred to me as the Chihuahua Mama for quite a while now. I prefer that title much better than the Crazy Chihuahua Lady. Regretfully, I have been called that one also.

I guess I do look that part at times when I am holding all three girls. I haven't quite got enough room to hold the girls and Cooper. My arms just aren't big enough to hold them comfortably.

So, it seemed appropriate that I should get this vinyl decal for the french door that leads into my studio:

I will always be proud to be known as the Chihuahua Mama. My little four-footed kids are the love of my life.
