We do have both Dad, Mom and one son from a prior litter on premise. They average right around 20-25 lbs with many of the pups from her prior litters weighing the same or less. Lira is a stunning Red with amazing caramel colored eyes. Dad is AKC registered as Seal however his color tends toward a Red as well. He has two beautiful bright blue eyes. Both parents are JHC clear. The puppies are looking like one red with two possible chocolates. As they grow we'll see more changes and coloring to their fur to better be able to clarify.</div>

It's my favorite time of the year and that means my house is right now head to toe <b><span style="font-size: large;">Halloween</span></b>. I love when people stop by who have no idea how I decorate and are in for a huge surprise.<br />
<br />
Here's some of the ways I decorate and try to not make things too expensive but yet creepy and fun!<br />
<br />
For our family I work with some existing items (like sweet puppies there on the right!lol) and some of our regular decorations. One thing I do is change out all the photos we have out into creepy ones. I've found ones on the internet and this year purchased a large group of <b><span style="color: #b45f06;">vintage photos</span></b> at a fair. Perfect way to decorate!! Not only are they the right look it's nice to frame those...after all they are someone's loved ones. <br />

We have an abundance of pine cones in our yard so this year I gathered up a bunch and spray painted them black and silver. Then I used my silver bowls, that yes I let tarnish) and pile those in. I add some snakes and roaches to the bowls for a bit of creepy factor. </div>

This year we made a new item for our fireplace.. we decided to retire our family saw and hang it in the place of honor on our fireplace. What is really is ...an old saw that I dripped melted red crayon all over!lol And a gross old picture I found at Goodwill for $2. I sprayed the picture with Tattered Angels Glimmer Sprays and then dripped the crayon on it as well. We super glued the saw to the frame and hung with fishing line!! </div>

Those who know me are aware I'm a complete and total nut for Halloween! You could say <b><span style="font-size: large;">Halloween</span></b> is my Christmas as we go all out! (well we do for Christmas too..hmm...)<br />
<br />
We decorate not only the outside and transform it into a full sized cemetery but the inside main and lower levels into one spooky home. It takes me about 2 weeks(weekends and here and there through the week) to get the inside completely done with a good full day to do the outside. <br />
<br />

Here's a peek to get you inspired to start your Halloween decor...<br />

I like to make little well...big vignettes. I build on a piece of furniture with items of various heights and widths. Last year I added the large owl statue (love it..looks like Hedwig from Harry Potter!) Once I knew that was the centerpiece I worked around it with black candles, spiders, snakes, glass jars filled with creepy skulls and bugs and then tucked some cemetery pictures around it. One thing I do know..I use a ton of <b>spider webs</b>..along with <b><span style="color: #e69138;">spanish moss for that creepy factor!</span></b></div>

This year we're changing our plans up a bit. We decided to take a break from hosting Easter given how crazy this year has been for us with Scott's heart attack. I will say I know I will miss it..it's my second favorite holiday after Halloween. I mean how can you be nicknamed Bunny and not love Easter!<br />
<br />
Each year Haley and I usually make some kind of fun treat from handmade candies, to cupcakes to cookies..this year...we're going to pass and enjoy some amazing <b>Jilly's cupcakes</b> instead. The hardest part will be deciding which ones we want as they're amazing!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/07/24/article-2376868-1AF988E3000005DC-641_634x909.jpg" height="320" width="223" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Funny that a <b>Bridget Jones book</b> would spur my desire to get back to blogging. Not that I ever took a blog break mind you. I blog for a living for my job and thus my own blog took. I felt like I was online enough. Blogging enough..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I realized that I missed being here...sharing, posting, writing without it being about work related topics..so I'm back.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kind of like Bridget who I adore!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just finished the newest book.. <b><i>Bridget Jones Mad about the Boy</i></b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #76a5af;"><b>BOOK SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had heard rumors about Helen Fielding (the talented author) having Mark Darcy die in the book. And I'll admit..I wasn't too thrilled to hear this. After all..I live and breathe for Jane Austen, Pride & Prejudice and yes of course.. Mr. Darcy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I read all the books written by authors carrying on in place of Jane..and their idea of what happens after we close the books..and our characters lives move on. I've watched the movies, BBC, (yes I even own two copies of Pride & Prejudice) Austenland..you name it..I'll watch it in the hopes of feeling like I did the very first time I watched <b>Pride & Prejudice</b>. Magical..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wondered would I even like this new book...knowing something happened to Mark?? How would Bridget live without her man? Needless to say..she does live on..albeit it difficult for some time and years..but what made me want to write today was how beautifully the story ended. And how much it made me cry!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes Bridget is at the weight she wants and Twitter followers aplenty...but in the end despite losing her beloved Mr. Darcy...she finds herself in love with a new man... Scott.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The book and the ending really hit home for me...after all I almost lost my "Mr. Darcy" to a major heart attack this past January. And yes..the idea of going on without him is and was completely unimaginable to me. When I read about Bridget's new love, who she felt in the end her Mr. Darcy would approve of for she and her children, was named Scott..I forgave Helen Fielding for the pain and suffering she put Bridget through and thanked her for naming her new love...my love's name..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm thankful every day I still have my Mr. Darcy... Scott! And I'm thankful my favorite Bridget (who I fancy myself a bit like too) has her Scott as well!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

After almost a one year hiatus, I'm finally back scrapbooking again and it feels great! I still crafted over the year..just no layouts. I felt a pull now and then but too much work seemed to pull me away. Lately I cannot wait to work on my pages and that tells me that the timing was right!</div>

<div>
Life has been incredibly busy for me since starting my new job with Therm O Web!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of the perks is that I just got back from attending the Houston Quilt Market. I'll admit I have not been there before but I look forward to going back!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you've never been...here are some photos I took during the show and this is only a small fraction of all there is to see there.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Therm O Web had a booth there. My talented teammates manned the booth while I walked the show meeting lots of new partners in the industry.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here's a peek into this incredible show... </div>
<div>

<br />
Hope you'll also give a like to Therm O Web on Facebook and Twitter if you already do not! I'm manning their Social Media along with the Designers and future Education programs for Consumers and I have to say I am very very excited! <br />
<br />
And we had another amazing time on Halloween! I decked the inside of the house out like never before and we tackled the outside. Pictures soon to come but here is Haley looking mighty creepy before she and her friends haunted the cemetery!<br />

<br />
Between work, kids, work, puppies and some more work it seems I'm always in motion. Always thinking, planning, cleaning and just doing something.<br />
<br />
Since I've been neglecting my personal blog because of focusing on work blog, I thought it was time to bring you up to speed.<br />
<br />
First...our beautiful Boston Terrier, Lira, had an amazing litter of 5 puppies on Parker's birthday. Talk about a way to celebrate! They just turned 4 weeks old yesterday and are doing amazing.<br />

<br />
All this week on the <a href="http://www.gluearts.blogspot.com/">GlueArts blog</a> the Designers and myself are sharing projects using the beautiful and sweet new line from Dear Lizzy called Neapolitan.<br />
<br />
For me..it's even more special as I was fortunate to get to meet "Lizzy" Elizabeth Kartchner at the Winter CHA show. She is undoubtably as sweet as her collection is.<br />
<br />
Since I've been itching to really get back into my craft....back into my photos, layouts, using my supplies...endless supplies...I decided to make some layouts.<br />
<br />
The only trouble I encountered with the collection...is how to chose and what to use because it's adorable and<i><span style="color: #e06666;"> I tend to want to hoard versus use when I like something as much as this!lol</span></i><br />

<i><span style="color: magenta;">Hi and welcome to the GlueArts and Want2Scrap Spring into Summer Blog Hop!</span></i><br />
<br />
I'm tickled to be apart of the hop!<br />
<br />
As many of you may know I tend to work behind the scenes at <b><span style="color: #6aa84f;">GlueArts</span></b> coordinating their Social Media, blog and design team. And while I have always been crafting however I did take time off from my scrapbooking and such.<br />
<br />
I've felt such a great push to get back into things and this fun album from Want2Scrap was a fun way to kick things off! When I saw their adorable megaphone chipboard album, I knew just what I wanted to do with it. Turn it into a special keepsake that I am giving to my daughter next month for her birthday. It's just enough for a fun reminder for her of highlights from the hockey cheer season. From their homecoming parade, to their State Competition, (that they won) to their final cheer banquet of the season.<br />

<b><i>Instructions & Tips:</i></b><br />
<br />
1) When making an album such as this...I find it works best to have your supplies gathered before starting. I wanted a cohesive look throughout staying with the same colors, similar embellishments and papers. I set about first...printing my photos. Given the smaller size of the album I knew smaller photos would be the best way to go. I printed photos in 4 by 6, 3 by 5 and wallet size.<br />
<br />
2) Once I had my photos I then set about gathering everything I needed. Papers, diecuts, stickers, alphabet stickers, ink, punches, felt...all items that I thought would work well, matching the color scheme and also that I had enough of for several pages if I wanted it to carry over. <br />
<br />
3) I then set about tracing the papers out and cutting them to fit the unique album shape. I adhered all the papers to the album using the Glue Glider PRO+ Perma Tac cartridge. Then I inked and went to town adding my photos, punched border strips, ribbons, stickers, flowers, buttons...you name it..I probably added it.<br />
<br />
4) To finish I tucked a cute "roll call" card into the final photo. My daughter can add all her friends names and such to it for memory sake and tuck it behind the last photo. Last for a fun idea I sewed glittery pom poms that I picked up at Hobby Lobby onto the ends of the ribbon. I then tied them onto the rings and now it makes a perfect finishing touch for a spunky cheerleader album!<br />
<br />
5) This entire album is kid friendly too! Just pick up some items and photos and hand off to your cutie! I bet they would enjoy making their own too!<br />
<br />

</div><b><i><span style="color: #e06666;">Spring Totes</span></i></b> (I love these as they're perfect to use for the egg hunt...and then all the days after!)<br />
<br />
Supplies:<br />
GlueArts Adhesive Squares (www.gluearts.com)<br />
Canvas Totes (Hobby Lobby)<br />
Martha Stewart Paints from Plaid<br />
Martha Stewart Templates and Burshes<br />
Beads<br />
Wood Felt<br />
Sizzix die cut machine and various flower dies (www.sizzix.com)<br />
Handbegh Felts Felted Wool Ball <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">(handbehgfelts.com)</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Epiphany Crafts Felt Flower (www.epiphanycrafts.com)</span></span><br />
Maya Road Tulle Ribbon<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Large Pink Flower: <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">1) Use the GlueArts Adhesive Squares to adhere the beads forming the stem to the bag. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">2) Next paint on leaves and grass using the Martha Stewart All Purpose Paints and brushes. I outlined the leaves by hand-stitching. This step can be omitted for kids. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">3) Use the Sizzix Big Shot to cut the felt flowers from a variety of colors of felt. (Wool felt is easier to work with if you can find that. You can hand cut the shape as well) Apply Glue Arts Fabric Bond to the backside of your felt. Iron onto the canvas bag to heat the adhesive and bond onto the bag. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Tip: to make this child friendly…use the Extreme Adhesive Squares in the full size and apply the squares to the backside of the felt and then adhere to the bag. The Extreme Squares are designed to adhere to fabric, canvas and more! <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">4) The bottom flowers are hand-painted on the tips and then felt flowers layered over the top with a felt ball to finish it off and give dimension. Each flower was adhered using several Adhesive Squares. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Tip: These can also be sewn with a sewing machine or hand-stitched as well. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">5) Adhere butterfly bead with Extreme Adhesive Squares. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">6) Tie a ribbon around the handle. Use the Micro Extreme Adhesive Squares to hold the ribbon tails in place on the bag.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Tip: If you do not have access to a diecut machine hand cut your shapes. Also this bag would be fun to personalize with a child’s name, Grandparents, special teacher! And best…this bag took just minutes to make and will be a favorite for years to come.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;"><br />

Handcut or diecut your flower shapes. I used sizes ranging from 3 3/4 inches to 4 3/4 inches. Kids can choose to use papers and punches instead of felt and dies.</div><div style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; line-height: 18px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Step 3</strong> • Build the flowers. I used three to four flowers in various sizes. I simply layered the flowers, changing them around until I liked the color combinations. Once you settle on how you like them, adhere them together using GlueArts Extreme adhesive squares.<br />

Consider adding a banner that says "welcome spring" or an initial for your last name. I added a beautiful ribbon.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLdDYI4W5hHK1rqZ6jOQpIhIMogZCNp3U-1BlO-ZMKms1Og7DekXRNReabnSk7EP0VnXNr958ENgRQvnJjajzAa_sUS79Vz5-LrrIpzjnSccOc8OMBZA5RJBCJleQJhwCZ5dv0ew/s1600/Spring-Wreath.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLdDYI4W5hHK1rqZ6jOQpIhIMogZCNp3U-1BlO-ZMKms1Og7DekXRNReabnSk7EP0VnXNr958ENgRQvnJjajzAa_sUS79Vz5-LrrIpzjnSccOc8OMBZA5RJBCJleQJhwCZ5dv0ew/s320/Spring-Wreath.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: tahoma, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">1) Select the papers or felt colors you would to use for the letters. Hand cut or use a diecut machine, such as the Cricut Expression 2, to cut the letters. These letters were cut between 5 and 7 inches in size.

</div><div class="MsoNormal">2) Next adhere the letters using the Glue Glider Pro to the background of the shadowbox. Cut out pieces of U Cut It Foam and adhere to the backside of the inked chipboard ornaments. Attach the end of the twine to the foam before adhering to back of frame. Be sure to select various ornaments or embellishments for the depending on the word you chose. Remember embellishments work best in odd numbers.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">3) Select your colors of HandBEGH (<a href="http://www.handbeghfelts.com/">www.handbeghfelts.com</a>) felted balls and place those randomly into the bottom of the shadowbox.

</div><div class="MsoNormal">1) Wrap burlap around cone tree. Trim off any extra fabric. Hot glue onto paper mache base...tuck bottom fabric into base of cone and secure with hot glue.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">2) Next using HandBEHG felted balls in 1cm and 1.5 cm... string onto baker's twine. String them in various sizes and colors (or in specific colors as HandBEHG felts offers just about every color of the rainbow!!)</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">3) Next wrap baker's twine around tree (without balls) for added color. Then add strung garland around tree. Secure the ends with a touch of hot glue. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Consider a trio of trees as everything looks best in groups of 3! Make different sizes...cover an entire tree with the HandBEGH felt balls...all one color or multiple colors...have fun!!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

You can mix and match brands however to try to stay within the same color families for the best look. Cut strips of paper approximately 1 1/2 inches wide by 12 inches long. Use a pencil or dowel to help roll the papers.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15pt; text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Begin rolling the papers and secure with a strip of either GlueArts Perma Tac adhesive or use Extreme Adhesive Squares.

Then lay out the rolled papers and decide which print and solids you like in which order. Once you have laid them out as you like…it’s time to start working on the canvas. </span></span></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 15pt; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

Once you’ve laid them out…it’s time to trim the papers making each one just a bit shorter as you work your way to the tip top of the tree. Keep in mind, you can use some of the rolled pieces you’ve cut off for the top pieces of the tree. Or…hold onto your scraps and make a small tree shaped ornament later!<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

Apply a square or two to the backside of the papers and press down onto the canvas working your way to the top of the tree.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

Use the GlueArts U Cut It Foam to add dimension and depth to the embellishments so they lift off the tree just a bit. Have fun with this step…this is where it really comes together.</span></span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 15pt; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KYcU0u6zXaMo9OR_MMpTFza5FZzzoJy4yCMW5N4cUumOf6-IEbawFKt8urO1u8cWLkOdmn_YK4RY-6co6h83S8C1SUmkh7dgx1Q5SO9VfRfzHoid35hMfMhZueNTZQsTTRdZ3g/s1600/Rolled-Tree-Top.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KYcU0u6zXaMo9OR_MMpTFza5FZzzoJy4yCMW5N4cUumOf6-IEbawFKt8urO1u8cWLkOdmn_YK4RY-6co6h83S8C1SUmkh7dgx1Q5SO9VfRfzHoid35hMfMhZueNTZQsTTRdZ3g/s320/Rolled-Tree-Top.jpg" width="245" /></a></span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 15pt; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

<br />
Leaves me with little time and interest to post on my blog. Which makes me just a bit sad as I love blogging and chatting...so I need to find a way to make it all work somehow!!<br />
