FETCH!

  

I just stepped into this century and got an iPHONE!!!  Whoo hoo! This is big news because I have never had a smart phone only a "purty smart" phone with many limitations.  One of those limitations was the ability to take decent phone photos.  The second day of being an official iPhone user, I tried out my camera on my favorite little redheaded subject. I was very impressed with the quality of the pictures especially the action shots of Sophie running.  I love me new phone! 

 

 Have a wonderful day! :)



Dachshund Training Continues

In a previous post, I told you that the weenie and I have been participating in beginners training at PetSmart.  Last week, we worked on "Leave It" given some distractions and "Paw" or Shake.  Each week we are supposed to go home and practice some of the things we learned.  We are supposed to do our homework twice a week, but Sophie is extremely motivated by food (Pup-Peroni) so we can do one longer session. 

Here is a clip of part of our training session.

Sorry for the poor quality and... the sound of my voice.

Tomorrow night we are supposed to learn 2 tricks of my choosing and "STAY".  I haven't decided what I want to do yet so any suggestions are welcomed.  I will post a video when she has mastered the next commands!  (Hopefully soon).

Have a Happy Day!

UPDATE:  This week I have started my first big girl job as a Registered and Licensed Occupational Therapist.  Whoo Hoo!

I'm Getting Married?

After being engaged for almost 2 months and visits to several venues, by golly I think I'm actually going to get married!  The place is beautiful downtown Wilmington, where I lived for a brief time.  I love everything about this town and am sad that I had to leave. 

The wedding will be in September of THIS year which gives me a little anxiety, but I know we can make it happen.  The purple star in the map to the left represents where Chris and I live in Greenville and the blue star represents my family.  Ofcourse, the red heart is Wilmington!  I see a perfect little triangle!  I am super excited to finally be moving forward and making this thing happen.  Please stay tuned for more updates!  I'll leave with you some pictures my mom took in Wrightsville Beach as we left Wilmington last weekend.

Have a Happy Day!
