ART

When I taught elementary school art, we would learn about a new artist every month. I found it very important that kids grow up knowing about famous artists and famous pieces of work- and more importantly to be inspired by all the above. In the end, I learned a good deal as well- and was always entertained by what those little minds would come up with. Current inspiration: Gustav Klimt's Tree of Life.

WoOf WeDnEsDaY

I'm happy to see my last post, was also a WoOf WeDnEsDaY- because sweet Murphy has been adopted! Not by myself, but I hope she is now in a happy, loving home, that will snuggle her as much as I would have!! My next featured pup that caught my eye this week is Homer:

My name is Homer and I am a young male pointer mix. I am between 8 months and one year old. I am the perfect size dog at 47lbs. I have a beautiful short coat and a big brown patch over one half of my head. I am very active and my favorite thing to do is chase lizards in the yard. I am crate trained and I love to cuddle. I need a home that will play with me and take me for long walks and to the dog park. I love to hunt and to run. I don't jump up on humans even though I am so young and I am completely housebroken. As long as i have bones and toys, I won't chew on your human belongings. Can I come out and play with you? Homer is new to rescue and fostered in Orlando. For more information please contact Melissa at

I think Spencer was channeling Homer earlier this week, when mysteriously she appeared in the kitchen like this...

And lastly in honor of how much I love dogs, and to be the crazy dog lady- I found a great BLOG off my Sissy's page-

This girl is AWESOME! Not only is she a total golden retriever lover, but shes the definition of a natural beauty- you might

just recognize her :)
