Shattered Glass

These past few days have been hectic for us. Our dog has a herniated disc so we are trying to take care of that which is not easy. Then last night all of a sudden there was a big crash in the bathroom. We took a look at the bathroom glass door just shattered all over. Thanks goodness no was was taking a shower or in there at the time. It sure was a mess. Glass all over the bathroom floor in the tub. I wish I took pictures before we cleaned it up. But forgot. In a hurray to get it up off the floor. Not sure what caused this to happen. The glass door we had for 15 years.

1000 Words

The title 1000 words was an article in our local paper called the Ames Tribune. It was about my son's Boy scout camp at Mitagwa. He came and told me this time he was in the paper online. Here is a couple of shots they took of him. I really like the first one of them saluting the flag. He is the middle one and the other two are his troop members. Oh, when I look at this I can't believe how he is grown up.

This will go on sale tomorrow in my Etsy shop. I'm doing a sneak preview here. It is a love necklace/pendant all hand cut by me. I think it is a fun piece and can be worn with other chains.

My dog and his new bling

I was so excited when I open this package up Saturday. It is from a shop on Etsy called DogGoneNice Now my dog looks great in his new collar with his name on it. I did not know that you can form the collar around him so I did not do this in the pictures so excited to put the collar on him and started shooting. This collar is very professionally made with high quality leather. I know this will be my dogs last collar on him. I would highly recommend DogGoneNice.

4th of July parade

We went to our local 4th of July parade because our son was in it and here is him in the center back of picture getting ready to CRASH the cymbals. He just started drum line this year and will be in the High school band. The weather was so great for the 4th. Hope everyone enjoyed your time on the 4th. Happy belated birthday America!
