Cocoa

Cocoa, our little Australian Shepherd puppy, turned four today! Even though I'm sure she really doesn't know the difference between today and any other day, me and my brother decided to take her to the beach. We ran and splashed with her and she rolled in the sand. And when she came home she STILL wanted to play!


This is what happened when she one day decided to eat the buttons off my sock monkey slippers...


Here's Cocoa when she was a baby. I believe at this picture we got her yesterday...


Here is Cocoa and me now...

And here is Gigi and Cocoa!

Butterflies and Bows

Today, me and Gigi decided to take some photos of some of our most recent D.I.Y's. I had an old, vintage chair at my writing desk that was looking pretty shabby so we sanded, spray painted, and hand painted it with pink polka dots to freshen it up. We also made a jewelry holder out of a clothes hanger for all of our earrings and broaches. A few months back I made a crazy hat with all of my favorite things...it's VERY hard (but just as fun) to wear!
The wind was blowing so hard that the purple butterfly decided to fly away (which would be why I'm laughing!)
