Happy Birthday at the Bridge to our Sisfur Sadie!

Today, December 15th, would have been our sisfur Sadie's 14th birthday.  Even though she went to the bridge 2 1/2 years ago, we still miss her very much especially during the holidays.  She loved this time of year because she got to look at the pretty Christmas lights while on her neighborhood strolls...

And she loved presents...

What she loved most was having a warm, loving furever home to celebrate the holidays in...

So, in her honor, we're donating 50% of the proceeds of our BeadedTail shop for the entire month of December as well as $1 per comment on this post to Senior Dog Rescue of Oregon.  We know she'd be happy we're helping the dogs waiting for their loving furever homes this holiday season.  

We bet she's smiling up at the Bridge today and we hope you help spread those smiles around in your neck of the woods.  

Happy Birthday sweet Sadie!  We miss you!

2,000 Posts and a Commenthon on Tortie Tuesday!

It's Tortie Tuesday and it's also our 2,000th post!  That's certainly cause for celebration!  We've come a long way from when Mommy started this blog back on January 5, 2008 to talk about her BeadTail shop.  Yeah, that snoozefest got zero to two comments so she didn't do much with the blog until April when she she posted this story and photo about my little sisfur Angel and got a whooping 5 comments...

She continued to post about her shop and even some travel related posts about our area but she eventually figured out we were much better at doing posts than she is so we took over along with our angel sisfur Sadie.  Sadie even helped by modeling her jewelry like this purple necklace...

Of course I'm the supermodel of the family so I modeled lots of things like this pouch...

And this ornament...

But, even supermodels get bored...

We are happy yet amazed that we still have things to say although some days are harder than others.  We are very thankful to have such wonderful friends that visit from all over the world too!  To show our appreciation we're going to have a commenthon with $1 for every comment through midnight PDT tonight being donated to Senior Dog Rescue in our sisfur Sadie's honor.  

Thanks to everybody who visits and keeps us going!  We are more grateful than we can say!  We hope we give you a smile and we hope you spread those smiles around!  

Happy Tortie Tuesday!

Happy Birthday Sadie!

Today is my 11th Birthday! Can you believe I used to be this little?
Of course I've always been cute even when I was a teenager...
Enough reminiscing, bring on the birthday treats!
Since I have such a loving home and wonderful furiends around the world, I want to spread the love by donating $1 to Senior Dog Rescue of Oregon for every comment left today.

Thanks for stopping by and celebrating my birthday with me!
Sadie

We Believe in Fairies!

Be on the look out because you never know when a Fairy Hobmother will visit you!
Who is the Fairy Hobmother you ask? Well, she (and sometimes he) is from Appliances Online and flies around the blogosphere granting wishes to people who comment on posts like this one. Last Thursday we commented on our friend Ann and Duke's blog and we were happily surprised to discover an email from the Fairy Hobmother (aka Jennifer) that our wish was granted!

We wished for a donation to Senior Dog Rescue of Oregon because I am a senior dog and Mommy always feels so bad that other senior dogs don't have a loving furever home like I do. She wishes she could give all dogs (and kitties) a furever home but since she can't, this organization does wonderful things in our community helping senior (and not so senior) dogs find their furever home. That's why we were so happy to have our wish granted! The Fairy Hobmother donated $40 to this worthy organization! Yay!

What do you wish for? Just tell us in your comment and you might be visited by the Fairy Hobmother too!

Hope all your wishes come true!
Sadie
