Stroll on Sadieday

It's Sadieday and since it's also Memorial Day weekend, today's stroll will be down memory lane. I haven't always been the only dog in our household, I used to have a big sisfur named KC. Mommy and daddy adopted KC in 1993 as a 2 month old puppy so she was 7 years old when I joined the family in 2001.

It didn't take long for me to be bigger than her though.

KC liked the beach and ran all around with me but she never got in the water. She also loved to chase seagulls and when she got older she lost her hearing so one time she chased the seagulls and kept on going down the beach following the seagulls because she couldn't hear Daddy calling for her. He had to run way down the beach to get her. Ha roo roo!

Even though she was a black chow mix, her hair turned red at the ends.

KC was stubborn but she was very friendly and loved everybody she met and she was a good big sisfur. She crossed the bridge on August 29, 2007 at age 14. We all still miss her very much.

Thank you for taking a stroll down memory lane with me! I hope you enjoyed meeting my big sisfur KC. Be sure to remember your loved ones this weekend!

Hope you have a wonderful Sadieday!

EtsyBlogger of the Month - Memories For Life SB

I was so excited to see that Edi from Memories For Life Scrapbooks was chosen to be the EtsyBlogger of the month! Why? Because I had just finished putting photos in a beautiful Custom Word Album that she made for me and couldn't wait to share!

I had purchased a word album from Edi as a gift for my husband to put in photos of our first dog together (and his first dog ever!). Midnight was a black chow mix and had a red collar so I just asked her to use the colors red and black and this is what she made!

She customized it further by putting in her name, her birthday and the day she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We lost Mitty too soon to tongue cancer.

Edi put cute little embellishments in it such as quotes...

and stickers. There's room for 16 photos in this album and although it was hard going through all of Midnight's pictures, it's wonderful having them in such a cute album that we can enjoy and see her smiling face! And remember the funny things she did like sit in the planter at the edge of the deck.

She loved to travel so I had to include a photo of her and her daddy at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. We both love the album, thank you so much Edi! Be sure to check out her shop and her blog for more of her great work! She certainly helps you create Memories for Life!
