Embrodery, Donations, and Shopping on Saturday

Well after much procrastination momma finally got her self off of Facebook and got into the sewing room and I got in my bed to watch her work.

She was designing a doggy bag to donate as a prize for the Barktoberfest at the Marshall County Humane Society. She flipped through her book of designs and finally found one she thought was perfect.

While the embroidery machine was doing its thing I helped momma pick out the designs for our Howl-o-ween bags.

Here is what the final draft of the front of my bag will look like. Please excuse my mommas poor drawing...She a sewer not an artist. BOL

Here is the finished Doggy Bag.

We filled it with goodies too. Whoever wins this at Barktoberfest will be one lucky pup!

Momma posted on Facebook one day about he Humane Society needing donations and Dr. Flanary was generous enough to donate 6 gift certificates!

Do we have the best vet or what?

After picking up the gift certificates from Dr. Flanary we headed out to the Humane Society to turn in all of our donations. Look at the sign they have out front!

We headed inside with our donations and the staff was super happy to get them. They told us that if we were ready we could preregister for the contests at the Barktoberfest. So now we are all ready to PAWTY!

Meeting room filled with lots of Barktoberfest items!

Jackson the HS mascot kitty.

The new 2011 calendars

Then we came to the room with the puppy dogs in it and momma passed us off to grandma and went inside.

She saw tiny sweet doggies...

...and cute matching doggies.

Then she got to meet Layla and her litter of pups. She has been following their progress on FB ever since Layla was brought in heavily pregnant to the HS by some good Samaritans. Layla is a great dog and a great momma!

Then momma came across this little girl. She was just sitting in the back of her kennel very scared. Momma saw the "Not for Adoption" sign on her kennel door and asked one of the staff what her story was. This little girl is one of two Yorkies the HS took in from a Hording situation in TN. Both dogs were adopted quickly but this girls family backed out and that is when one of the staff knew it was ment to be for her to adopt her. She was going home today. Momma knew this little girl was special from the moment she laid eyes on her and if she hadn't already been adopted we would have had a new sister for sure. Her name is Cocoa.

Momma was back in the doggy kennels for like 836565819 hours and we worried she would never come out.

After we left the HS grandma was needing to pick up some crafty things to decorate her desk at work for Howl-o-ween so we stopped by Hobby Lobby.

You will never believe what we saw in the parking lot.

Thats right its a watermelon. Strange huh?!?!?
