Number 55 is Silver Parrot! KJ, I think your bead porn stash is about to increase nicely in size. :)


On another note, this is the new boy we are adopting within the next week! Isn't he handsome? He's a two year old Great Pyrenees that I found through a rescue for these gentle giants.

Right now, he is getting over a case of kennel cough and is scheduled to get neutered on Thursday. I'll be bringing our Maggie dog up to the vet's office on Friday for a controlled introduction between the two dogs and hope to bring him home on Saturday. I am so excited!!!!

We are still throwing around names, but have narrowed down the possibilities to Beau, Jack(son), Isaac, Samson, Simon and Wilson.

Congrats to KJ. I'm pretty sure she'll be in touch given her bead addiction ;-). The new boy looks so handsome. Great Pyraneese are wonderful dogs and 2 is old enough to be over some of the puppy sillies. I'm sure you'll have fun with him.

OMG! I can't believe it! I NEVER win anything! Seriously, NEVER! This is SO cool! Thank you, Kelley!

Oh, and I vote for Beau. It means "beautiful" in French and he sure is that! Plus, he just LOOKS like a Beau.
