Lily

I managed to get a picture of Lily in her snuggie. She sat nicely for approximately 3 seconds and then proceeded to rip it off with her teeth! At least the picture is cute :)

And a picture of her after our 3 hour hike yesterday. That's a long time for those little legs to carry her! But she is such a trooper. She runs through the streams now with no problem, and she was out in front of me even at the end!

Happy Busy Monday!!

Stephanie Potter Photography

On Nov. 7th Karim and I had the pleasure of having our pictures taken by Stephanie Potter (actually now Mrs. Corwin). The pictures are so adorable. Here are my favorites :)

To celebrate joining the Dachshund Team on Etsy, here are a few of my favorite dachshund related items (from members of the team too!)

This get well card

This magnet

This reindeer hat costume

Peppermint Mocha Lip Balm

This original painting

And this stocking

I was warned that having a dachshund means becoming obsessed with them. I wouldn't call it an obsession though. And if I don't call it that then it must not be :)

My Favorite Story

As an old man walked the beach at dawn, he noticed a young man ahead of him picking up starfish and flinging them into the sea. Finally catching up with the youth, he asked him why he was doing this.

The answer was that the stranded starfish would die if left until the morning sun.

"But the beach goes on for miles and miles and there are millions of starfish," countered the other. "How can your effort make any difference?"

The young man looked at the starfish in his hand and then threw it to safety in the waves. "It makes a difference to this one," he said.

Nordstrom Semi-Annual Sale

Darn it Nordstrom!! Stop having sales that tempt me! I want this vintage inspired ring so bad!!

Thank god tomorrow is Friday!

Karim and I are getting pictures taken together this weekend so I'm so excited! I swear they won't be posed Olan Mills style. We met with the photographer, Stephanie Potter, and now I'm looking forward to getting them done even more. They are going to be really fun! I'll share them as soon as I get them back! Yay :)

Then after the pictures Saturday we're going to a bonfire. I think bringing supplies for vegan s'mores might be in order. Can you tell I can't wait for the weekend?!!

I hope everyone has a good one!
