New Pics of Reese

Matt took these photos with the tagline: after a long day chasing the elusive rope cow, every good dog deserves a nap.

This is Reese and his ever-favorite rawhide bone.

He is slowly settling in but still trying to determine if we are for real and if we are going to leave him somewhere....... he's a great guy though with lots of puppy energy and loves (and licks) everyone he meets!

Reese

For those of you who don't know - we've been going through the process of adopting a dog from a rescue league in our area. We met this guy in Maine - where he was staying with his foster family - and totally fell in love with him! Matt will tell you that I've been going a bit happy-crazy to get the house ready to bring this guy home. I can't help it! I'm just so excited :-)


These are old pictures of Nero (whose new name will be Reese) . His coloring has changed to all black except for his paws and the two brown dots on his eyebrows have stayed. Even the brown has darkened. He has also gained some good muscle weight and has widened through his head, nose and chest.

I didn't even think to take photos when we met him - I should have though. There was this great moment when he sat on Matt's boot and looked straight up at him. Or when he decided I was ok and put his head on my knee and hung out for a while.

We are bringing him home this weekend :-) and hope to get him settled in a bit before visitors, but then we'd LOVE to see you!!! We know you'll love him like we do!

School House Studio Open House - RI

HI All!

For those of you in RI or near RI this weekend, there is an Open House event at Lorraine Mill. I highly encourage you to stop by and visit!

School House Studios
The Weave Shed at Lorraine Mill
558 Mineral Spring Ave
Pawtucket, RI

School House Studios is a sewing school where students age 4 to 94 can come and learn something new or just enjoy classes together! One of my personal favs is the Grandparents class where one grandparent and a grandchild come and build projects together - like the popular teddy bear and coordinating blanket!

Older students have been known to build Halloween props and costumes, prom dresses, gifts for family and friends as well as those working on home dec, quilts and embroidery. Please note that you can choose to come and create your own project or have them commissioned by the talented Mr & Mrs Love (founders & teachers of the Studio).

Dream it. Draw it. Make it.

Hope to see you there!
