= Chihuahua viewing in Zone 5

Just too cute! 

After a lot of research Liv managed to find a new born Chihuahua girl. The owners were located in Zone 5 so on a Thursday afternoon we set out to have a viewing.

We were a little worried at first as neither of us really travel out of Zone 2 so Zone 5 seemed a bit far and we didn't know what to expect. The owners were really nice and they were actually quite a few dogs running around as they were Chihuahua breeders.

I could not believe how tiny and delicate she was!

Liv absolutely adored her as you can see.

She was a short coat but could grow to a medium one.

She will probably be a light brown but the mum in the last photo is actually quite ginger. 

There was also an 8 week old puppy that was running around trying to get our attention.

Her was just adorable as her strolled up happily to give us a the leaf he had in his mouth.

Sadly we are not going to get her.

She was a little out of our budget at the moment so we decided its best to wait unitl Spring next year to get a dog. In that time we are going to get everything prepared.

Liv also bought me a book so that I can read up on everything one needs to know about Chihuahuas!

= A new dog bed!




As you might have guessed, we have decided to get a dog!!!
We dont know exactly when but in preparation for the momentous occasion we spent the day making our own dog bed.

I'm actually really happy Liv has the skills and talent to do these things because the're not cheap.
In addition, can you believe that she had spare wadded fabric that she got from work just lying around the house. The white pillow fabric was also a spare piece from work but on a different project, and they match perfectly!

I think it turned out pretty damn good.
I guess some things are just meant to be :)

=coffee, champagne & cheesecake : happy sunday housewarming

 

 

Liv learned to to tie a cherry stem knot in her mouth, got addicted to strawberry & cream-filled meringues and ate way too much cheesecake! Dave learned how to swing dance and finally opened the bottles of real champagne that he designed months ago. Thanks so much to everyone for coming and special thanks to Eeva for teaching us special tricks! I had a blast!
I wish we could start a Sunday club and do this every week!
