Archie's Brain is Growing Smarter :)

Happy Monday everyone!

It is me...

Archie!

My momma smiles and tells me everyday how expressive my little pug face is.

She says she can see what I am thinking before I even jump up to do it!

I think my little bulbus head is growing and getting smarter everyday!

Here I am in puppy kindergarten listening to the teacher.

We are learning all about focus and name recognition today.


Focusing is challenging!

This is going to be hard to master!

I know my name is Archie and when my parents call to me, I am supposed to...

Look up at them!

Ta Da!

How was that?

By George, I think of got it!

Treat Please!

nom nom nom

Have a super day everyone!

Please leave me a note and let me know!

Friday Funnies ~ Archie's Target Practice

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Archie!

Guess what we learned at puppy kindergarten this week?

Something called... Target!

All I have to do is touch something with my nose and I get a treat!

These hooomans are so easy to please!

Here I am demonstrating my "Target Practice" to my teacher Anita!

She thinks I am a genius!

I am ok with that!

Look what greeted me on the way out of the training center at the Humane Society of Boulder Valley?

Pug Art!


How fun is that!

The kids must have heard about me and drew my picture with chalk!!

I think I will practice "Targeting" the Pug Art!

Tee Hee!



I am famous!

Where is my limo to take me home?

What?

I have to go home in our regular car?

Ok... No problem.

Can I at least have a Cheerio for the road?

I am famous and famished!

Tee Hee! :)

How to Wet Felt ~ Wool Beads

Hi everyone!

I have had so much fun needle felting wool lately that I thought it would be neat to try wet felting the same wool roving into beads!

I found this fabulous tutorial and had to try it right away!

It was so much fun!

After making some beads and letting them dry for 24 hours, I sewed them to some stems that I made from bending floral wire.

Voila!

Wool balloons for my mini wool teddy bear that my sister, Melanie made for me!

How fun!

Wet felting is very fast, fun and easy to do!

I used wool roving for this project but you can also felt 100% wool yarn that has been knitted or crocheted to make neat things like dolls, purses, slippers and more!

What are your favorite art projects to make?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

I would love to hear all about them!

Archie's New Yard Art!

Hi everyone!

Happy Wednesday!

I am so excited to show you the new yard art my mom just bought!

She found ALL of it on Super Duper SALE for 70% off at Joanns!

She went in for buttons and yarn and came home with these wonderful goodies for me to send pee-mail on!

Tee Hee!

She got a metal cricket, flower, mushrooms and lupine flowers for this neat display!

...and she even bought me little metal bird friends and a vegetable garden that I cannot destroy. :)

Green Pepper & Corn

Strawberry & Tomato

Here are the flowers from the front yard that I say hello to every morning on our way out the door for our walk.

and here is the cute little puggy statue that greets me when we come home!

She got him on sale at Hobby Lobby for $6 and the mosaic birdhouse at Goodwill for $1!

I think he looks just like me!

Momma says it is so much fun to pick up little things along the way that make you smile.

The puggy reminds her of me and the birdhouse of my parrotlet brother, Gilbert. :)

How fun is that?

What fun treasures have you found lately?

Please leave us a note and let us know.

We cannot wait to hear all about them!

Meet our friend Murphie Jo!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Archie and I would love to introduce you to our new friend, MurphyJo and his talented mom, Liz!

MurphyJo was the winner of my 1st day of Summer Pizza Slice Giveaway!

We just got this fun update from MurphyJo and Liz that the Pizza (with extra fiber) was a huge success!

He had such a good time playing with it that he and his mom made me a fleece toy and sent to me as a surprise!

This is for me?

Oh I just LOVE it!

It is tough enough to play tuf of war with!

...and soft enough to sleep with!

The perfect toy!

Thank you Liz and MurphyJo!

When you have time, please visit their blog and say hello!

I know that would love to meet you!

Here I am waiting for the door bell to ring!

Momma invited an old family friend to come and meet me!

His name is Bogart , and he and Angel Emmitt were great friends!

Friday Funnies ~ Love is in the Air!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me ... Archie!

After meeting my very first Mother Bear, Bella, I have been blowing kisses to everyone I see!

Here I am kissing my mom!

I learned so much from Bella while she was here!

Now I see hearts everywhere!

Look at this magical strawberry our friend Lynne in England picked from her garden this morning!

I think Bella sent her a kiss in a magic bubble!



Now... Close your eyes

and touch your cheek.

Did you feel that?

That was me and Bella sending you a big kiss too!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
