Groom with Golf Club and Bride Wedding Cake Topper

I just completed a fun custom order!  My customer wanted her groom to be posed with a golf club and also wanted their two dogs included.  She sent me pictures of the tux, dress and the puppies and also described the pose she wanted for the groom.  Here's the first picture I sent to my customer, after creating the bride and groom :

 They were very pleased with the bride and groom, 

so I went on to creating the puppies...

They have a Boxer and wanted him to wear a black bow tie,

and they have a Yorkie and wanted her to have a pink bow by her ear.

Below are a couple pictures of the completed topper.  The bride is wearing an ivory dress embellished with a beaded design, and a beaded belt.  She is holding a bouquet of beautiful flowers in yellow, peach, orange and white.  Her brown hair is straight with big curls at the ends.  The groom is wearing a grey tux, ivory shirt and tie and is wearing a peach rose boutonniere.

What a Little Dog Must Put up With!

As many of you know, we have two dogs.  Izzy is a big dog... She can be restless, gets bored easily and she eats her food and snacks very fast!  Emmi is a little dog... She is patient (until provoked ~ She can definitely stand her ground!), loves to search (hunt) for critters and she eats her food and snacks very slowly!

.¸.•´¸.•*´¨) ¸.•*¨)

(¸.•´ (¸.•` ♥  This is what Emmi has to put up with... Izzy gobbles up her food and then goes right to Emmi and plants herself down... Waiting... Izzy wants to be sure to be right there, just in case Emmi drops a piece of her food on the floor.  Izzy always waits to eat it though, until Emmi is completely finished, then she'll gobble it down, looking for more!  Izzy sure does have a bit of patience when she is waiting for Emmi to finish. :)   

Snack time proves the same, as shared in another Izzy and Emmi post from November: http://trinastrinketts.blogspot.com/2011/11/dogs-are-so-cute.html They each have their own personality and they are definitely a lot of fun!

Dogs Are So Cute!

It's Monday morning and I'm getting ready for another work week.  Our temperatures have been colder and there's frost outside most mornings.  Our daughter's dog, Emmi, is staying with us right now and she's not too happy walking outside in the grass on the frosty mornings!  Oh dear, just wait until there's snow... We will have to shovel a path for her for sure!  She is half Yorkie and half Maltese and so sweet, but also very stubborn and feisty!  She loves to hunt for critters and is a very picky eater.  I say this because when we give her and our dog, Izzie, each a snack (a dog biscuit), Emmi eats hers very slowly... and would just walk around with it in her mouth if it weren't for Izzie!  Izzie, on the other hand gobbles hers down in no time flat!  Emmi is VERY motivated to eat when Izzie is around!  And boy, does she protect her food dish and can definitely 'hold her own' if Izzie gets too close.  For those of you that may not know, Izzie was our Christmas gift last year from our daughter.  She's a rescue dog, a Red Heeler, and has added so much love and happiness to our lives.  She's a little jealous of Emmi right now, and often looks at her as if she wonders when Emmi will go home! LOL!  Anyway, I captured this picture of Emmi slowly eating her dog biscuit while Izzie is peeking around the corner of the couch... Izzie ate hers so fast that I'm certain she didn't even taste it!!  Every time, she immediately goes over to Emmi wants to eat Emmi's treat too!

Here's a picture I took of a frosty leaf in our yard... We still have leaves left on the trees, and a lot of leaves on the ground!  :)

Summer Fun!

My daughter, Melissa, is here from Texas and we have been enjoying her visit.  She did great driving straight through the night, all the way here. I guess I wasted my time worrying! Although, (knowing me) I will worry once again, when she's on the road headed back to Texas!  Anyway... Thankfully, she and her puppy dog, Emmi, arrived safely last Wednesday and will be here for a few more weeks.  

Emmi all harnessed in for her road trip! 

The weather has been beautiful, which was especially great when we went up north last weekend!  George's sister and her family have a cabin at Higgins Lake and we stayed with them, it was relaxing and fun.  All the dogs got along very well, and from all the playing and swimming in the lake, they were exhausted!  In fact, Izzie slept the entire drive home, then got right in her crate and slept all through the night and into the next day!  I heard that Lacey did the same!  I was a bit worried about Emmi and Izzie getting along, but it's going okay... They have their moments, Izzie likes to keep a close eye on Emmi and follows her everywhere... Emmi gets annoyed!  Izzie is a Red Heeler mix, we don't know what she's mixed with, but the Red Heeler in her is definitely dominant. Heelers, a.k.a. Australian Cattle Dogs, are a breed of herding dog originally developed in Australia for droving cattle over long distances across rough terrain.  Izzie loves to 'herd' and will gently nip at your ankles to get you to go where she thinks you should go.  Emmi is not crazy about being herded!  Emmi (a Yorkie/Maltese mix) is a free spirit and loves to chase critters and run where she wants to run!  So... Small disagreements between the two ensue. 

Izzie, keeping her eye on little Emmi at the lake!

While we were up north we went to The Hartwick Pines Logging Museum in Grayling.  A perfect day for a nice walk along the trails in the woods.  It was fun to see how the Loggers at the camp lived, and it was great to enjoy a bit of logging history!  It is beautiful there, here are a few pictures I took as we walked:
