Well this has been a whirlwind of a week….we have delivered two beautiful litters of pups, married our precious daughter, celebrated Mother’s Day with all four of our children and families and said good bye to so many loved ones that we rarely get to see….such incredible fun…so many blessings….but soooo tired! 🙂

Now comes the not so fun part….cleaning up weeks of tossing clothes….just not the right outfit, right?! ….putting off cleaning (definitely other priorities, lol)…..mowing and weed-eating….who has time for that when your daughter is getting married?!….losing all the weight that you just put on from all the parties and incredible food…:( Grooming dogs whose hair has suddenly grown an inch and on top of that…they have had SO much fun running through the new grass and stickers! Fun, fun getting all those out! ….unpacking….putting away…crying over memories….looking at photos…taking care of new babies and moms…the list goes on…..

Having said all that…it is good to be home and getting back to “normalcy” again if there is such a thing…I am looking forward to spending these last two weeks with my older babies and preparing them for their new homes, and my newest babies are just adorable….such a fun cycle of life. I also have a couple of new moms due in June so we are getting those mamas ready too…

Hope you all are enjoying the Spring before the summer sets in…..stayed tuned!
Have a terrific day….

The time is approaching very quickly now…my youngest child, my only daughter, will be getting married next week and I can hardly believe the time is nearly here!
We have been extremely busy with wedding preparations, so if I have not responded to some of my emails as promptly as I usually do, I greatly apologize, but time has just been so short these last few weeks.

Next week will be completely packed, so if you are checking in with me or inquiring about pups, please know that if I don’t respond immediately it is because I am in the middle of wedding preparations. The week after Mother’s Day things should be settling in back to normal and I should have two new litters on the ground by then! Both litters are due Mother’s Day weekend so between that and the wedding festivities we will be very preoccupied. 🙂

The wedding is scheduled to be outside as typically May has very pleasant weather but as I stepped outside today I thought it was winter again! This weather is so crazy and I know many around the country are also dealing with very unusual weather right now….

Please do check back with us in a couple of weeks….I hope to have some gorgeous new babies…so fun! 🙂

I hope this finds you all enjoying a beautiful Sunday afternoon. It is so gorgeous right now in Texas and teeming with life and beauty. This time of year here is undescribable….the wildflowers mixes, the bluebonnets, the butterflies and all the young babies….baby calves, baby ducks, baby chickens, baby redbirds….we even saw a baby mole (not too cute :() the other day. New life is everywhere and of course I am particularly drawn to babies of any sort, so an especially fun time for me.

In the midst of all the tradgedies up East, as well as in West, TX…very close to home for me, I take comfort in the newness springing up everywhere. My heart is so heavy for the loss of so many families and truthfully the kind of evil that exists in people hurting people is incomprehensible to me. Life is hard enough without the destruction that we can cause to one another….ahhh,….just so sad.

Hard to transition from that, but on another note, we have three gorgeous little black babies who are available to bring lots of love and joy to someone out there. “Josie”, our gorgeous little solid black girl, “Benise”, our beautiful black girl with white chest and feet…so cute!, and last but not least, our fantastic black & tan boy, “Barron” who will be just magnificent as his coat begins to come in and show off those handsome tan markings…so interesting and lovely.
For those of you who are waiting for our lighter colors, we have litters coming in May that will produce the light creams, whites, partis, etc…
And for those of you who adore the merles….we have two new merle girls due to come in season at any time…hopefully producing some lovely little merles by summer.
I love all the new pics that have come in from past babies and love hearing from ALL of you! 🙂 Keep those updates coming….I feel like such a privileged mom to have so many cute babies out there! LOL

I write this with a very heavy heart this morning. Sadly we lost two of BB’s babies during the night. The last two pups born were unusually tiny…barely 2 oz. They seemed to be strong just after birth but steadily declined during the night and unfortunately were just not strong enough to make it. What beautiful babies they were and we are so sad. The other four are nursing and seem strong today, but of course we are watching them closely and keeping a steady eye on their weight. BB is such a great mom and is taking great care of them. I will post stats and photos soon.
