Welcome the newbies...

There's a boatload of new folk at Trafalgar's Square, so let's begin the introductions!



This first group is from the CIRCUS TROUPE, a band of performing cuddle bugs.
Here's Wellington...you can tell he's well loved.


 
And this is Oliver, he's a winner.


And Esmerelda, the beauty.


And, my favorite of all (don't tell the others), Trot.  He can tie a beautiful bow tie.



Let's give them a hand, they live for applause.  :)


In keeping with the circus theme, I've created this happy trio:


 I wish I could find a green umbrella...

And, the much requested "Trot, the Star Flyer" print is now available in the shop!



Thanks so much for stopping by.  Valentine's Day is just around the corner, so tomorrow I'll be showcasing some new lovelies, as well as a SweetHeart giveaway.
Hugs and Kisses!
XOXOXOX

Well, it's about time...

Hi all!

I am sooo sorry about this hugemoungous lapse on the blog, but we've been up to our ear lobes in all sorts of exciting stuff...
First off, I have to show you our new home!

That's right, we finally moved out of our teeny, tiny, grubby, grimy apartment into a real house.  No more midnight treks across bleak parking lots (and no moochy neighbors stealing our parking space), no drafty stairwells with flights and flights of stairs to climb in the pouring rain, no doors slamming below us, or cigarette smoke drifting down on us from upper balconies.  No kitchen in the front room, no neighbor's dog's messes on our welcome mat, no drama from the same-landing neighbor's knife fights, nope, nope, nope.

And what's even better, this home comes with a yard, lots and lots of yard!



Even Pearly's sidewalk people like it here:


We are so in love with the yard (and most especially, the porch), it doesn't matter that there's only one bathroom and bedroom for the four of us, that the kitchen cupboards smell like an antique store, or that the laundry room is out in the garage...


So, that being said, what with Gwynnie's birthday, our car completely breaking down, Christmas, New Year's, the move, and our newly arrived flu bugs, things have been a leeetle bit crazy this past month. 
Thanks so much for being patient and hanging with the slow posts.  Part of my New Year's resolution is to keep this baby updated at least twice a week.  :)

(as a side note, I've got lots of Valentine's goodies to post over the next few days, and another giveaway, as well as armfuls of new prints, so stay tuned) 

Cheers!
