A while back I was nominated for a couple awards by Coralee & Finn @ Bark & Chatter. Though it has been a couple of weeks, I have been a little overwhelmed with learning all this blogging stuff so I am officially thanking Coralee, Finn & the rest of their crew!! THANK YOU!!!
The awards are The Super Sweet Blogging Award & the Versatile Blogger Award.
This really made my day, week and month when Coralee & Finn nominated us.
Both of these awards come with their own set of rules.

Cookies or Cake?
Cake… but more specific, CUPCAKES!!
Vanilla or Chocolate?
Vanilla with some type of filling, either cream or jelly!
What is your favorite sweet treat?
Believe it or not… WATERMELON!! I love the stuff

Share Seven Things About Yourself:
- I have had dogs my entire life… I remember my first dog was a German Shepard named King. We found him on July 4th, as he was terrified of fireworks. He was the best dog in the world and passed away when I was 12.
- Even though we had Shih Tzus when I was growing up, Katie was my first Shih Tzu foster (failure). I fell in love with her. She is very quiet, reserved and suffers from allergies… but when she wants to love up to you or play, you know it.
- I was raised by two incredible people. I lost my father to Conjestive Heart Failure in November 2010.
- I married my best friend Jeremiah on June 23, 2006.
- I have lived in some of the most beautiful places in the country, Las Vegas, NV (Kyra Pictured at Red Rock) & Heber Valley, UT.
- I had always wanted to do agility with dogs and I got my chance when I adopted Kyra from Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in 2002!! Kyra is actually in the background watching Sunny take a jump!!
- And lastly, if you didn’t already know, I love taking pics of my dogs… and other peoples too!!
I’ve done things a little different on these awards, I’ve combined both!! So congrats and keep Dog Bloggin’!!!

Thank you for the nomination! I am so honored!
I loved learning more about you and your dogs. Kyra is gorgeous and so is Sunny. I am also jealous of where you have lived before. You are right, they are some of the most gorgeous places in the world.
Now I just have to see when I can award these wonderful awards to someone else! 🙂
Thanks again!

Congratulations on your first awards – how exciting is that?! And then you go and nominate me for not one – but TWO awards – I so don’t deserve it – they are my first! I will cherish them forever. Your thoughtfulness is much appreciated. I like that you like my blog because I work very hard at posing for all those crazy pictures my momma takes and the rewards of having you read my blog makes it all worthwhile. Thank you, thank you, thank you – WOOF!
WOOF WOOF!

Congratulations on your awards! I love the photos you’ve shown, particularly the one of Kyra at Red Rock – I could look at that for ages. The agility one made me smile.
Thank you for nominating me, I really appreciate it!
