What a cute Princess!


I took my girls, Isabella and India to a private showing of Beverly Hills Chihuahua in Gulf Breeze. It was a sold out showing and they even had to turn people and dogs away. There were over 100 dogs and owners that attended. It was put on by the Chihuahua Club of Gulf Breeze and the proceeds went to the Humane Society. They had wonderful door prizes and prizes for the 3 best dressed pooches...I guess you know I took home one of those prizes...a beautiful PINK collar and leash by Swarovski. I also won a wonderful door prize gift basket from one of the Vet's office in town. It was filled with lots of goodies for my babies. The movie was cute. Isabella slept through it but India watched the whole thing. A good time was had by all.

Fall in the South Yall!

Happy Fall Yall


The pampas grass and sea oats are in bloom!
This Pecan has already left its protection and fallen to the ground. I found some that were ready to eat and boy were they good. The meat on this tree was very sweet!

This Pecan Tree was loaded. It will be a good harvest this fall!


I love all of God's Creations. This little visitor was out for the sunshine.


We still have lots of flowers in bloom down in the South.


A nice late afternoon right before sunset with friends at the beach.



Kudzu! It is all over the South. My Grandmother used to say it will cover the earth! LOL



Beautiful flowers.

The Golden Rod is in full bloom this time of the year! ah chew

We have a lot of Pines, Not the pretty color that you get but a steady green all year.

Ah and don't forget the Love Bugs!!! They swarm in the spring and fall. Yuck

The pretty and steady Sunshine that we get in the Sunshine State!

In the ole Cotton Fields back Home!

The cotton is ready for pickin. It usually takes about 3 picks as it does not all come in at the same time.

Well it is fall in the south and I just wanted to share with some of my friends all over the country what it feels like down here. There is not much of a chill in the air but there is not much humidity either. That is a blessing. We still have a lot of flowers blooming until after Christmas and the sun shines most of the time. There is cotton to pick and pecans and citrus to harvest. What is fall like in your part of the country?

This past Saturday was Pensacola's annual Barktoberfest. It is sponsored by the Humane Society. Lots of adorable dogs and their matching owners. I took my girls, India and Isabella for some free treats and a lot of attention. I heard one of the dog owners tell her pouch: "See sweetie, I told you everyone else would be dressed up". I laughed so hard I almost wet myself!!! What a great way to bring out the smile in everyone there! Hope you have your smile on today.
