All About You in 52, Week 15!

**Winner from All About You in 52 will be announced tomorrow due to Holy Week and Easter.**

My Bailey Bailey is an important part of my life. My little fat dachshund meets me at the door, sniff’s in my purse for anything I might have brought home for him, lays down with me when I sick, listens to me when we are outside chasing the birds and looking for his doggie friends. I chase Bailey around the house and he chases me. Never give him a dog toy that squeaks because it will on live for about 15 minutes.
I’ve had other pets, Raisin, Oreo, Sam etc. I’ve had turtles, birds, fish, hamster, rabbit and cats. My first dog has become so much apart of my childhood memories and I believe my compassion and love towards animals started with Tippie.

Did you have a pet as a child and what do you remember about your pet?
(If you did not have a pet as a child, any pet you want to write about is great)

Here is my answer:

(The background of blue is only a mat, the scalloped edges are the edge of the layout.)

Journaling:
Tippie, my first friend!
I remember the feeling of love & laughter.
I know Tippie was too short to jump on the couch to sit with me.
It was funny to see him try.
We would play in the yard and chase each other
Tippie is a happy memory from my childhood.

  4. Hi Debby

    I thought if I didn't get this one done today, it would be 2 weeks so believe it or not -here it is. It was great remembering how much fun Taffy was when she was part of the family.

    Deb, what a beautiful layout! I had 2 dogs when I was growing up, Maggie (named after the song Maggie Mae) and Duke. My first words were old dog! LOL! So animals have always had a soft spot in my heart, for sure. :)

  10. I couldn't find a pic of our "garage" cat we had when I was a child, but I did have pics of my first pet I had as an adult, so I decided to scrap one of these. I chose this one, since it was taken the day we had to give them away. It was sad, but necessary. I really didn't think I'd get this done this week, but I surprised myself, so here it is!
