Last night’s Supermoon/Bloodmoon lunar eclipse was very cool! Despite the mosquitos! 🙂
A New Gromit Shot
Just another picture of our dog, Gromit, looking up, giving us her “I’m cute and thus awaiting a treat with great anticipation” face.
She has such a long nose, I swear she must have some collie in her distant lineage. When she looks down her nose at you I feel like she should be wearing a set of half-glasses and judging us harshly – LOL. But all we really know is that she’s mostly Lab and a bit Australian Shepherd. Well, she seems pretty happy with herself in any case. 😀

Three New Coloring Books with My Celtic Designs
Over the years I’ve created a number of Celtic pieces of art, and now I’ve put many of them into Celtic Coloring Books! Great for kids and adults, and for fun, creativity, and relaxation. There are three: Celtic Alphabet Coloring Book, Celtic Designs Coloring Book (a general collection), and Celtic Mandalas Coloring Book (round designs). Each is available at Amazon (published via CreateSpace) – links are below, with cover images and official descriptions… (you can also find them on their official AOFV page here)
Celtic Alphabet Coloring Book by Kristen N. Fox
A Set of 26 Original, Hand-Drawn Letters To Color
The original, hand-drawn alphabet in the Art of FoxVox Celtic Alphabet Coloring Book includes classic Celtic elements such as intricate knotwork and circular spiral art, as well as leaf and vine motifs. The compositions and decorations are uniquely tailored to each letter so no two are exactly alike, but together make a beautifully cohesive set.
Color for stress relief, or color them for the fun of it – following the knotwork as it loops around, and seeing where the path takes you!

Gromit at 16 Weeks Old
Time is flying and Gromit is growing so fast! She’s a 16 weeks old puppy now, and her baby incisors are falling out and adult ones coming in. Next will be those little pointy baby fangs!
Here are some new photos – the snow is almost all gone and we put out a long tie-out so she could finally run around without dragging us behind her like we were in a Scooby Doo cartoon – LOL.
Gromit, sitting all noble:
And standing in the high wind:
And looking derpy as only a dog can, with an ear back, a crushed ball hanging out the side of her mouth, and her tongue jutting out – heh:

Adopted a Puppy!
It was finally time to get a dog again, and through a friend we discovered a family who dog had puppies and they were adopting out! So, say hello to Gromit! She’s named after the dog in the British claymation show “Wallace and Gromit” – we decided on the name when she was still too small to know if she was a boy or girl, but we figured it worked either way. 🙂 She’s a mostly lab pup, with a tad bit of aussie shepherd in her, though she looks mostly yellow lab at this point, and a little over 6 weeks old – awwww!
