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!

Celtic Summer Mandala Design

I can’t believe I forgot to post about the Celtic Summer Mandala design before now! Geesh! Well, it’s still TECHNICALLY summer, so here goes…

My new (ahem) Celtic Summer Mandala has a six-petal flower of bright red, yellow, orange, and magenta Celtic spiral art, and is framed by a nest of Celtic Trinity Knots like green summer grass and leaves. The edges of the mandala fade off into a deep blue summer night sky, twinkling with stars. It may be a little late in the season, but think of this design as a way to stretch summer out a bit longer – hah!
