My Snarling Darling

My welcome home committee consists of happy faces and one snarling darling... My Tommy. He is a little GROUCH! I dream of the days when he was little and he would let me snuggle him close, play fetch with him and dress him in cute little outfits. Unfortunately those days gave way to the cantankerous, grouchy old man/dog, he is today.Yet, I still dream of the cute little t-shirts I could buy or the sweaters I could crochet.... sweet, sweet thoughts...










These dreams led me to Deborah Mazarakes Designs and these adorable t-shirts...
Then I remembered Tommy's personality... which led me to these Designs By Hafapea


If only Tommy were still willing to get dressed up! I would definitely add all four of these to his wardrobe! There are so many more to choose from at each of the above shops.All Fantastic!

Lastly, I dream of putting him in his very own Grouchy Oscar Hat custom made by me, a.k.a. Aunt Wednesdays.

I like a bit of mongrel myself, whether it's a man or a dog; they're the best for everyday.
  ~George Bernard Shaw   

Tommy is growling, I guess it's his snack time... Happy Shopping!

David Gray - This Year's love


Ways I saw love today, Valentines 2012…

1.       A mom rushing through the store, with 2 toddlers, to pick up cupcakes to take to her older daughters Valentine’s party.

2.       A gentleman showing off a text from his grown daughter that said:  “Daddy you are the most important man in my life- Happy Valentine’s Day  … I <3 U

3.       Dear friends, who have been struggling, announce that they are going to save their 20 year marriage.

4.       Flowers being gifted

5.       Balloons being shared among friends

6.       Cards received

7.       A grandpa buying candy for his grandkids


8.       A dad surprising his daughter at work with chocolate covered strawberries

9.       Emails exchanged

10.    My personal favorite- a love letter that said in part:

“You place the worth in my walk. My uniqueness keeps me endeavoring goals, but your involvement makes all of them so fun and exciting!”

Fueling the wish, the dream inside of me” –Noelle Dunn

Josh Sussman and Aunt Wednesdays

Josh Sussman with Aunt Wednesdays Miss Melody Doll at the 2011 American Music Awards

Eeeeeee! According to his twitter account - Josh Sussman will appear in a 2012 Super Bowl Ad, this Sunday!

Josh Sussman (featured above- holding my Miss Melody Doll) is best known for his role as Hugh Normous on Wizards of Waverly Place and Jacob Ben Israel on Glee. Josh will appear in the 2012 Pepsi Super Bowl Commercial with Sir Elton John and The X factor Winner, Melanie Amaro! I’m totally watching the Super Bowl!

Miss Melody is one of our TabbyAbbyz™ Custom Made Dolls. She was destined for fame when she made the trip to Hollywood (via www.theindiexhibit.org) for display at the 2011 American Music Awards GBK Gift Lounge. She appeared in pictures with Jasmine Villegas, The Situation, Brooke Hogan and many others. Check out our new Hollywood page created by www.bgstudiosphotography.blogspot.com to see pictures from this event.

TabbyAbbyz™ dolls are fully jointed and their heads turn. "Melody" is not intended for play with small children, because of her small necklace and hair accessories. However, the fun thing is that you can order you own TabbyAbbyz™ doll with all of the following choices:

EYE COLOR: Blue, Green, Brown, lavender (or any color you want)

JEWELRY: Necklaces, Rings, Earrings, lip ring,

You get to decide exactly what you want your  TabbyAbbyz™  Doll to look like. You can also decide if she will be made with the intention of safety for the littlest hands or if she will be ready for the red carpet with her very own Swarovski Crystal Jewelry.
