To that end, I found places for the food stuff! Some of the Girl Scout cookies are on the baking island (I suppose in case the homemade creations are a total fail!):
I'm loving the Sams'-sized box of Goldfish hanging out in the corner, too! Because, where else does one store such a behemoth?!
And, here, the kitty insists on some food ...
 |
| She's all, "It's RIGHT HERE, hoo-mons!" |
... while the dumb dog begs for what's not his!
These pups have it goin' on in their corner of the kitchen. When no one is looking, they're going to tear into those boxes of treats, just sayin'.
The eat-in area is set up for a little snack time:
And, on the eat-in wall is one of my favorite places:
The donuts are way-up-high doing that out-of-sight-out-of-mind thing.
In the family room, more of the peeps have a stash of something tasty ...
That guy is going for it with the Girl Scout cookies while the pup is anxiously waiting for the inevitable crumb drops!
While not a food creation, the toothpaste and soap found their homes, too:
I love the little things already in the bathroom on the vanity. Perhaps I could make this family a shower curtain sometime ...
The other big notable is that the house could probably technically be called a kennel by now! I have a very difficult time resisting picking up the pups at garage sales and antique stores. So, I don't tend to resist! Because ... why.
There are three dogs in the house including this one ...
... that are actually from a family collection. They were a part of the Christmas "mountain" scenes we built under our Christmas tree as a kid. I'm pretty sure these are dogs my Dad used in his mountain scenes when he was a kid. It's a long story, but it's really fun bringing these to life on an everyday basis!
These, too, are recent adoptees:
The one in the chair was a must-have particularly because she's blue. And, no, that will not be her name. I'm still thinking on names for all of them because there are so many! Ah, but that won't stop them from getting named! ANYWAY, the collie up there and the one here ...
... came from an antique store in Michigan this summer. I had a hard time deciding between the two. So, you guessed it, I didn't. HOW COULD I CHOOSE?!
Also from Michigan came this dalmatian ...
... who is politely requesting to share with Grandma's Life Savers. (Barking up the right tree, there, pal.)
Across the front lawn is this little one whom I could not resist given her flower crown:
She reminds me of what My Girl would pick out, so I had to have her.
Oh, but, wait. There's more! Upstairs, we have the resident corgi:
I don't know how he got up on the bunk bed, but do we really ever know how little boys accomplish their daily antics?
And, in a room straight above, this sweet pup wants to get in on the cuddle-in-Grandpa's-lap action!

| The cat is all, "Just try it." |
You saw one of its siblings waiting for the Girl Scout cookie crumbs and its mama in the kitchen doorway. There's another sibling, though!
It would like to chew on a crayon or two, thank you. (You can see in the background over the girl's shoulder that there's a box of kitty litter, finally. Now if they only had a litter box ...)
This little family made an appearance this summer at the teddy bear picnic on the rooftop patio ...
... but, I didn't want them to be overlooked!
One of my favorite recent adoptees is this little one:
She's just kind of chill minding her own business in the fancy-schmancy room (which has also received a little attention with the additional buffet, flower vase and coffee/cake time!)!
My very most-favorite of all of them will remain this one, though ...
... because she looks the most like my very-favorite-dog-ever. 😊💛
Up next?! FALL. Ohhhhh, how I love Fall! I have lots of ideas just waiting to come to life! Stay tuned!
