and god created...Lola

Lola took over our computer today and made this post
She told me that she wanted her thoughts written our here in full text:
This post is dedicated to my pet-parents,
thank you for loving me as much as you would a less-furry child.
And for finally becoming engaged.
You will be my *official* pet-parents
very soon.
love always Lola xoxoxoxo
PS, there's poop in the hallway ;)
Sneaky lass!
Those are such kind words, aww...
such great thought rages through her mind
must have been her Siamese brother and sister
that put her up to this!
(they are all paws and cant type a single word)
despite her being a furry little creature of the highlands
she has some good things to say
big dog small package, that's her motto.

Urban Scotties
Even in the radical Mary Quant stylized '60's a scottie dog
was the perfect dog to have
heck why not wear matching outfits?
and who does not want 1, or 2
but 3!
Our cats wouldn't stand for it, but they are Siamese
what do they know besides being chock full of trouble!

Lola Havana the Uber sex pot



Found these old sketches on ebay for sale a while back...
thought they were pretty sexy for the time they were made
question is though in 2007, are all girls that own scotties
pretty as a pin-up?
Hell ya!

***engaged at last***

Its official...
There is a gorgeous ring!
I woke up Saturday morning and Dave said
"pack your bags because I am taking you to
Niagara Falls this weekend!"
I quickly answered with "really...wow...ok!?!"
We made it there for the afternoon and checked-in
then caught a hotel shuttle bus
to see the horseshoe falls
It was so beautiful to be there in the winter!
Totally amazing.
The photos we took were incredible
(and I will post them on our Flikr account, not here)
we were so cold but wanted to keep snapping pictures!
The mist from the falls also makes it insanely chilly!
"Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!"
Everything was covered in thick crystal clear ice
and it was so unreal to see
it was like an ice storm hit x 1000!
(oh the poor trees must be hurtin inside!)
We then caught the hotel shuttle back to our room
and I had a tiny snooze under the ultra warm blankets
while Dave left the room and secretly called my Dad!
and also made all of the special arrangements
for the special night.
The falls actually had the colored spotlights shining
on them, which we thought they only did during the summer
so it was even more stunning to see the falls this way.
We went to dinner and there was
Moet champagne waiting for us when we got there on ice.
We always wanted to have dinner beside the falls!!!
Apparently the entire place knew what was going on and left
us quietly alone yet were secretly watching David's every move...
As for the rest of the story...you will just have to ask us
at our winter wedding

flickr pro!

As a xmas/birthday/engagement gift from our friend Steve in Vancouver,
we now have flickr "PRO"
which will give us a giant-unlimited-posting-capability-upgrade
for our flickr photo account!
Please check it out when you get the chance!
There has always been a link to it on this blog by the way,
and for the record, blogs are for writing,
not just for photo posting!
(I will try to write more in the future)

Pigs on Factory Farms





Finally some good news today!


Just days after Smithfield Foods, the largest pig-flesh producer in the world, announced that it was phasing out the use of cruel gestation crates, Canada’s largest pig-flesh company announced that it will make the same move. Maple Leaf Foods has pledged to phase out these tiny metal-and-cement cages:
which mother pigs are confined to for their entire lives.
The cages are too small even for the pigs to turn around.

Smithfield Foods credited McDonald’s with pushing it to make the changes that are now having a wonderful ripple effect—changes that PETA first started pressuring the company to make 10 years ago and has never let up on.

PETA’s efforts are now really paying off for pigs.
for all the details on this monumental step forward for the hundreds of millions of pigs killed for food each year.

Thank you for helping us make this exciting victory for animals a reality!


Sincerely,

Marta Holmberg
Senior Street Team Coordinator
