Woof Wednesday

As many of you know, our sweet fur baby, Remington, was adopted from an SPCA shelter in town.  If it weren't for them, he would have been euthanized months before we even got to meet his sweet face.  I am forever grateful to the people who devote their time and money to saving animals.  And now I want to help too!

Woof Wednesdays is a non-profit organization that brings awareness to shelter dogs by posting their pictures and information on Wednesdays.  You can post via facebook or on your blog.  Their motto is "No paw left behind."  I hope you'll join us in the fight for animals that can't fight for themselves!

This week I'm bringing to you Rusty, the Rhodesian Ridgeback mix.  


Rusty is a shy, sweet, sensitive fellow. He spent one month in boarding school with Ralph Gibson, a well-known trainer in Alabama. Ralph brought Rusty out of a submissive state and gave him confidence. Rusty knows commands, and is obsessed with shaking hands.  Not aggressive. Rusty is fearful of small children and wary of strangers. It takes Rusty a while to build trust, but once bonded, he is your shadow, a true loyal friend.
He's a smart fella too :)

He is neutered, house trained and up-to-date on shots.  For more information on Rusty go here.
Location: Alabaster, AL
Adoption fee: $80-100, to cover a small portion of the vetting fee
Adoption Group:  Last Chance Dog Rescue Alabama

Canopy Stripes

As I mentioned in a previous post, black and white canopy striped fabric is one of my current obsessions. It's classic, clean and oh so elegant. Not to mention that it can make a bold statement in a room without being too flashy. I normally favor a very neutral color palette with accents of greens and robin's egg blues, and this pattern could be put in any such setting and be beautiful. Here a few of my favorite examples: Is this room spectacular or what? It's modern, classic and sophisticated! There is a large amount of stripes in this room, yet it's not overbearing. And the symmetry and clean lines displayed throughout give the room great balance. I could just plop this room right into my house! This is another example (as shown in a previous entry). If you don't have the money to invest in a rug, buy a few pillows and get the same look in your room for a fraction of the price. Whoever said black and brown don't go together was seriously mistaken. Lo...

Guest Room Before and After-Healing Aloe

 Here is a shot of the room in all of its coral glory.  Great for a teenager, not for a soothing guest room. And here is the Healing Aloe after.  Healing Aloe is a color by Benjamin Moore. It was hard to get a good shot of the true color, but it is more of a seafoam than gray. Aside from painting the walls and buying a new white quilt for the bed, everything else in the space we already had--most of which are hand-me-downs (bed and dresser) or thrift store finds (lamp and side table).  It will all be sufficient for now, and hopefully a space that our guests will love. I'm very happy with the outcome and the progress of one more room in the house coming closer to completion.  One down, three to go (at least in the painting department!)

Table Decorating Contest

Jon and I are leaving to spend a long weekend in San Antonio with his parents and his brother (who will be town from Arizona).  But before we go, I wanted to leave you with some pictures from the Officer Spouses Club Table Decorating Contest that was held last night. I called Jon on my way home from base, and he immediately asked "How was the contest?" to which I responded "Victorious." The 32nd FTS, our squadron, took first place! The theme was Silver Screen so we decided to focus on famous quotes from each movie genre. Each place setting featured a different movie. We had a "drive-in" for our center piece where clips of the famous quotes were shown. Welcome to the Jayhawk Drive-In! Wizard of Oz place setting. The glass had a button you could turn on to make the water swirl and look like a tornado inside. Also notice the witch's feet sticking out from under the plate :) A close-up of the yellow brick road I painted. Silence of the Lambs pl...
