The Perfect Afternoon: Glittery Ribbon, Milk Glass, and Sprinkled Cupcakes

- October 18, 2012 | by April -

For more photos, I combined some of my favorite things: glittery ribbon, milk glass, roses, sprinkled cupcakes, and my sweet {but extremely intense} dog. Did you miss the giant balloon photos I posted on Monday? You can check them out here.

That’s my trouble maker.

When he was a puppy, he chewed two holes in our wall. How does a dog chew a hole in the wall? How do they get their teeth into it?

        Wasn’t he the one in your outtakes from a few days ago? (I love the outtakes – too funny).

    Oh, he is to cute, April! What a sweet doggy face.

    There are chunks of trim missing from around our bedroom door where my dog chewed when he was a puppy and we wouldn’t let him in our room. They can be a pain but we love them anyway. 😉

    I’m feeling so inspired by your new photos. They feel really natural and relaxed – and very you. You must be thrilled to bits with how they turned out. I was telling my husband I want a new photo (or three) for my blog – the current photo of me outside someone elses garage with buckets and spades and rakes – not so sexy. I showed my husband your red balloon photos and will show him these ones as well. No pressure sweetheart – I just want ones as beautiful as April’s. Hmmm. Don’t fancy my chances.

    Our dog used to pull the flyscreens – metal frame as well – out of the windows. It didn’t matter if they had security grills, if it was aluminum mesh or if we piled stuff in front of the windows (you can imagine an entire house with piles of stuff in front of each window). Wouldn’t change her for the world though.

      No pressure at all! Hahahahaha!

      Oh my gosh…that’s too funny. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when we got home and saw that the pups had chewed a huge hole in the wall. Luckily, my parents own a construction business and were able to fix the problem easily.

      Thanks Sage! Nope, a local bakery actually give it to us for free when we told them it was for a “photo shoot.”

    Awwwww! He’s precious! My mother-in-law tells us “Well, you can have nice stuff or you can have dogs.” We chose dogs…four of ’em! Love them to death. Great, great, great pics!!

      Hahahahaha…that sounds about right. We let our dogs sit and cuddle on the couches with us, so we always by darker colors that aren’t that expensive, because we know we will replace them often!

    Gorgeous photos!
    Especially love the trouble maker. Well, I love everything … but I can relate to loving such a trouble maker as I have one of my own. I still love her to bits. She is an old lady now (8years) but still often behaves like a puppy. 🙂

    xox,

    Ursula
