I want to introduce everyone to our wonderful canine companions that give us so much love and inspiration.

Between Beth and me we have 8 rescue dogs.  Yes, you read that right, 8!  What can we say???  We cannot say no.

This is Luci!!  She is a darling baby that my spouse

 found running around in the road last year.   She is a typical lab that just loves to be with her people, especially when they are piled in the bed!!

Here is Mr. Johnson.  He was rescued from the Greyhound Rescue at the track down on the coast.  (Why have we not banned dog racing yet?????)

He is a big lazy lover boy with the worst breath you have ever smelled in your life!  He is Grandma's favorite even though she will not admit it.

I will be posting the rest of the family soon.  Remember, don't shop, adopt!!!

There are a ton more out there....

Don't forget,,,,we donate 15% of all custom dog portraits and pet carrier purchases to your choice of local rescue or shelter organizations.  It is the best way for us to not bring more home!!!

Chat with you all soon.

Swampfest - Austin, TX

This was my first trip to Austin and I have to admit it is a groovy town!  We were in Austin to participate in the Swampfest!  The perfect place for River Rats (that is what they call people that come from the Delta like we do!)

The event was located in downtown Austin in front of the Texas History Museum.  There was a great assortment of food from the bayou.  We ate some thin, crispy catfish fillets that my Mammaw would have had a hard time beating.

There was real boudin, gumbo and of course funnel cakes.  (Funnel cakes have nothing to do with Louisiana, but they are SOOOO good!)

Our next event will be in Fredericksburg, TX.  Please look for us in Austin again at the Old Pecan Street Festival.

Should be a blast.

Ciao for now!
