how funny about the clothes mentioned that are available at cracker barrel. i havent eaten at a cracker barrel in over 15 years, but dont you know, the day after the dresses and santa suits were mentioned, my boyfriend's mother took us out to eat there?????? of course i made a BEELINE for the doggie things, and brought over the dress, saying how unbelievably beautiful the buttercup would be in such a frock, and the boy is rolling his eyes saying "SHE DOESN'T NEED ANOTHER DRESS. SHE HAS NOT ASKED FOR ONE, SO SHE IS NOT GETTING ONE." party pooper. his mother did say that if i wanted to drag my sewing machine out, she'd get some scraps and other materials for me to get started on... not a bad idea. first on my list is a harness vest LOL.
to stay on topic here, we saw the santa outfit at target yesterday, and when i held it up to show The Boy, a woman walked by and said "omigod, i could NEVER do that to MY dog..." and when i gave her "that look", i said "fine. let me show you a pic of my dog..." so i showed her buttercup's santa pic from, maybe 2002? and she immediately said "okay, well now if i had a small fancy dog like that, i'd do the same thing. you're right. ooooh did you see all the dresses they have on sale for little dogs???? they're so cute!!"
ha. so deep down, she's one of us. i knew it
ann marie and the "ho ho ho...i eat so much so i can wear my santa outfit with pride!" buttercup
