Saturday's 2Peas Blogger Challenge....

A bit early, but hey, it's probably Saturday somewhere right now...

Do you scrapbook your pets?
Are you an obsessed pet owner?
How important is your pet in your life?
What are/were you present/past pets?
Any special memories?


Well, I have done a LOT of layouts of our 2 cats and 1 dog. These are "present" pets...so far I haven't scrapped any "past" pets, as I really don't have any good photos...now, I really enjoy using my digital camera to be able to get in close and get some great photos to scrap.

I wouldn't say I am an obsessed pet owner; but I do believe that having pets with children is a good way to teach responsibility and the circle of life. Heather has been around cats, dogs, mice, hamsters and fish all her life. She has had the joy of taking care of something that depends upon her, and has experienced the sadness of a pet's passing. We all learn to appreciate the time we have with our furry family members and often laugh at their antics. Each pet has a unique personality and we adore them all. I can't imagine our family without some kind of pet...it makes our house a home.

You can click on my link on the right to visit my pages at 2Peas to see more of what I have done, but here are a couple of my favorites:
Bathtime for Dakotah. Sheba, the grey and older cat, giving young Dakotah a bath, much to her dismay...

Casey, our 9 year old dog. We fostered her from the Humane Society at just 4 weeks of age,and has been a part of our family ever since.

Love you layouts. The one of you cats. We have a few pics of our older one giving the kitten a bath. They are important for kids I feel as well.

The LOs look great! We have a dog, and my girls just love her ;)

Love the LO's! If you have some not so great pet photos you could use them for the current Effer Dare!

Casey is adorable! It's fun to scrap the pets as they are so much a part of the family.
On the ABC album, yes I did a page for each letter of the alphabet - A for adorable, etc. with pictures of the cats. It was a lot of fun.
