First off, I’d like to wish my husband Tim and dogger co-blogger Zeke a very happy birthday. Yes they were born on the same day. Easy to remember, hey? I love you guys to pieces and hope you both have an awesome day (and I hope you like the tickets I bought for the Hip Hop Broadway musical, because I could sense you wanted to go there).
Awwwww! Zeke was such a cute puppy! And Tim looks so rested before little James came along. #parentingishard
I sense a date night coming on tonight… *leaving to pick out something to wear*
Okay I’m back now.

And don’t forget your furry friends! Zeke love this idea so much! Pamper your pooch (or feline friend) with a bed fit for royalty. Whether it’s an elaborate estate, or a modest mansion, treat your furry friend to a lap of luxury. Local media personalities and influencers were put to work to create comfortable and stylish pet beds perfect for man’s best friend. Each participant chose a piece of furniture from the Habitat for Humanity ReStore and transformed it into an upcycled bed of doggy dreams. Don’t forget to give the challengers a round of a-paws and take a bed home for yourself! Bid on the fetching pooch palaces which will be up for auction. 100% of the proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity.
Now for the best part! Up for grabs are FOUR tickets for one day of this wonderful event! The contest is over Tuesday March 21, 2017 at midnight MST. There no restrictions for winning other than the winner must be in Edmonton on the days of the show.
