camping, flat taffeta, and puppy tricks

so, lots of exciting new things today!

dad is a den leader for my little bro's cub scout troop, and for Christmas they game him a folding checkers table, designed for campouts. so funny!
In wedding-related news, David's Bridal's new spring line is ON THEIR WEBSITE! HOORAY! I chose a specific color and fabric, and then found all the bridesmaids dresses that come in that color, fabric, and are knee- or tea- length for my 'maids. Five girls, six dresses, you do the math. Not a lot of options... UNTIL NOW! two more dresses showed up today in my color/fabric! More on bridesmaid dresses later...

In ORANGE news, I found on i-do-it-yourself.com a link to this amazing tool, that lets you pick your colors (up to ten) and then it spits out all the pictures it can find in those colors! I put in navy and orange (duh!) and it spat out this beaut:

ok, so i've already strayed from the title of this post. the title was divined as i was playing with dad's new puppy (of which I promised pics but have yet to share any...oh the guilt). but her newest trick is a great one: when i let her out, she hides under the middle of the trampoline. my parents live on a large lot of woods (incidentally, a tree farm, but not Christmas trees). said lot is on a mountainous road with little to no traffic. our 6 year old dog roams free, and we had planned on letting little Ruby roam as well. but now she hides under the trampoline! might i add that as of late it has been about 11-13 degrees (fahrenheit!) and there is a great deal of snow and ice on the ground. i am not crawling through snow, ice, and rotting fallen leaves under the trampoline to catch the little bugger! it's a fun trick alright...
