Giupetto and Gianna climb a Snow Mountain

Fun Photo Game - TAG You're it...

Shari at http://ciao-hound.blogspot.com/ just tagged me in this fun photo game...

The rules of this tag are:
1. open your first photo folder
2. scroll to the tenth photo
3. post the photo and the story behind it
4. tag five or more people

This is my picture:


This photo was taken May 2005. Gianna was only 5 months old here. She is wearing a onesie that I bought at the dollar store - that says "I am the Little Sister".
Here is the pattern to my earliest clothing designs:
1-Go to dollar store and buy infant clothing
2-This was a onesie, so I cut off the bottom and hemmed it.
3-Take a nice deep seam down the front, as the dogs chest is much smaller than their back, and this brings the sleeves forward.
And there you have it. I have made them team sports teas, sweatshirts and baby dresses (where I have used the headband that came with the dress, as a belt to keep the dress tucked in underneath).


I'm tagging:

Trick or Treat - We Love Howl-O-Ween

Once upon a time.... I was a little boy. My name is Giupetto. I was born in Wisconsin, and have a brother named Gizmo. My breeder's name is Judy. She used to call me her Little Devil.
Now my brother lives in Florida, and I live in New York with my Mom and Dad (and now my sister Gianna, but we'll get to that).

Here I am at only 4 months old, and Mommy said she just had to make me a devils costume because now I was HER little devil.

THIS WAS HOWL-O-WEEN - 2005

















6 months later Mom and Dad decided to get me a little sister. Her name is Gianna. She was born in Idaho, where they have lots of potatoes. Mommy says that is why her feet smell like potatoes.


Here we are pretending to be Bride and Groom for HOWL-O-WEEN 2006. Mommy entered us in a photo contest that Petco was having. We didn't win, but Mommy says that is because we didn't know as many people as some of the other pets. I'm not sure what that has to do with being the cutest and not winning.



HOWL-O-WEEN 2007 - Mommy wanted to give us costumes that fit our personality. She said I am a sneak thief so I would be a convict.

She said Gianna is such a happy girl, always frolicing around, that she would make her a clown and call it "Frolic the Clown". (But Gianna would not leave her hat on when we went to Petco that year for halloween.)


















This is my favorite toy - we call it Ghosty.





Time for HOWL-O-WEEN 2008.

I was a bumble bee and Gianna was a ladybug. I have to admit we both looked cute. We walked in the little kids parade that year in our town. We were the only doggies, but they gave us each a number to pin on so we could get judged like the rest of the kids.

It was fun and we were so tired when we went home.





















HOWL-O-WEEN 2009



















Hi, this is Gianna. Giupetto wanted to be spiders this year, but I like my ladybug better.

Mommy let me dress like a ladybug for the fair this year, which was Oct 10th, but we have to dress like spiders on Halloween.

These are our traveling sweaters:
