Puppies for Adoption

A "friend of the frog's" has started doing great things at our local animal shelter. She became aware of the need for pet adoption and is working to do something about it! Kudos to her and may we all be inspired by her willingness to take action. In an effort to support her and the pups, we will post regular pics of puppies available for adoption. Just last week, a precious Schnauzer named Edward found a home rather than being put down.

The most recent adoption candidates are adorable!

These 5 pups are all male and the vet said 6 weeks old. They seem to have some lab and who knows what else? They are super cute and very playful. If you are looking to expand your family to include a furry playmate, or know someone who is, please contact:

Easter Mini Sessions with EPC

See the message below from Emily Cook regarding the Easter Mini Sessions:

"Due to the inclimate weather and the effects of Friday night's rain on my landscaping, I am going to cancel today's Easter Mini Sessions and move all appointments to next Saturday, April 4. You will keep your same appointment time and walk up clients are still welcome. Hopefully, a beautiful day awaits us then. Please pass this information along to anyone who might need to know. If for some reason, you can't make it that day let me know so I can give your spot to someone else. "

Thanks,
Emily

Silhouette success!

We had such a fun time hosting Clay Rice, the silhouette artist. The silhouettes were all beautiful! What a talent! It was amazing to watch. The man had more talent in his pinky than most of us have in our whole bodies. In a matter of minutes (30 seconds of looking at the child), he was able to create heirlooms that families will treasure for a lifetime! We have had several requests already and have plans to bring him back to the store sometime soon. We'll keep you posted of any plans he has to return to our area. Here are a few pics from the day:

Isn't he adorable?

Beautiful girls..like mother, like daughter!

The cool toy Clay had the kids hold while cutting their silhouette was a hit!

A very serious "model."

There's always time for play here at the freckled frog!
