Smokey, Stella and Snowmen

I have a different "S" post today! I think it is super! I love our pets. My son J has three dogs, two of them are "S" names! Smokey the boxador and Stella the blue heeler mix! But I simply adore CHRISTmas! So I do love some snowmen! So here is my S post story.
My oldest is moving back to the North area. She is Noelle! She was born in December! HeeHee! She gets that all the time, are you a CHRISTmas baby!? So in the process of her move she has a set of 12 Snowmen dishes! So cute! The photos are not the greatest! But she was trying to sell them! I thought they would look superb with my red Pavillion Princess House plates.So they are sitting in my overstuffed garage! I am the new owner of them! Sweet! So here are photos of Smokey, Stella and the Snowmen!
They are my "S" post for Alphabe Thursday! Now visit me here and then step over to Jenny's and say hi! Please visit as many "S" participates as you can!
Here are the Snowmen dishes! So sweet! So charming for a CHRISTmas dinner with phamily and friends!
Here is Smokey. This dog is so silly. He reminds us of a cartoon character! He will sit up in a chair if you ask him nicely. Having a treat nearby doesn't hurt either! He was not interested in posing tonight! Such a celebrity! Hee Hee!
Here is Stella.  She was a dog J found  three years ago. Someone had dumped her and she was skittish for the first two and a half years. She is much better but hates posing for pictures. She is like a dog in the witness protection program. I think she knows maybe someone who hurt her might be looking over their shoulder . I think she is very happy with us. She just isn't much into photo ops.
Now have a super evening and go visit some S posts soon!

Such a shame that Stella was dumped. I bet she's very happy to have found a good home.

I love those dishes!! That's a pretty big collections! Ha!
The doggies are so cute. We just added a new guinea pig to our household yesterday...
A shelter near my house is being forced to move and they need to adopt out all of their animals before the end of the month. I have been trying to talk my hubby into getting a kitty. It's such a special thing to take in strays or adopt a pet and give them a second lease on life....
Hope your week has been going good!

The snowmen plates are so sweet...and of course so are the dogs. I'm glad someone else cares for these 'angels'.

Your dogs are so cute! I love your plates.

I'm glad Stella got a second chance at happiness.

And your Christmas plates are darling!

=)

I think you'll be able to set a very festive table this winter with your "new" plates. Your pets are so sweet and they sure look happy and at home. Take care.

Smokey is such a handsome boy! Stella does look a little wary of the camera. Our Mulligan is a rescue pup and he, too, is wary of the camera. Curious, huh?

That is a cute set of dishes. I wonder if your daughter will one day change her mind and ask for them back again. At least she will know where to find them!

I love all the S's and what a fun set of dishes - getting me anxious for winter and Christmas!

My girl's would love to eat their morning cereal from these bowls. I love Christmas too. It's the reason I tolerate winter : ) Wish we could have us some doggy love but alas allergies. These two look like sweethearts.

With your newly acquired dishes you'll have to do a winter tablescape.

I wasn't able to join in for Alphabe-Thursday S post...but will have to post a little earlier each week and then join in. My work schedule has changed, so hopefully, I get a routine going. And for some reason, I thought I have already been following you! Oh, well...now I am at #260 :o)

Love your pictures!

It's always so fun visiting you!

Thanks for linking up.
