I had a photo of myself with my Eldest Sons beautiful dog "Boo" that I knew I wanted to scrap. The lovely Kerri over at home and Scrapped was also doing a step by step that I wanted to join in with, so I used the photo for both.
Beautiful Boo
The journalling tag documents that after I lost my little dog Scruffy after 17 years I had a bit of a wall up. I love animals, but I found myself not being able to let myself get too attached. Then along came Boo who worked her magic and I gradually felt the wall coming down. I still haven't been able to get myself another dog, but you never know , maybe one day. But in the meantime I have Boo to love.
I really enjoy participating in Step by Steps or blind scraps as well as it makes me scrap in a way I normally wouldn't think to do.
Thanks so much for calling by and I really appreciate any comments
Love, Peace and Kindness

Awwwww, Mary! What a sweet story. I absolutely love your gorgeous page, design, and photo, but am drawn in my your touching journaling! Thank you so much for joining us at Challenge YOUrself this month. We are all very happy that you did.
Oh Mary, I can relate to losing a much loved fur baby, it really is a hard thing to go through.. and I am sure in time you just might be able to have another fur baby, not to replace your special friend but to add to your life.. lovely layout, great design and wonderful photo...
Hands up for little Boo!!!! Your page is so sweet! Thanks for joining Challenge YOUrself! Hugs Åsa
Love your page and the photo of the two of you. XXX
Mary, such a sweet photo and story....can relate, so hard to loose our furbabies. We loose our Anakin and Nini the last 3 years and then came Gurí with all that puppy energy and happiness and begging for love! He turned one yesterday, 10 months with us. Beautiful layout! Thanks for joining us at Challenge YOUrself this month.

Love your page Mary - such happy colors - and BOO is adorable! The loss of a beloved pet is hard - we lost our first girl Lily 7 yrs ago and we still miss her. -Thanks for playing along with us at the Challenge YOUrself Blog!
I truly understand the pain of losing a beloved pet and yes, the wall that we put up as well; but how could you not love that beautiful Boo? We had those dogs at home on the farm and not only were they beautiful, they were smart as well. They could round up a mob of sheep on their own, just with Dad's various whistles to gently guide them. A beautiful page and I'm so glad your wall is a bit lower.
