What I Wore Sunday

This week my What I Wore Sunday post almost became a What to Wear Sunday question and answer session!!  As time goes on and I get taller, my dresses grow shorter and shorter to the point where I just don't feel comfortable wearing them.  Being a constantly growing teenager is getting pretty annoying!

Anyway, I was able to find a dress that wasn't too too short, and here it is.

Clifford decided he wanted to make an appearance this week.

The shoes are American Eagle black flats from Payless ShoeSource,

The dress a Bonnie Jean from Burlington Coat Factory,

and a Jessica H. shrug from Stien Mart.

Oh, The Joys of Homeschooling!

School has been going very well, but of course, it's crazy.  The more I delve into the year, the busier I become and the less time I have on social media.  If I miss a Modest Monday or What I Wore Sunday post, please know I probably have a pile of school to do and try my best to remember that I indeed have a blog!!! :)

One of the reasons I might have more to do is because I got behind because my dog laid on my homework.  No, not ate, laid.

As you can see, I was peacefully doing my history and poetry reading when our dog Clifford decided he wanted me to pet him.  So I stop my reading, put my book down, and pet him.  He suddenly decides to lay down on my book.

( I zoomed in so you can see the corner of Fingal's Quest underneath his collar. )

Then when I finally finagle the book out from under him and go back to my reading, I feel a gentle touch on my back.  Clifford had rolled over and his paws were resting on me.  I just love homeschooling!!

Also, to add on to my post from yesterday, today was Favorite Sport/Sport team Day for Homeschool Spirit Week!! To learn more about it, check out this link here

Then, yesterday evening was AWESOME!!!!!  The Hobbit dinner turned out great!!  Also to celebrate Bilbo and Frodo's birthday (The reason for National Hobbit Day) we watched The Desolation of Smaug for the first time!!  I love it more than the first!!  If you are following my Pinterest, expect to see a lot of Tauriel and Legolas ( I will only mention those two, though the list goes on!!)

We Got a Dog!!!!!

About two weeks ago we adopted a dog!!  His name is Clifford, and the vet. thinks he is a 5-year-old Mastiff mix, maybe part Bullmastiff or English Mastiff.  When we brought him home we were surprised to find that he was already trained.  He knows sit & paw, only does his business outside and is crate trained.  He has the sweetest face, but can look a bit scary at times.  In truth, he's a big baby and wants someone to pet him all day.  He never barks, nips, or bites and when he eats treats out of your hand, you only feel his tongue and his lips. He has only given kisses to my dad & myself, but not very much.  I personally, wanted a small dog, but Clifford is just as good as one.  Our family could not ask for a better dog!
