A Dream Realized...At Petco

April 7, 2011

{Blue & Cream Polka Dot Top: Old Navy, Red Cardi: Target, Wide Leg Trousers: AE via Plato's Closet, Platforms: c/o Blowfish Shoes}. (I feel very patriotic today!)

I discovered last weekend that my dream is to: have a nice sized home on a ton of land that is located near a major city (I am such a city girl it's ridiculous), so that I can have a rescued dog and horse farm. (I don't know if I have gone it depth about my love of animals, but it runs deep in my veins, saying I LOVE animals is an understatement)! I realized this new dream, after going to Petco with my mom and sis to get some free samples of dog food for the boyzz. This was such a mistake...They were having a pet adoption day....I wanted to adopt this little dachshund/Chihuahua mix dog named: Dale. Mom of course said no (love you mom ;)), since she has 3 dogs and we can't have dogs at our apartment. So the dream was hatched right then and there, at Petco.

I told hubbs about my dream, and he said ok...but wanted to add a few requests of his own. So now we will be living in our dream house on a large piece of land, close to the city, with a rescued dog and horse farm, a 4 wheeler track, a lake for wave running, and a swimming pool. Sounds perfect to me ;).

ps: Do you have a birthday in April/best month of the year? Email me a pic of your fine self, your blog link/website link if you have one, and your birth date for a special bloggy birthday party post! Send them to me at Morgan@meetvirginiadesign.com and if you could have them to me by April 11th that would be great! Thanks friends! You can also go {HERE} for more information.

    That top is really pretty and I love how you buttoned the cardigan to accentuate the ruffles on the top!

    Your dream sounds lovely!!

    My daughter asked if you could please adopt her too. She loves dogs and horses. Though I would never give that girl up for anything in the world. I hope your dreams come true fast.

    That dream sounds like PERFECTION!! I was always the little girl who asked for a horse EVERY year for any gift-giving holiday and now as an adult dream about the day that I can make that wish come true for myself. Animals are the best!And I so would not have been able to resist Dale! He sounds like a cutie :)

    In fashion news, I really like how you buttoned just the top button to leave some of the sweet blouse sticking out. Just lovely.

    I like how the ruffles of your top come up over your cardigan, so cute! And I love animals too, especially horses. That's very sweet that you want to dedicate time to rescuing them.

    That's a good dream... I have a weakness for adopted pups too! I've got two of them so far and I can't be taken to places that are having pet adoptions.
