Today we join our friends at the 2 Brown Dawgs blog for This ‘N That Thursday.

“This ‘N That Thursday is for those times when you want to post about unrelated topics or each topic isn’t quite long enough to make up a whole post. It can be anything you want, so feel free to grab the button and join us!”

This is what I did to yesterday’s Wordless Wednesday photo, I added some words, a favorite poem of mine. This poem is always going through my mind when I am out hunting with Norman.

This picture was taken this past Sunday when we took the gang to the pheasant farm. John took this picture of Norman and I walking side by side. He is my hunting buddy, my soulmate, my best friend.

I am going to do what Jodi Stone at Heart Like A Dog did and make this photo into a canvas print. She did a review for a company that will make canvas prints and posted it up on her blog. The photo’s that she had turned into a canvas turned out really nice. If you would read her review and see her canvas print hop on over to Heart Like A Dog and check it out.

Glory’s First Birthday

Tuesday was Glory’s first Birthday. I had to work that day so when I got home I quick whipped up the birthday cake recipe that I got from Misty Shores Chesapeakes and had a little party for Glory.

Glory’s first bday.

It’s my Birthday!

This is MY cake!

Yummy Yummy Yummy

I shared with everyone.

Birthday picture.

The cake gave some of us glowing eyes.

The gang loved Glory’s Birthday cake and they are sad that they have to wait until May for the next Birthday.

A needle in a haystack – or Glory? 

I still have not found that darn needle. All the dogs are doing well so it must be in my couch somewhere’s.
