My maker Pamela Dervarits from Our Pioneer Homestead took this first picture of me while I was patiently waiting for someone to come along and see how sweet I wa s which in this case was Mindy. Pamela, Quebec Folk-Artist and Artisan, resides in the Montreal region. I was then safely packed, Pamela believes in safety first, and boxed to be carried off to Iowa.
I was so glad when I arrived. I needed to stretch and was excited to meet my new owner! Mindy and I had a nice visit and we decided we needed to take some photos to show Pamela I would be very well taken care of in my new home.
Here I am just chillin on the front porch. I bearly (yes, I spelled that right) got on the sofa and Mindy snapped my picture before I could even sit down!

It was so comfy I decided just to lay down!

Here I am in front of the window…

Another complimentary pose of myself…

Look at all these old Country Living magazines I can flip through!
Then we went outside. Here I am posing by the pretty flowers!
Before I left them, I wanted to see if the y smelled good…
Mindy said I did such a good job posing for the camera that I could have me a piece of pie! Hurry up Mindy, take the picture so I can dig in before it’s all gone!!

I think I am really going to like it here!
Don’t forget to stop over at Pamela’s, she’s one talented lady, after all, she made ME!
