  6. Hey LoLO!!!!!! Long time no see. I saw you on the IF page and had to come visit. I haven't forgotten you, missy. I OWE you big time.

    Love your dog portrait. My dog will balance a bone on her nose but will not sit for long. The second I release my hand from the biscuit she thinks it is time to eat it.

  9. This is a fantastic picture Laurel. I love the red collar.

    Your gift hasn't arrived yet, but I'm sure as that dog ate that biscuit that they will arrive in a flash.

    Laurel, can you send me my party card you made. See you give me an inch and I take a mile.

    For S in Studio I say Sweet and for L in Lolo I say Laurel. To everyone else you are Studio Lolo but to me you are Sweet Laurel.

    I had a blast yesterday. Thank you for helping make it one.

    Love Renee xoxoxo
