High 5 for Friday :: March 29, 2013

1. Look at this face! Sophia is here!! Last night...her first here & away from her liter mates... was rough, but after a few hours she stopped fussing in her crate & Mr. B & I got some shut eye. Thanks to Bridgette & the Leyendecker family from Great Lakes Gun Dogs for everything!!

2. What a week! If Sophia wasn't so cute, this would have been picture 1. Lots of work at VMG and orders to fill for K. Batty Design & Stationery. Yay!!

3. On Sunday last weekend, Mr. B & I took a drive through Green-Wood Cemetery here in Brooklyn. It is a historic site on so many levels & boasts some great sculpture...albeit they're grave markers, but beautiful nonetheless.

4. The great letterpress adventure continues! I got some more ink this week, as well as Super Soap, gloves & wipes to aid my clean up routine.

5. I love this graphic from Calypso's Pinterest boards. I do love the life I live!! I hope you do too. 

Happy Weekend!

The New Studio Mascot Is...

In case you missed this on Facebook yesterday...{drum roll!!!!!} .........

Please welcome Ms. Aqua!! Or as we will call her... Sophia.

Sophia comes from the Greek word for wisdom. Weighty for a small pup, but we hope it will be something she can live up to.

If you'd like to learn more about the Braque Francais Pyrenees breed, you can read up on Wikipedia or check out Gun Dog Magazine. Also give some love to our breeders, Great Lakes Gun Dogs.

Instagram followers, get ready for lots of puppy pictures...I go to Chicago to pick her up on March 28th.

Puppy Love

{Ms. Purple from Great Lakes Gun Dogs - might be ours! We find out in March!}

The Battys are getting a new mascot. A little 4-legged girl will be arriving in March! She is a Braque Francais Pyrenees - a small French Pointer. How cute is that face??
