Last Saturday, we got up bright and early for
our yard sale. It was a beautiful
day. Knowing it was impossible to let a
pug sit inside when there would be lots of people coming to the house, we let
her come out to be the official security detail. She took her job very seriously checking out
each and every person who came along including cute kids who just had to pet
her.
She even took a look at some of the merchandise
that was for sale. She could hardly
believe her eyes when she saw that we were selling this beautiful velvet
painting that has been hanging in our basement for years. A couple people seemed interested. One even asked if we had more…maybe one of Elvis. No, this was the only one. Eventually, a nice man decided to take it home with him
and seemed pleased with his purchase.
At one point, this silly looking dog with big
ears came up the driveway. He was a
little bit excited and wouldn’t calm down long enough for a decent
picture. He and Olive saw eye to eye
because he was short, but they didn’t seem to get along very well.
As soon as the people stopped coming and all the
leftovers were packed up, a dog finally got some well-deserved rest.
If you saw my post last Friday, you will be
pleased to know that the mismatched glasses and the huge martini glass
sold. The mismatched glasses went to a
neighbor kid who was buying them for his parents. Wasn’t that nice? And the woman who bought the martini glass
was quite happy with her purchase. She
said that it will be much appreciated when she has a bad day. We were glad it went to a good home. But the green beaded trim is still
available. Any takers?

well, i had been thinking of that huge martini glass as a margarita vessel, myself. glad it found a good home.
olive looks like she takes everything seriously. :)
She does. And yet she doesn't. I think that the martini glass could work for margaritas too.
What a cute blog...my fav pic is the one of Olive looking at the velvet painting. Thanks for a chuckle and some cute, but well done, pics to go along with it~
Oh Olive, I just love it when you write and photograph Olive...and her adventures. Glad the sale was a success!!

Olive is so adorable!

Haha. Olive, you're a good guard dog on yard sale day. Fun pictures. I missed your post on the items for sale so had to go see the green beads. They are rather pretty but not my taste either. Glad the glasses went to good homes. :) Don't you love old pictures? Of yourself? Fun posts.
What a good dog Olive is! And so beautiful! She looks very serious in her duties. :-) I'm glad you had a successful yard sale.
Lovely photos from the dogs!

Olive is awesome, and a hard worker to boot. :). Her rest was well deserved!
Glad giant martini glass found a good home where it will be put to purposeful use! Lol.
