Tell me, who can't help but LOVE those little faces??

So just for today (and the special guest I've got just for you) I have a few puppies to cuddle with, because there is nothing more sqeezeable than a puppy. ;-)

So along with the balloons and streamers and confetti and toe-tapping music...is this... ::smile::

Are you ready to meet my guest for today?

Not quite so fast. I got a few other fun details to share with you!! : D

First, did you see Erica Vetsch's blog party post from earlier?? It posted at midnight pacific time, so go check it out! All my posts over the next week have awesome giveaways! (if I do say so myself...)

And TOMORROW, tomorrow is going to be fun!!

Don't miss it 'kay?

And REMEMBER to answer my trivia question, because all correct trivia answers get two extra entries to win today's prize AND are entered for a seperate prize all their own. :-)) Now...here is our guest, Ruth Logan Herne!!

Who would consist of your perfect party crowd?

My perfect party crowd is easy-peasy. First the Seekers and the Seeker Villagers because they rock the big kahuna in all ways and they LIKE ME.  Really, Casey, it isn't easy to find a crowd of such easy-going people willing to appease my inflated ego by laughing at my jokes, giving me hugs, accepting my big teeth as just another part of the whole, and they understand my fetish for coffee, chocolate and cute shoes. How rare is that, I ask you????

Then you can throw in my family because I wouldn't be where I am without them, and make sure they bring those grandbabies!  So stinkin' cute!

And I've got some old teachers I'd include. Sr. Mariel from Nazareth Academy. Sr. Mary Cordis and Mrs. Fenlon (Steiner) from Sacred Heart. Mrs. Bagley and Tom Dowd from Hilton. Oh, and don't forget the disciples. I'd like a few words with some of them. And the women at the cross:  I mean how seriously did they rock????  I'd love to help them prepare a meal, get a woman's POV of that whole thing.

And then I've got a few close friends, not a ton, but enough to not exactly be a hermit. Yet.  Casual dress, naturally!

Puppies and party streamers….should the two go together?

And puppies should be coupled with ANYTHING, but not inside because they are naughty creatures with poor toileting tendencies.

So we'll visit the puppies outside and play with them in the grass...  And then put them in a kennel.

Would there be a whoopee cushion anywhere near your party premises? (be honest)

No. My buddy Karen White is a whoopee cushion gal. And it's hysterical. But in truth, no. Good food. And I'll  consider it my personal duty to make fun of people. Mostly Mary Connealy. I'd do it to Julie Lessman too, but she'd cry.

Baby.

Complete this thought:

The perfect party isn’t perfect without: without chocolate and Ruthy-cake!

What is Ruthy cake?? Whatever it is, I want a slice! :-))

Do you want to know what today's party prize is?? Sure you do, I would too. ;-)

I love Ruthy's books, doesn't this one look delightful??

Thanks Ruthy!!

And now...your TRIVIA QUESTION for the day:

What was my very first profile picture? (hint, find the first time I commented on my blog)
