Wiggle Walk, Paw It Forward & True Colors - Turquoise

I am soooooooo excited...I've never won anything and now I've won
Thanks to Mason Dixie for hosting the contest and thanks to all of you who voted for me..
.I will continue to wiggle when I walk and make you proud

What a surprise I had when we got back to Oak Ridge and mom went to the P.O.   -  
All the way from across the pond in England....I was a little tired from the Nashville trip and the partying with Pink Baby.....but, with a little help from mommy I opened my package and found a terrific little toy and some wonderful treats and a beautiful card.... 
 I will post photos from the package a little later - along with the  PAW IT FORWARD rules so that I too can  Paw it Forward!     Thanks to all the wonderful animals at Gennasus - 
 I'll do you justice a little later!

This week's TRUE COLOR  is Turquoise -  an opaque, blue-to-green  color -  

It is the color of the TIFFANY GIFT BOX
this is, of course, one of mom's favorite gift boxes -  when there is a turquoise box under the tree at Christmas or peeking out of Daddys' pocket any other time - it puts a smile on mom's face!

this is a bowl of mom's-it's kinda cool.....her friend Erme gave it to her...they're always sending each other gifts -  
when Ford reintroduced the Thunderbird they did so in Turquoise -  
this isn't mom's but she likes it
a lot of jewelry from the Southwest is Turquoise  -  
mom has a few pieces but she's not real fond of it....but her best friend, Erme, loves the stuff  so mom buys it for her if she sees something she thinks Erme might like.  

Mom's into dragonflies, it's her totem you know,  so she found this picture of a turquoise dragonfly.

    Great selection of Turquoise.
    Didn't know about the Tiffiny boxes - am obviously living a deprived life - weep.
    Love the Dragonfly, they fascinate me too.

  17. Congratulations Checkers on your win! That was a great turquoise post also. We love dragonflies too especially the little man - he gets really exicted when they visit our pond and his mum tries to take photos of them - not usually very successfully!

    lots of woofs
