Good morning Stampers!

Today I have a couple of fun cards to share using the Party Piggy bundle. I have a few friends that are huge fans of Pigs or pig shaped things- they live in the city and have never actually owned a pig, although if they had - they just may like them even more. (I have a story to share at the end of this from my own life on the farm).

Can you tell they are bouncing in the Bouncy House?

My pig story- When I was about 8 years old my family moved back to Oregon from the San Francisco bay area- to a small farm in Aurora. The farm had 7 acres, a house, barn and several small out buildings all fenced in to an area referred to as the barn yard. In the barn yard we had 2 cherry trees, a pear tree, rabbits for 4H, a bunch of chickens and Rosie our pig. Granted I was small and young but Rosie was HUGE! 

Rosie also thought she was a dog. She was always trying to run back through the gate with us when we were done with chores. My mom used to cook huge pots of lovely smelling vegetable stew for Rosie (raw vegetables we were told would give her gas). Rosie died not the way you might think but because a gate was left open and being the dog she thought she was, she was chasing the cars that went by in front of our house and was finally after many near misses hit and died. I imagine she caused a bit of damage to the vehicle that hit her but I was not old enough to care. It was a sad day in our house. Rosie lived with us for probably 3 years, and I have many fond memories of her.
