Are you asking about my pigs?

 Okay, here we go -  my sister,Vicki, was a teacher at Agua Fria HS, Avondale. Their mascot is an owl so she had started her collection of owls.  I had to start some type of collection of my own so I started with unicorns. My niece (Kristi) started bragging about her collection of horses and unicorns and how they were so much better than mine (yes, that irked me a little bit). So, I wanted a different collection. At that time, Lee had just joined the Phoenix Police Department. So, one day when Mom and Vicki and I were shopping, they came up to me and handed me this little piggie.  I was going to 'collect' pigs. PIGS (Pride, Integrity, Guts, Service). And, that is how it got started.  It isn't so bad with one pig here or one pig there. However, thousands get to be a bit much.  eBay?  how can I decide which ones to eBay?! NOT.  And, some I got the idea that there are 3 little pigs and a big bad wolf - so collect them in groups of 3 and the wolf has to be a part of them.   And, let me ask you -  how many poopin' pigs do I need?  Alot!  It's the thought and I love them all because they all have a special meaning and come from everyone who has been so thoughtful.  Here are a couple pigtures (the best of my collection - Disney (should I say anything else)       

You can see the two Big Bad Wolfs. The original is the wolf hiding in the trees.

And, I will huff and puff and blooooow your house down (and then cough and cough because I can't huff and puff with all this pollution outside). LOL

Welcome to pinkpigycrafts pig pen. Just finished with holiday stuff and need to work on cleaning but who has time when Valentine projects coming up.
My pigworkstation is there in the lower part of the pigture with the ottlite on it. See it?

See all the pigs lining up around the ceiling areas.  I had to pack some to make room for Stampin' Up!
Happy pigtrails to you, pinkpigy@aol.com
