Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Early Morning Misty Air lovers, AKA – EMMA!

Did I ever tell you that story? How Emma was named? OMG, can you imagine me waiting to get Emma? It was excruciating. Every day moved like snails through molasses. The breeder, BoBac, had to decide which girl I was going to get so they had to run them all through the ropes of what hounds they wanted to keep and show. After all of that waiting and wringing of hands they wound up selling all of them. That part was really, really hard. I will never do that again. It was just too stressful.

Anyway, we had fun picking a name. My Mom and I wanted to call her STAR! My Dad absolutely freaked out and said that it sound like a name for a stripper. LOL! My Dad is the one who actually came up with the name Emma. He was taking a walk one morning to the park with my Mom and he heard a Mother calling for your little girl in the front yard. She kept shouting “Emma, Emma, Emma – breakfast”!

I thought that was so cute. So Emma it was. However, I wanted to link that name to the name of her Mother. Emma’s Mom’s name is FIRST LIGHT, AKA – DAWN.

So, I came up with Emma’s full name for her papers in honor of her Mom.

EARLY MORNING MISTY AIR……………I just love it. I call her that all the time. As a matter of fact, we were laying in bed this morning and the air was misting with rain. I told her that this was her kind of morning. So I snuck back to get my camera to try and capture the moment.

She is stretched out under her summer comforter. It’s so light and comfy.

    These photos are so soft and warm looking. I also think that a name like “Early Morning Misty Air” shows that you were definitely influenced by the 60s and 70s. I am sure Our Emma thanks her grandpa for his input.

    Oh my goodness. You mean she’s got to share HER bed? Well, I hope she gets belly rubbed to sleep if she’s got to share. THE NERVE of some people! Those pictures are way too sweet. She looks so comfy and content. She has no idea how lucky she is.

    She is the best gal ever! It cracks me up that she barks for her summer comforter. I try to air it out during the day but she will bark at it like crazy! A girl needs her comfort! LOL!
