Why Instagram is so popular

Instagram is a mobile photo-sharing app, but is also a social network. It resembles Twitter with followers only for you don't post a text update, you post a photo instead. The app allows you to add photos using a any type of filter and you can also share your picture to your Facebook profile or Twitter account. But why is Instagram so popular? I believe it's because it's social, I love to share about the things I buy, what I eat, sometimes what I'm doing, or even hanging out with friends. You can post about anything for your friends or others to see. It gives users the ability to add a little bit of creativity into their day. Instagram is a great way to follow your favorite TV shows, celebrities, bands,  and even different types of fitness, fashion or makeup accounts. You can follow whatever you're into. Instagram allows you to check things out by using the hash-tag the same as Twitter. For example if I wanted to use #winter2016, it'll bring up any type of picture that people are after posting about winter using that same hashtag. Instagram also gives you the option to post videos too. In my opinion, this is my favorite social media app. I check into this more than Facebook (and that's quite a lot) you could say I'm a little addicted.. in saying that, I think Instagram will be very popular for a while and I certainly encourage people to look into using it!

Life with a Morkie

This is my girl, Kaiah. Isn't she the sweetest?
Kaiah is a one and a half year old Morkie, which people refer to as designer dogs. Morkie's are half Maltese, half Yorkshire Terrier. They usually range from 4-12 pounds, and their coat is usually long and soft. Their ears can either be pointy like a Yorkie or floppy like a Maltese. My pups are floppy like a Maltese. Kaiah is super playful and loves attention, but what dog doesn't? She loves when you stand  up bottles and she knocks them over with her paws like bowling pins, it's too cute. Whenever I have to go in the car and I ask if she wants to go, she knows exactly what I'm talking about and will run right to the car barking. Same goes for when she has to get brushed, groomed (which she doesn't like so much) or getting a treat. She will also let you know when she is hungry, she will go out and scratch at the dog food cupboard filled with treats and her dog food. She also hides her toys/treats in strange places for days and then goes and cries and makes us move whatever it is so she can get to it, she is too smart lol. When my last dog passed away my parents agreed there was no more dogs coming into the house, until they seen this one. She looked just like my old dog Riley, and they just had to get her. Not a day goes by that we don't regret making the decision of making her an important part of our family!
